    Container orchestration on HPC systems through Kubernetes
    (2021) Zhou, Naweiluo; Georgiou, Yiannis; Pospieszny, Marcin; Zhong, Li; Zhou, Huan; Niethammer, Christoph; Pejak, Branislav; Marko, Oskar; Hoppe, Dennis
    Containerisation demonstrates its efficiency in application deployment in Cloud Computing. Containers can encapsulate complex programs with their dependencies in isolated environments making applications more portable, hence are being adopted in High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters. Singularity, initially designed for HPC systems, has become their de facto standard container runtime. Nevertheless, conventional HPC workload managers lack micro-service support and deeply-integrated container management, as opposed to container orchestrators. We introduce a Torque-Operator which serves as a bridge between HPC workload manager (TORQUE) and container orchestrator (Kubernetes). We propose a hybrid architecture that integrates HPC and Cloud clusters seamlessly with little interference to HPC systems where container orchestration is performed on two levels.

    Hybrid deep learning approaches on HPC and quantum computing for data analysis
    (Stuttgart : Höchstleistungsrechenzentrum, Universität Stuttgart, 2024) Zhong, Li; Resch, Michael (Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dr. h.c. Dr. h.c. Prof. E.h.)
    This thesis explores the transformative role of machine learning, especially deep learning (DL), in engineering simulations, using material science as a key application area. By transitioning from human-driven to computer-analyzed simulations, DL can accelerate simulation workflows and enhance data insights. However, the computational and storage demands of DL present challenges that quantum computing might address. This research investigates how hybrid workflows, combining DL with quantum neural networks (QNNs), can improve tasks such as image classification and partial differential equation (PDE) solving.
