SUMMARY:High Performance Computing (HPC) Data Center Planning and TCO: A C
 ase Study and Roadmap
DESCRIPTION:Anna Maria Bailey (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Ene
 rgy Efficient HPC Working Group); Michael Thomas (Syska Hennessy Group); a
 nd David Lambiaso (Environmental Systems Design (ESD))\n\nLeveraging the “
 Data Center Planning and Design for HPC Folks” Tutorials presented at both
  SC16 and SC17, this track not only provides best practices and lessons le
 arned gleaned from multiple HPC data center infrastructure capacity planni
 ng, total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis and business case justification
  initiatives over the last 15 years but, significantly, provides a deeper-
 dive case study and roadmap around Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’
 s (LLNL) methodology to accommodate future HPC systems. The presenters und
 erstand that the HPC data center mechanical, electrical, and structural in
 frastructure can be a significant enabler or roadblock to the timely deplo
 yment and optimized performance of HPC systems. We are encouraged to see m
 ore TCO/business case dialogue at SC17 and in the HPC community than in ye
 ars past and will share firsthand experience about how participants can de
 velop/enhance their organization’s HPC facility infrastructure to match th
 eir deployment methodology. Topics covered include mission statement and b
 usiness case development, key stakeholder engagement, existing conditions 
 survey, future-state requirements development, gap analysis, alternative o
 ptions analysis, budgeting, reporting, and approvals. This tutorial will i
 mprove both your technical knowledge and financial confidence to navigate 
 this process and drive successful outcomes.\n\nTag: HPC Center Planning an
