TITLE:
"Enacting Distributed HPC Workflows: Opportunities and Challenges"

ABSTRACT:
The Dept of Energy (DOE) complex comprises of many science facilities 
that could be classified as data producing (eg. the Advanced Photon 
Source at Argonne National Laboratory) and consuming (eg. the Leadership 
Class Computing Facilities at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory) 
facilities.

Modern science campaigns often require extensive usage of more than one 
such facilities which may be located remote from each other and 
administered separately. This presents opportunities for the scientific 
computational workflows to aid in the process. At the same time, there 
are equally daunting challenges faced to successfully and smoothly 
accomplish these workflows.

This talk will dive into these opportunities and challenges and dive 
into proposed solutions and path forward.

Bio: Dr. Ketan Maheshwari is a Senior Linux Systems Engineer within the 
NCCS Division at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He has over 15 years 
of experience working with HPC systems with over 10 years with the 
leadership class systems at ALCF and OLCF. He is interested in science 
applications porting to large scale computing infrastructures and has a 
hands-on expertise in workflows, parallelization and HPC. He has given 
several talks on technical topics at local as well as international 
venues, most notably on GNU Parallel (eScience'23, CUG'24, PEARC'24, 
SC'24), Linux Terminal Tools (USENIX/LISA'19, LOPSA'18) and Swift 
Workflows (CCGrid'13). Ketan received his PhD in the area of Scientific 
Workflows from University of Nice and a Masters in Grid Computing from 
University of Amsterdam.

Sponsored by the RAISE at UCR Institute, the AI Seminar Series presents 
speakers working on cutting edge Foundational AI or apply AI in their 
research. The goal of these seminars is to inform the UCR community 
about current trends in AI research and promote collaborations between 
faculty in this emerging field.
These seminars are open to interested faculty and graduate students. 
Please forward this email to other colleagues or graduate students in 
your lab that may be interested. After the seminar a discussion will 
follow for questions, open problems, ideas for possible collaborations 
etc.
