For more than a decade, the HPCMP has supported a workforce that routinely uses HPC resources to solve many of the Department's most challenging scientific and engineering problems. This, in turn, helps the United States ensure military advantage and warfighting superiority on the 21st century battlefield. The Program enables scientists and engineers to further the Department's objectives through research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) activities that support science and technology (S&T), and test and evaluation (T&E). These efforts focus on the most complex, and highest priority defense challenges. This annual report highlights a small portion of the work performed to support the Department. The HPCMP achieves the Program's mission and vision by focusing on five specific goals. Each activity within the program supports one or more of these goals, with progress tracked and successes delineated. These five goals are: 1) acquire, deploy, operate, and maintain best-value supercomputers; 2) acquire, develop, deploy, and support software applications and computational work environments that enable critical DoD research, development, and test challenges to be analyzed and solved; 3) acquire, deploy, operate and maintain a communications network that enables effective access to supercomputers and to distributed S&T/T&E computing environments; 4) promote collaborative relationships among the DoD computational science community, the national computational science community, and minority serving institutions; and 5) continuously educate the research, development, test, and evaluation workforce with the knowledge needed to employ computational modeling effectively and efficiently.
