Partnerships

The key components of the SciDAC program are the SciDAC institutes and SciDAC partnerships. While the Institutes form the foundation for efforts by applied mathematicians and computer scientists to systematically address technical challenges that are inherent to new architectures and common across a wide range of science topics, the partnerships enable scientists to conduct complex scientific and engineering computations at a level of fidelity needed to simulate real-world conditions in targeted science projects.

Currently, more than 30 SciDAC partnership projects are co-funded by Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) with the Program Offices in the Office of Science (SC), Basic Energy Sciences (BES), [Biological and Environmental Research (BER)(https://www.energy.gov/science/ber/biological-and-environmental-research), High-Energy Physics (HEP), and Nuclear Physics (NP), the Office of Electricity (OE), and the Office of Nuclear Energy (NE).

These partnerships * Leverage leadership class computing resources to advance scientific frontiers in an area of strategic importance to the partnering DOE programs. * Effectively integrate the intellectual resources in applied mathematics and computer science, expertise in algorithms and methods, and scientific software tools including AI capabilities at one, or more, SciDAC institutes.
