From laptop to world class HPC
Let me introduce myself
Finished my Master at the USTH (Vietnam)
Engineer on projects ANR ESCAPE & COMOKIT
Working on GAMA for 2 years
Mostly involved in Big Data, model exploration and High Performance Computing (HPC) usage
Should start a thesis next year
Exploring by Simulation Cities Awareness on Population Evacuation
Hazard: It never sticks to the plan
Environment: Roads and buildings turn into enemies
Human behavior: People do everything to make the plan fail
Evacuation plan: Organization(s) spend resources to help people
Answer that kinds of questions
Let's do some maths :
For a simulation with 3 parameters with 10 values each 10^3 = 1.000 simulations * repetitions
The full self-hosted solution
Free and open-source platform
Offers tools to run, explore, diagnose and optimize model
Distributed computing environments
Works with GAMA
OpenMole provide functions to explore diversity in input or output
Explaination of the PSE
What the Pattern Space Exploration is for ?
How the Pattern Space Exploration works ?
COMOKIT use-case
Context: OpenMole need a specific virtualizator (Singularity) to run GAMA
Problem: That virtualizator is not install on the HPC
--
Solution: Use a custom setup to optimize parallelization run with GAMA's headless tools
HCP pipeline
Two main points in it
Co-modeling
Continue thesis subject from Dr. Huynh Quang Nghi*
Parallelization of simulation processing
Working on parallel multi-scale calculation, which may be appliable on HPC environments
Feel free to ask any questions you might have
COMOKIT -> 1000rep
With these 3 param -> 1 Billion simulations
The PSE method is designed to cover the output space
