The initial target for ATSE is to accelerate the maturity of the Arm ecosystem for supporting ASC computing and the high-performance computing community more broadly. The goal is to build an integrated optimized software stack that includes:
- Application development environment and libraries
- Compilers, math libraries, tools, MPI, OpenMP
- Low-level system software
- Optimized Linux, network stack, file systems, containers, virtual machines
- Job scheduling and management
- workload manager, application launcher, user tools
- System administration and management
- booting, monitoring, image management
ATSE will leverage existing efforts such as the Tri-lab Operating System Stack (TOSS) and capabilities being developed under the Software Technology focus area of the DOE Exascale Computing Project.
