      <description>&lt;p&gt;Our formulation of a new AI/ML-based, real-time computational framework aims to learn and flag defects in software as early as the time of commit in the developers&amp;rsquo; repositories.&lt;/p&gt;

        A characterization of the software development metadata is presented in terms of distributions of data that best captures the trends in the datasets, to feed into the machine learning components of ZeroIn to exploit connectivity among the sets of repositories, commits,  and developers.

      &lt;div class=&#34;article-style&#34;&gt;
        Using multiple classifiers we verify the feasibility of using metadata from synthetic datasets modeled by a characterization of a few large software repositories and developer profiles.  Results show that the metadata-based learning approach appears promising towards early flagging of potentially buggy commits in software repositories.

        We present preliminary results from characterizing the distribution of 452 million commits in a metadata listing from GitHub repositories. Based on multiple distributions, we find the best fits and second best fits across different ranges in the data. The characterization is aimed at synthetic repository generation suitable for use in simulation and machine learning.

        Our algorithm &lt;strong&gt;cuPPA&lt;/strong&gt; generates scale-free networks using the preferential-attachment model, custom-designed to exploit multiple GPUs. We generate extremely large scale-free networks of &lt;strong&gt;4 trillion edges&lt;/strong&gt; in less than 8 minutes using 1,008 NVIDIA Volta GPUs of the Summit supercomputer.  This represents the first ever graph network generation at this scale of parallel execution with over thousand GPUs. Moreover, our algorithm is uniquely suitable for generating networks in a &lt;em&gt;streaming mode&lt;/em&gt; without the need for explicitly storing (writing to disk) the entire network, and is suitable for targeting even larger scales with quadrillions of edges.

      &lt;div class=&#34;article-style&#34;&gt;
        We study the impact of edge additions on the community structure using Lancichinetti-Fortunato-Radicchi (LFR) benchmark networks. We show that, for a fixed network size, the impact of edge additions is greater on networks with initially weak community structure than on networks with strongly clustered structures. Also, we find that the perception of the impact is also dependent on the community detection algorithm used to uncover communities.
      &lt;/div&gt;

      &lt;div class=&#34;article-style&#34;&gt;
        A novel parallel algorithm, cuPPA, is presented for generating random scale-free networks using the preferential attachment model. The algorithm is custom-designed for &amp;lsquo;single instruction multiple data (SIMD)&amp;rsquo; for GPUs. Our algorithm is the first to exploit GPUs, and also the fastest implementation available today, for scale-free networks.  On an NVidia GeForce 1080 GPU, cuPPA generates a scale-free network of two billion edges in less than 3 s. On multi-GPU platforms, cuPPA-Hash generates a scale-free network of 16 billion edges in less than 7 s using a machine consisting of 4 NVidia Tesla P100 GPUs.

      <title>COVID-relevant Scalable Computational Research Directions and Tools</title>
      <link>https://kalper.net/kp/talk/covid-relevant-scalable-computational-research-directions-and-tools/</link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 09 Apr 2020 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
      <guid>https://kalper.net/kp/talk/covid-relevant-scalable-computational-research-directions-and-tools/</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This seminar conveys some directions and technical ideas being pursued by the Discrete Computing Systems Group of the Computer Science and Mathematics Division, in collaboration with others at the lab. Some of the scalable computational tools ready for applying to challenging computational problems are presented. Actual working codes ready for customization to COVID-related efforts are described, which are built for scaling to supercomputing platforms such as Summit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Topics that are covered include:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A high resolution simulator, &lt;code&gt;ExaCorona&lt;/code&gt;, that scales from laptops to leadership class supercomputers, is outlined that uses a discrete event model of virus spread, with probabilistically timed state transitions at the individual level across millions of individuals represented with arbitray geography and mobility characteristics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A clonable simulation framework, &lt;code&gt;CloneX&lt;/code&gt;, is introduced that enables millions of &amp;ldquo;what-if&amp;rdquo; scenarios to be executed rapidly on thousands of GPUs of Summit and similar supercomputers. An SEIR-based epidemiological model is outlined for numerous what-if simulations of disease spread that can be executed for country-scale populations like India&amp;rsquo;s, with ‘what-if’ scenarios, each varying in the outbreak points (hotspots), quarantines, vaccinations and hospitalizations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A machine learning pipeline for the prediction of material structure properties directly from their neutron scattering profiles (development as part of the ExaLearn ECP co-design project). A brief overview of this system is provided, which is being applied for studies of new therapeutic targets and viral protein-structure-assisted drug design studies related to the COVID outbreak.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Network science methods are outlined for detecting information cascades in time varying large-scale social communication networks. We discuss its implications for detecting occurrence/response or epidemic related events from Twitter and similar global interaction systems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
