The Advanced Computing, Mathematics, and Data (ACMD) Division focuses on basic and applied computing research encompassing data and computational engineering, data science, machine intelligence, high-performance computing, and applied mathematics to support R&D efforts spanning across all Pacific Northwest National Laboratory mission areas.
Our scientists and engineers design next-generation algorithms to analyze, model, and visualize complex systems; develop new artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods and tools; apply co-design principles to optimize the performance and energy efficiency of future heterogeneous and reconfigurable computing systems; develop, deploy, and operate advanced software and data architectures; apply mathematical modeling and simulation to discover new chemicals and materials; and contribute to advance autonomic control for cyber-enabled infrastructures.
An AI agent that can auto-tune an amplifier could speed up quantum computing development and dark matter discovery. Researchers at PNNL are working to find out with a Genesis Mission–funded project.
PNNL convenes leaders from the Department of Energy, national laboratories, computing industry and academia for a two-day workshop to advance quantum computing for computational chemistry.
A research team from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory used machine reasoning to schedule scientific workflows while guaranteeing quality of service (QoS).
PNNL researchers highlighted advances in AI for scientific discovery at the AI+ Expo, showcasing generative AI, autonomous research workflows, and scalable AI systems supporting energy, security, and national competitiveness.
Now, anyone can easily explore and access data from a nationwide map of data centers, the infrastructure that powers them, and projections of future data center locations.
The Genesis Mission will mobilize the Department of Energy’s 17 National Laboratories, industry, and academia to build an integrated discovery platform.
