High performance parametric design optimization of RF devices
We present an integrated environment for large scale multi parameter design optimization of RF devices based on AFRL's Galaxy Simulation Builder productivity tool for distributed high performance computing, Sandia National Lab's DAKOTA optimization library, and a suite of highly efficient GPU based Electromagnetic codes developed at NRL in collaboration with Leidos, Inc. The environment allows for an end to end optimization cycle of an RF device to be set up, deployed, carried out, monitored and analyzed in a quick, user friendly, robust, and flexible fashion using a diverse variety of high end parallel computing resources.
