Dean, David (TJNAF)5/8/23, 9:30 AM
The world is full of computing devices that calculate, monitor, analyze, and control processes. The underlying technical advances within computing hardware have been further enhanced by tremendous algorithmic advances across the spectrum of the sciences. The quest -- ever present in humans -- to push the frontiers of knowledge and understanding requires continuing advances in the development...

Diefenthaler, Markus (Jefferson Lab)5/8/23, 10:00 AMPlenary
In today's Nuclear Physics (NP), the exploration of the origin, evolution, and structure of the universe's matter is pursued through a broad research program at various collaborative scales, ranging from small groups to large experiments comparable in size to those in high-energy physics (HEP). Consequently, software and computing efforts vary from DIY approaches among a few researchers to...

Cranmer, Kyle (University of Wisconsin-Madison)5/8/23, 4:00 PMPlenary
Instead of focusing on the concrete challenges of incremental changes to HEP driven by AI/ML, it is perhaps a useful exercise to think through more radical, speculative changes. What might be enabled if we embraced a dramatically different approach? What would we lose? How would those changes impact the computational, organizational, and epistemological nature of the field?

Pedro, Kevin (Fermilab)5/8/23, 4:30 PMPlenary
Simulation is a critical component of high energy physics research, with a corresponding computing footprint. Generative AI has emerged as a promising complement to intensive full simulation with relatively high accuracy compared to existing classical fast simulation alternatives. Such algorithms are naturally suited to acceleration on coprocessors, potentially running fast enough to match the...

Shadura, Oksana (University Nebraska-Lincoln (US))5/9/23, 10:00 AMTrack 7 - Facilities and VirtualizationPlenary
The large data volumes expected from the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) present challenges to existing paradigms and facilities for end-user data analysis. Modern cyberinfrastructure tools provide a diverse set of services that can be composed into a system that provides physicists with powerful tools that give them straightforward access to large computing resources, with low barriers to entry....

Eulisse, Giulio, Rohr, David (CERN)5/10/23, 9:00 AMTrack 5 - Sustainable and Collaborative Software EngineeringPlenary
ALICE has upgraded many of its detectors for LHC Run 3 to operate in continuous readout mode recording Pb-Pb collisions at 50 kHz interaction rate without trigger.

This results in the need to process data in real time at rates 50 times higher than during Run 2. In order to tackle such a challenge we introduced O2, a new computing system and the associated infrastructure. Designed and... -
Lawrence, David (Jefferson Lab)5/10/23, 9:40 AMPlenary
Streaming Readout Data Acquisition systems coupled with distributed resources spread over vast geographic distances present new challenges to the next generation of experiments. High bandwidth modern network connectivity opens the possibility to utilize large, general-use, HTC systems that are not necessarily located close to the experiment. Near real-time response rates and workflow...

Deconinck, Wouter (University of Manitoba)5/10/23, 10:05 AM
As nuclear physics collaborations and experiments increase in size, the data management and software practices in this community have changed as well. Large nuclear physics experiments at Brookhaven National Lab (STAR, PHENIX, sPHENIX), at Jefferson Lab (GlueX, CLAS12, MOLLER), and at the Electron-Ion Collider (ePIC) are taking different approaches to data management, building on existing...

Gao, Haiyan (Duke University)5/10/23, 11:15 AMPlenary
The U.S. Nuclear Physics community has been conducting long-range planning (LRP) for nuclear science since late 1970s. The process is known as the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee (NSAC) LRP with NSAC being an advisory body jointly appointed by the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. National Science Foundation. The last NSAC LRP was completed in 2015 and the current NSAC LRP is ongoing...

Gladney, Larry (Yale)5/11/23, 9:45 AM
Big science is represented by projects like those in particle physics. Big engineering is the application of engineering principles to large-scale projects that have a significant impact on society, like popular use of AI/ML (think ChatGPT and Google Bard). Both big science and big engineering are among the noblest and boldest applications of the human intellect to understanding the universe...

The WLCG infrastructure provides the compute power and the storage capacity for the computing needs of the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The infrastructure is distributed across over 170 data centers in more than 40 countries. The amount of consumed energy in WLCG to support the scientific program of the LHC experiments and its evolution depends on different factors:...

Monzani, Maria Elena (SLAC)5/11/23, 4:30 PMPlenary
The nature and origin of dark matter are among the most compelling mysteries of contemporary science. There is strong evidence for dark matter from its role in shaping the galaxies and galaxy clusters that we observe in the universe. Still, physicists have tried to detect dark matter particles for over three decades with little success.
This talk will describe the leading effort in that...

Thayer, Jana (SLAC)5/11/23, 5:00 PMPlenary
The increasing volumes of data produced at light sources such as the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) enable the direct observation of materials and molecular assemblies at the length and timescales of molecular and atomic motion. This exponential increase in the scale and speed of data production is prohibitive to traditional analysis workflows that rely on scientists tuning parameters...
