The National Nuclear Security Administration’s Advanced Simulation and Computing program releases strategy for deploying AI methods in high-security and high-consequence environments.
Foreword
For nearly three decades, the Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) program has been a pioneer in using high-performance computing for modeling and simulation, crucial for addressing challenges following the 1992 ban on underground nuclear testing. The program has made balanced investments in diverse areas like hardware, software, algorithms, and physics research. This strategy emphasizes the revolutionary potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate solutions for the nation's nuclear deterrent mission. It outlines the ASC program's plan to deploy AI methods within the high-security and high-consequence environment of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA). The goal is to blend advanced modeling and simulation capabilities with new AI tools to ensure ASC remains at the forefront of scientific delivery for the U.S. Stockpile Stewardship Program.
