Call for DoD HPCMP Acquisition Engineering Project Requests

Introduction

 

Purpose: The Department of Defense (DoD) High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) established the DoD HPCMP Acquisition Engineering (AE) Program to better support the unique workflows for the acquisition engineering, mission engineering, and test and evaluation (T&E) communities.  The AE Program provides access to HPCMP compute resources, network access, and advanced software tools for modeling and simulation of DoD air, land, and sea-based weapon systems throughout all lifecycle phases, maximizing return on investment.

For inquiries regarding software tools, network, or subject matter expert (SME) support for AE efforts, please contact Jason Klepper at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..  To request compute resources for AE efforts, complete the submission process using the instructions and template below.

AE Compute Resource Request Submission: Requests for AE compute are accepted on a continuous basis and must be submitted to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..  All request forms must be unclassified. If a classified or sensitive submission is required, please include a Point of Contact (POC) Name, POC Email, and any other relevant information in the Special Consideration section. The POC will be contacted for further guidance.

Call for FY 2025 DoD Frontier Project Proposals

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.

HPCMP AI and ML Workshop

Doolittle Institute - Niceville, Florida
24-27 JUNE 2024

The Who

This workshop is for all government and government contracted High Performance 
Computing Al and ML users working in the research, development, testing, and evaluation 
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

The Registration form can be found here.

Here is the flyer for the workshop.
