  1. Contract Year 1 ReviewIMT Tilt Thompkins MOS - NCSA 15 May 2002

  2. Program Development Approach • Major Issues Addressed As NCSA Core Lead • Classified contract • Updating UI financial system after late start date • Performance and Hiring as impacted by IL State budget crisis Contract Year 1 Review

  3. Program Development Approach • Major Issues Addressed As FAPOC • Engaging T&E Community • Who, where, what • Level of HPC expertise • On-site performance and security • Program development barriers • T&E Community has limited HPC expertise • Sense that HPC/PET is trying to “tell them how to do their job” • In general, 50% of the funding for a T&E center is yearly customer funds, and as a result, their time horizon is short (3 to 6 months) • Projects are of limited interest given the relatively long development time Contract Year 1 Review

  4. Strategic Goals for IMT • Top priorities: • Application of HPC software tools and techniques with live tests and hardware-in-the-loop simulations for test and evaluation. • Tools for collecting, organizing, and combining diverse information sets to optimally guide T&E decision making. • Concentrate on: • High-fidelity component and process models • Real-time model execution • Integration of information from disparate sources • Test data repositories • Optimal Test Strategy Planning • Building IMT Communities of practice • Training in new software tools & methodologies (Core) Contract Year 1 Review

  5. FY03 PROJECT PLANNING: IMT FY02 FY03 FY04 FY05 FY06 • High-fidelity component and process models • Real-time models • Information Integration • Test data repositories • Optimal test planning • Building IMT communities of practice OPT. T&E DECISION MAKING IMT 002 CROSS-FA PROGRAMS CORE R-T INTEROPERABILITY MODEL DATA REDUCTION OPT. T&E DECISION MAKING CORE TRANINING STATISTICS DATA REPOSITORIES DATA REPOSITORIES IMT 002 OPT.
