Description: The Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) program of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), hereby invites exploratory basic research proposals with the potential to deliver significantly advanced or improved science capabilities in light of emerging and disruptive technology changes. Desired outcomes include advances that will make massively parallel, heterogeneous computer architectures more efficient and practical to use in carrying out scientific research activities. A complementary ASCR objective is to build up the computational research infrastructure for enabling data-intensive science advances. A companion Program Announcement open to DOE National Laboratories (LAB 14-1003) will be posted on the SC Grants and Contracts web site at: http://www.science.doe.gov/grants The full text of the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is located on FedConnect. Instructions for completing the Grant Application Package are contained in the full text of the FOA which can be obtained at: https://www.fedconnect.net/FedConnect/?doc=DE-FOA-0001003&amp;agency=DOE.
