Progress being made on getting VTK-m working with ParaView on Aurora. There were some linking issues with SYCL. Abhi has a branch that allows the VTK build to work with SYCL. Silvio now needs to get a special ParaView build that uses this branch of VTK. https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/-/merge_requests/10592

We should ask AMD for some hardware that Kitware can install in their testing cluster. Ask if they have consumer-level hardware that supports ROCm. This would be easier for Kitware to buy and regardless easier to set up as it would not require extra server mounting hardware.

There are issues with the install of ParaView on Frontier. You cannot just load it directly. You need to first load multiple dependent modules. There is a script to do that correctly.

The Todd Gamblin through the software stewardship work is creating a "High Performance Software Foundation" umbrella organization under the Linux Foundation for HPC code. Ken and Berk have be pursuing this. There have been some issues that popped up over who has authority to start this and similarities of trademark to VTK.

We have a read-the-docs site for VTK-m documentation up and running. Right now the documentation is minimal, but more is forthcoming.

The latest RC for the release is out. We are waiting for Cyrus to confirm that it works well for Ascent.

Jeff's VTK-m GUI is now available open-source on GitHub: https://GitHub.com/NVIDIA/VTK-m-graph

Intel is doing a live demo on Sunspot at SC. It would be interesting if VTK-m was part of that. Currently ParaView is running on Sunspot. We could potentially run VTK-m under ParaView if that could be made working. There are some current linking issues with VTK-m/VTK, but Abhi thinks he can get it working within the next month. Another option would be to use Jeff's VTK-m connector demonstration to show something running and rendering with ANARI.

No meetings next two weeks.

We should ask AMD for some hardware that Kitware can install in their testing cluster. Ask if they have consumer-level hardware that supports ROCm. This would be easier for Kitware to buy and regardless easier to set up as it would not require extra server mounting hardware.
