“Advances in communications and the
democratization of other technologies have also
generated an ability to create and share vast and
exponentially growing amounts of information farther
and faster than ever before. This abundance of data
provides significant opportunities for the IC, including
new avenues for collection and the potential for
greater insight, but it also challenges the IC’s ability to
collect, process, evaluate, and analyze such enormous
volumes of data quickly enough to provide relevant
and useful insight to its customers.”
à “Develop and maintain capabilities to acquire and
evaluate data to obtain a deep understanding of the
global political, diplomatic, military, economic,
security, and informational environment. “

Data Science:
Discovery and Innovation
The National Strategic Computing
Initiative (NSCI) The NSCI was
launched by Executive Order (EO)
13702 in July 2015 to advance U.S.
leadership in high performance
computing (HPC).
McKinsey predicts that data-driven technologies will
bring an additional $300 billion of value to the U.S.
health care sector alone, and by 2020, 1.5 million more
“data-savvy managers” will be needed to capitalize on
the potential of data, “big” and otherwise.

competition, and productivity. McKinsey Global Institute. Retrieved from

insights/big-data-the-next-frontier-for-innovation
The ability to manipulate data and understand Data Science
is becoming increasingly critical to current and future
discovery and innovation.

National Strategic Computing
Initiative (NSCI) Update
14 Nov 2019
• Computing hardware, with a
focus on the 10-year horizon
and beyond;
• Software infrastructure that
will enable effective and
sustainable use of new
computing;
• Overall infrastructure, from
data usage and management to
cybersecurity, foundries, and
prototypes;
• And the development of new
real-world applications,
systems, and opportunities for
future computing.
In recognition of the fast-changing computing
landscape, the updated plan places new emphasis on
the following areas as compared to the 2016 plan:

Advantages of Graph Analytics
• Much smaller than raw data. Can fit in memory of
large computer
• Fast response to queries
• Pre-join of database
• Combine data from different sources and of
different types
• Some common intelligence and law enforcement
queries are naturally posed on graphs
• Particularly for the terrorist threat

Graph Data Science: Real-world challenges
All involve exascale streaming graphs:
• Health care à disease spread, detection and prevention of
epidemics/pandemics (e.g. SARS, Avian flu, H1N1 “swine” flu)
• Massive social networks à understanding communities, intentions,
population dynamics, pandemic spread, transportation and evacuation
• Intelligence à business analytics, anomaly detection, security, knowledge
discovery from massive data sets
• Systems Biology à understanding complex life systems, drug design,
microbial research, unravel the mysteries of the HIV virus; understand life,
disease,
• Electric Power Grid à communication, transportation, energy, water, food
supply
• Modeling and Simulation à Perform full-scale economic-social-political
simulations
REQUIRES PREDICTING / INFLUENCE CHANGE IN REAL-TIME AT SCALE

Graphs are pervasive in large-scale data analysis
• Sources of massive data: peta- and exa-scale simulations, experimental
devices, the Internet, scientific applications.
• New challenges for analysis: data sizes, heterogeneity, uncertainty, data
quality.
Astrophysics
Problem: Outlier detection.
Challenges: massive datasets,
temporal variations.
Graph problems: clustering,
matching.
Bioinformatics
Problem: Identifying drug target
proteins.
Challenges: Data heterogeneity,

Massive Data Analytics: Infrastructure
• The U.S. high-voltage transmission
grid has >150,000 miles of line.
• Real-time detection of changes and
anomalies in the grid is a large-scale
problem.
• May mitigate impact of widespread
blackouts due to equipment failure or
intentional damage.

Centrality in Massive Social Network Analysis
• Centrality metrics: Quantitative measures to capture the
importance of person in a social network
• Betweenness is a global index related to shortest paths that
traverse through the person
• Can be used for community detection as well
• Identifying central nodes in large complex networks is the
key metric in several applications:
• Biological networks, protein-protein interactions
• Sexual networks and AIDS
• Identifying key actors in terrorist networks
• Organizational behavior
• Supply chain management
• Transportation networks
