Grant Description

The Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) Program of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), hereby announces its interest in receiving Cooperative Agreement applications from interdisciplinary teams for the development and application of high performance scientific simulation codes under the SC Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program. The FES SciDAC portfolio focuses on the creation of high physics fidelity simulation codes that can advance scientific discovery in fusion plasma science and contribute to the FES goal of developing a validated predictive capability for magnetically confined plasmas by fully exploiting the emerging capabilities of petascale and beyond computing resources and associated progress in software and algorithm development.
