14. DoD Supercomputing Resource Center (DSRC) Summer 2012 Full Refresh Both UNCLAS and CLAS mainframes will be replaced UNCLAS daVinci (IBM P6  U1) UNCLAS Einstein (Cray MX5  U2) and CLAS PASCAL (IBM P5  C1) Selection to be announced APR 12. Anticipate 3 of the same - 2 UNCLAS (U1 & U2) and 1 CLAS (C1) Expected to expand capability 3X from ~34 to ~110 teraflops Will not know vendor, system, capabilities, etc., until announcement Small test development system (TDS) to be available APR 12 (128-256 cores) U1, U2, C1 delivery and testing in JUN 12 C1 will be first May be issues / delays with installation (water cooled– is current cooling adequate?) First user access ~1 JUL 12 Acceptance by ~1 AUG 12 Pascal (C) gone 30 SEP 12 (contract expires) Could be extended if schedule continues to slip and we have issues daVinci and Einstein (U) gone 31 DEC 12.

15. NAVO Model Ops DSRC Transitions Timetable (Always in Flux) MID-APR - 30 JUN (2.5 months) - system definition / scope / education / testing LATE-APR - 01 JUL (2 months) - test cases on TDS Likely lots of competition Small starter jobs: R-NCOM (64 cpus), SWAN (8 cpus), COAMPS (64 cpus), etc. Modeler involvement required 01 JUL - 01 OCT (3 months) - move CLAS models (Pascal) to C1 OCEAN_QC / NCODA GNCOM & HYCOM ??? ~10 RNCOM, & ~12 CNCOMs ~150 WAMS & WW3 (???, but doubtful) ~150 SWANS What else (PCTIDES,...) MID AUG – END DEC (4.5 months) - move UNCLAS models (daVinci / Einstein) to U1 / U2 First priority is CLAS move, start UNCLAS a month later Probably move all to U1 with U2 as mirror site A few less domains than above Possible exception-- not GNCOM and only move HYCOM 1/12 Approved for public release. Distribution is unlimited.

16. HYCOM Timetable (preliminary) 1 MAY - OPTEST report completed, submitted, and approved by end of APR. End MAY - Target UNCLAS HYCOM on Einstein producing pre-operational output OSMEs evaluate throughout month. MAY - 1 OCT - UNCLAS HYCOM and UNCLAS GNCOM to run in parallel on Einstein/daVinci through the summer. CLAS GNCOM continues as operational model. OPTEST evaluations continue (F Bub – AutoMetrics-based) JUL – AUG - CLAS GNCOM transition to the new DSRC system Pascal  C1, continues as operational model through summer/fall Internal Model comparisons AUG – SEP- CLAS HYCOM will be installed on C1 during the summer DSRC transition CLAS HYCOM will replace CLAS GNCOM by 30 SEP (If seamless transition) Pascal scheduled for decommissioning). OCT - NOV - UNCLAS HYCOM will be installed on new system U1 UNCLAS HYCOM will replace GNCOM by DEC. Approved for public release. Distribution is unlimited.
