The national advanced computing ecosystem is an essential strategic asset for our Nation's economy and security, for scientific and engineering discovery and innovation, and for implementing solutions to current and future challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and development of sustainable energy. The 2020 NSTC report, Pioneering the Future Advanced Computing Ecosystem: A Strategic Plan, laid out a vision for a Future Advanced Computing Ecosystem (FACE) and the objectives and initial planning necessary to achieve the vision. The FACE strategic plan, like the 2019 National Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI) Strategic Plan before it, focused on strategic objectives and outlined potential execution directions, leaving details to subsequent implementation plans such as outlined in this document. This Implementation Roadmap provides details of the research and development (R&D) activities that Federal agencies are currently planning to implement in fiscal year 2022 and beyond to meet the four objectives and the various subobjectives of the FACE Strategic Plan.

The National Strategic Computing Initiative Update builds on the 2016 Strategic Computing Plan to enable focused and collaborative research, development, and deployment of future computing technologies to benefit the Nation. Realizing the successes of the National Strategic Computing Initiative to date, this update examines steps beyond those already implemented for realizing a computing ecosystem that combines heterogeneous computing systems (from extreme-scale to edge-centered systems and beyond) with the networking, hardware, software, data, and expertise required to support national security and defense as well as U.S. scientific, engineering, and economic leadership.

This progress report summarizes investments and activities under each of the FACE strategic objectives and the sub-objectives, as listed in the 2020 Pioneering the Future Advanced Computing Ecosystem: A Strategic Plan. The report also highlights outcomes of selected investments and activities from across the federal agencies.

Information technology IT computers, wired and wireless digital networks, electronic data and information, IT devices and systems, and software applications?today provides indispensable infrastructure for activities across all facets of society. Throughout the IT revolution, the United States has led the world in the invention and applications of these technologies. Ongoing research and development R and D to provide advanced IT capabilities for Federal missions has fueled the creation of new ideas, and innovations addressing key national priorities, including national security, national defense, economic prosperity, scientific discovery, energy and environment, health, individual privacy, and quality of life...

Since the World War II era, when scientists, mathematicians, and engineers began using revolutionary electronic machinery that could rapidly perform complex calculations in support of the war effort, pioneering computing capabilities have been a principal foundation of the nation`s technological and economic strength. Today, solving many of our most important scientific and engineering problems requires high-end computers...

The 2010 Report of the President`s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology PCAST, entitled ?Designing a Digital Future: Federally Funded Research and Development in Networking and Information Technology,? documents the transformation of our society driven by advances in networking and information technology, catalyzed by our nation`s past investments in research. Our world today relies to an astonishing degree on systems, tools, and services that belong to a vast and still growing domain known as Networking and Information Technology NIT...

The Future Computing (FC) Community of Interest (CoI) meeting on August 5–6, 2019, explored the evolving computing landscape to inform agencies about potential opportunities as well as gaps in the Nation's future computing objectives. The meeting focused on where computing will be in the next decade and beyond while also looking at emerging and future applications. It considered the need for new software concepts and approaches to effectively capitalize on new hardware architectures and paradigms. The long period of sustained growth in computing power over the last five decades, characterized by Moore's Law and Dennard Scaling, is expected to end over the next decade. The continued improvement in computing performance will now require moving to new modalities and new means of cooperation and partnership for the benefit of the Nation. The FC-CoI meeting was held at the offices of the Federal Networking and Information Technology Research and Development Program in Washington, D.C. The meeting brought together key members of industry, academia, and the Federal Government over a two-day period to discuss the future of computing. The meeting had been advertised in the Federal Register to encourage broad participation from the advanced computing community. More detail about the meeting is available at https://www.nitrd.gov/nitrdgroups/index.php?title=FC-COI-2019.

Powerful personal computers, high-bandwidth and wireless networking technologies, and the widespread use of the Internet have transformed stand-alone computing systems and predominantly closed networks into the virtually seamless fabric of today`s information technology IT infrastructure. This infrastructure provides for the processing, transmission, and storage of vast amounts of vital information used in virtually every facet of society, and it enables Federal agencies to routinely interact with each other as well as with industry, private citizens, state and local governments, and the governments of other nations...

In the four decades since Federal research first enabled computers to send and receive data over networks, U.S. government research and development R and D in advanced networking has fueled a technological, economic, and social transformation. Today, networking is woven into the fabric of our society, a fundamental infrastructure for government operations, national defense and homeland security, commerce, communication, research, education, and leisure-time activities...
