CME Highlights in 2013

A small group of computer scientists and software developers working at USC participate in SCEC’s Community Modeling Environment collaboration that performs distributed inter-disciplinary earthquake system science research using high performance computers.

One remarkable aspect of this group is the wide range of academic and computing organizing involved in this collaborative work. Over the last year, SCEC’s CME has involved research from many leading USC academic, governmental, and engineering organizations including U.C. San Diego, U.C. Los Angeles, U.C. Santa Barbara, Stanford, Caltech, Harvard, Carnegie Mellon, University of Wyoming, USGS Offices in Pasadena, Menlo Park, and Golden Colorado, and computer scientists from USC ISI, San Diego Supercomputer Center, Texas Advance Computing Center, National Center for Supercomputing Applications, Argonne Leadership Computing Facility, and Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility.

In 2013, SCEC’s CME computational research included ground motion simulations using USC HPCC, high frequency deterministic earthquake simulations using Titan at Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility, earthquake rupture forecast model development using TACC Stampede, and physics-based probabilistic seismic hazard models on NCSA Blue Waters.

SCEC’s CME group also develops and releases open-source scientific software for use by researchers. Currently available software includes, SCEC Broadband Platform for ground motion simulations, SCEC’s AWP-ODC software for parallel wave propagation software, SCEC’s Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability earthquake forecast testing framework, and SCEC’s Unified Community Velocity Model software for building and using 3D earth structural models.
