The EJFAT prototype has demonstrated proof of concept for connecting scientific instruments with remote high-performance computing for rapid data processing.

This was only a test — but not just any test. “This was a major breakthrough for the transmission and processing of scientific data,” said Graham Heyes, Technical Director of the High Performance Data Facility (HPDF). “Capturing this data and processing it in real time is challenging enough; doing it when the data source and destination are separated by distances on continental scales is very difficult. This proof-of-concept test shows that it can be done and will be a game changer.”

The image illustrates how EScAIP optimizes reaction paths involving complex structures with many atoms, highlighting the speed and low memory usage critical to its efficiency. This method is under development by Samuel Blau and colleagues using data from the Open Catalyst Project.

Multicolored lines trace particle tracks, created by quarks and gluons from the collision. GPTune-enhanced collisions produce more particles, offering scientists a deeper look into subatomic behavior. The image's radiant lines form a bullseye pattern against a black background, highlighting the intricate paths of the particles.
