TL;DR: The Integrated Plasma Simulator (IPS) as discussed by the authors provides a framework within which some of the most advanced, massively parallel fusion modeling codes can be interoperated to provide a detailed picture of the multi-physics processes involved in fusion experiments.
Abstract: The Integrated Plasma Simulator (IPS) provides a framework within which some of the most advanced, massively-parallel fusion modeling codes can be interoperated to provide a detailed picture of the multi-physics processes involved in fusion experiments. The presentation will cover four topics: 1) recent improvements to the IPS, 2) application of the IPS for very high resolution simulations of ITER scenarios, 3) studies of resistive and ideal MHD stability in tokamk discharges using IPS facilities, and 4) the application of RF power in the electron cyclotron range of frequencies to control slowly growing MHD modes in tokamaks and initial evaluations of optimized location for RF power deposition.

TL;DR: Results show this approach to remote job execution is successful, but with more testing and problem solving, the authors expect remote job executions to become more reliable.
Abstract: Remote job execution gives neutron science facilities access to high performance computing such as the TeraGrid. A scientific community can use community software with a community certificate and account through a common interface of a portal. Results show this approach is successful, but with more testing and problem solving, we expect remote job executions to become more reliable.
