We aim to implement a Big Data/Extreme Computing (BDEC) capable system infrastructure as we head towards the era of Exascale computing - termed SAGE (Percipient StorAGe for Exascale Data Centric Computing). The SAGE system will be capable of storing and processing immense volumes of data at the Exascale regime, and provide the capability for Exascale class applications to use such a storage infrastructure.SAGE addresses the increasing overlaps between Big Data Analysis and HPC in an era of next-generation data centric computing that has developed due to the proliferation of massive data sources, such as large, dispersed scientific instruments and sensors, whose data needs to be processed, analysed and integrated into simulations to derive scientific and innovative insights.

The primary visual cortex (area V1) is an extensively studied part of the cerebral cortex with well-characterized connectivity, cellular and molecular architecture and functions (for recent reviews see Amunts and Zilles, Neuron 88:1086–1107, 2015; Casagrande and Xu, Parallel visual pathways: a comparative perspective. The visual neurosciences, MIT Press, Cambridge, pp 494–506, 2004). [...]

The prediction of tropical cyclone rapid intensification is one of the most pressing unsolved problems in hurricane forecasting. The signatures of gravity waves launched by strong convective updrafts are often clearly seen in airglow and carbon dioxide thermal emission spectra under favorable atmospheric conditions. [...]

New observations at South Georgia (an extremely intense source of gravity waves) are used to evaluate model simulations of gravity waves and wakes, paving the way for improved understanding of these important phenomena.Gravity waves (GWs) play an important role in many atmospheric processes. However, the observations-based understanding of GWs is limited, and representing them in numerical models is difficult. [...]
