Introduction
Purpose: The Department of Defense (DoD) High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) established DoD Frontier Projects to enable research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E), and acquisition engineering outcomes that would not be achievable using typically available HPCMP resources.
Eligibility: Please carefully review the requirements for proposals to ensure that all requirements are met in any submitted proposal. Frontier Projects will continue to pursue outcomes aligned with DoD mission priorities and be supported by multi-year commitments of exceptional amounts of high-performance computing (HPC) computational resources.

areas to develop Al and/or ML solutions using HPC services and capabilities provided by
the HPC Centers within the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program
The What
The Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program (DoD
HPCMP) is providing the opportunity for HPC users working in the Research, Development,
Testing, and Evaluation (RDT&E) HPC Al and ML area to join our Second Annual Al and ML
Solutions Workshop in order to network with other HPC Al and ML researchers and developers, learn what's happening within the HPCMP surrounding HPC Al and ML, and provide
feedback on utilized HPC services and capabilities to help build the future HPC Al and ML
Ecosystem
The Why
HPC AI and ML researchers and developers will get the opportunity to
• Participate in on-site training,
• Receive an out-brief of last year’s processed feedback and subsequent actions,
• Hear from HPCMP Leadership with focus on ongoing and future AI and ML efforts,
• Network and collaborate with other HPC AI and ML researchers and developers,
• Learn how HPC AI and ML users are solving real-world problems,
• Share feedback on utilized HPC AI and ML services and capabilities,
• And much more
A collection of policy, guidance and best practices documents for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) and Internet of Things (IoT) (which have also been called Smart Objects, Things, or Devices).
Policy, guidance and best practices documents specific to cloud computing appear in the Cloud Computing article in the IPv6 Infrastructure section. Best practices documents describing IPv6 and IoT security appear in the IPv6 and IoT Security Best Practices article in the Security section. Best practices documents describing smart cities appear in the Additional Information about IoT and Smart Cities article of the IPv6 and IoT: Frequently Asked Questions section.
(Note: A policy document describes a set of specific actions that must be taken or goals that must be achieved. A guidance document describes a set of non-mandatory actions that could be taken or practices that could be used to achieve recommended goals. A best practices document describes actions or practices that are known to produce good outcomes when followed.)
