Matt has brought up some issues with compiling Ascent (more specifically, VTK-h) with newer versions of CMake. It is not totally clear what versions of CMake the issue comes up, but it has been noted that the dashboards do not use the latest versions. In particular, the highest version of CMake used for a CUDA build is 3.16. We need to check for newer versions of CMake.

ECP Updates

  • Review [ECP Project Readiness](https://confluence.exascaleproject.org/display/1ST/ECP+ST+Product+Readiness)
  • Unfortunately, our PCR's have not gotten accepted
    • We need to reformulate them
    • Hope to submit in time for the May 12 deadline
  • Let's think about possible highlights
    • App engagement
    • Success with porting (e.g. run on Aurora)
    • Engagement with other ST teams (e.g. using Kokkos)
    • WDM
      • Submitted highlight on integration with EFFIS
      • Expect to submit another highlight when used in a big run
    • Possible highlight slide on particle advection with WarpX (Matt).

Porting Activities

Version 1.6.0-rc1 is released. What do we need to do before the official release? Update Ascent? Update VTK? Others?

A new machine will be deploying a new machine: Polaris. Intended to help science teams be ready for exascale machines.

Wiki will go away at some point (and will definitely move soon). We should avoid using it for anything other than these notes.

Matt working on WarpX highlight.

Rename master branch?

  • Need to wait for some changes to git before the transition (for some automated features of repo).
  • Can we for a time have a master that mirrors the new default?
    • Don't know, but seems possible. Will have to look into that.
