100Gbps networking has finally arrived, and many research and educational in- stitutions have begun to deploy 100Gbps routers and services. ESnet and Internet2 worked together to make 100Gbps networks available to researchers at the Super- computing 2011 conference in Seattle Washington. In this paper, we describe two of the first applications to take advantage of this network. We demonstrate a visu- alization application that enables remotely located scientists to gain insights from large datasets. We also demonstrate climate data movement and analysis over the 100Gbps network. We describe a number of application design issues and host tuning strategies necessary for enabling applications to scale to 100Gbps rates.

Many scientific applications and experiments, such as high energy and nuclear physics, astrophysics, climate observation and modeling, combustion, nano-scale material sciences, and computational biology, generate extreme volumes of data with a large number of files. These data sources are distributed among national and international data repositories, and are shared by large numbers of geographically distributed scientists. A large portion of the data is frequently accessed, and a large volume of data is moved from one place to another for analysis and storage. A challenging issue in such efforts is the limited network capacity for moving large datasets. A tool that addresses this challenge is the Bulk Data Mover (BDM), a data transfer management tool used in the Earth System Grid (ESG) community. It has been managing massive dataset transfers efficiently in the environment where the network bandwidth is limited. Adaptive transfer adjustment was studied to enhance the BDM to handle significant end-to-end performance changes in the dynamic network environments as well as to control the data transfers for the desired transfer performance. We describe the results from our hands-on data transfer management experience in the climate research community. We study a practical transfer estimation model and state our initial results from the adaptive transfer adjustment methodology.

Many scientific applications need support from a communication infrastructure that provides predictable performance, which requires effective algorithms for bandwidth reservations. Network reservation sys- tems such as ESnet’s OSCARS, establish guaranteed bandwidth of secure virtual circuits for a certain bandwidth and length of time. However, users currently cannot inquire about bandwidth availability, nor have alternative suggestions when reservation requests fail. In general, the number of reservation options is exponential with the number of nodes n, and current reservation commitments. We present a novel approach for path finding in time-dependent networks taking advantage of user-provided parameters of total volume and time constraints, which produces options for earliest completion and shortest duration. The theoretical complexity is only O(n2r2) in the worst-case, where r is the number of reservations in the desired time interval. We have implemented our algorithm and developed efficient methodologies for incorporation into network reservation frameworks. Performance measurements confirm the theoretical predictions.

The dCache installation is a storage management system that acts as a disk cache for high-energy physics (HEP) data. Storagespace on dCache is limited relative to persistent storage devices, therefore, a heuristic is needed to determine what data should be kept in the cache. A good cache policy would keep frequently accessed data in the cache, but this requires knowledge of future dataset popularity. We present methods for forecasting the number of times a dataset stored on dCache will be accessed in the future. We present a deep neural network that can predict future dataset accesses accurately, reporting a final normalized loss of 4.6e-8. We present a set of algorithms that can forecast future dataset accesses given an access sequence. Included are two novel algorithms, Backup Predictor and Last N Successors, that outperform other file prediction algorithms. Findings suggest that it is possible to anticipate dataset popularity in advance.
