| Dear NERSC Account Managers,
With the new NIM release you can now see the average review score
your project received from this year's ERCAP review process.
DOE Base Program requests were reviewed by DOE's COmputational
Review Panel (CORP). The CORP provides computational ratings to
the DOE Program Managers on the computational approach, optimization,
scalability, and communications characteristics of your code. They
rated how well you answered the code description questions on the
ERCAP Request Form.
SciDAC, Startup and small HPSS-only requests were not rated.
Each request that was rated was reviewed and scored by four reviewers:
1. Computational Science reviewers -- they review requests in
their science discipline.
2. Computer Science reviewers -- they review requests across
all science disciplines, paying attention to the Computer Science
aspects of the projects.
3. Applied Mathematics reviewers -- they review requests across
all science disciplines, paying attention to the algorithmic
aspects of the projects.
4. NERSC staff reviewers
Each reviewer rated 3 areas of your project with a score of:
5 for excellent
4 for very good
3 for good
2 for fair
1 for poor
The areas rated were:
1. Software and Algorithms: this area was given 50% of the weight
for the overall score for that reviewer.
2. Code Performance: this area was given 30% of the weight for the
overall score.
3. Communications, Storage and I/O: this area was given 20% of the
weight for the overall score.
The weighted average of these three scores produced an overall
score for each reviewer.
The average review score you see in NIM is the average of all the
reviewers' overall scores.
