Jim Ang PhD

Jim is the Chief Scientist for Computing in the Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate at PNNL. His focus is leadership and R&D opportunities at the intersection of advanced computing with microelectronics. For DOE/SC, Jim is the PI and co-PI for two microelectronics science research center projects and serves as the PNNL representative on the Critical and Enabling Technology microelectronics coordination committee. Jim also supports the DOC CHIPS R&D Program as a member of their Industry Advisory Committee R&D Gaps working group. He also serves as a senior technical advisor to the DOD Laboratory for Physical Sciences, Advanced Computing Systems research program. Previously, Jim served as the ASCR Sector lead for PNNL’s portfolio of over 20 R&D projects in applied mathematics, computer science, advanced architectures, and computational modeling and simulation. He also led the Data-Model Convergence Initiative, a LDRD investment to develop computer science support for converged scientific and data analytic computing.

 

Presentation Title:

Democratizing Co-Design (DeCoDe) for the Post-Exascale Era

Presentation Abstract:

DeCoDe is a new DOE/SC MSRC project that lowers the cost of hardware R&D required to design, develop and fabricate prototype hardware for quantitative test and evaluation with real scientific discovery applications. This project supports DOE goals for energy- efficient computing with new heterogeneous computing paradigms and edge computing integrated with instrumentation and sensors. DeCoDe is part of the DOE contribution to the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. It is a concrete example of inter-agency alignment where DOE will develop designs and supporting software that will target significant microelectronics hardware prototyping and packaging capabilities from the U.S. DOC.
