The BigHPC project is bringing together innovative solutions to improve the monitoring of heterogeneous HPC infrastructures and applications, the deployment of applications and the management of HPC computational and storage resources. It aims as well to alleviate the current storage performance bottleneck of HPC services.
The BigHPC project will address these challenges with a novel...
Machine learning (ML) has been shown to be an excellent method for improving performance in high-energy physics (HEP). Applications of ML in HEP are expanding, ranging from jet tagging with graph neural networks to fast simulations with 3DGANs and numerous classification algorithms in beam measurements. ML algorithms are expected to improve in performance as more data are collected during Run...
We will update on current status and activities in the CERN batch infrastructure, before concentrating on an introduction to remediation automation. Stackstorm is an open source product which has allowed us to automate activities such as health checks, alarm handling and provide enriched data to L2/L3 support for incidents. We will explain a little of the deployment, the architecture of the...
Short summary of the european HTC (condor) week held in Cuneo (10 - 14 october)
Report the progress made in the last six months to define the WLCG HEPscore benchmark. This is a joint work of the HEPiX Benchmark Working Group and the WLCG HEPscore deployment Task Torce.
Scheduling at large WLCG sites has to account for several peculiarities of the HEP usage profile: Prominently, the split into only 1-core and 8-core requests is known to lead to fragmentation. In addition, sites have to satisfy long-term and short-term fairshare, efficient job packing, internal flexibility and various other goals. Over the years, various strategies have been proposed in the...
