The progress so far: An update on the Reactor Pilot Program
It has been about three months since the Department of Energy named 10 companies for its new Reactor Pilot Program, which maps out how the DOE would meet the goal announced by executive order in May of having three reactors achieve criticality by July 4, 2026.

The physical data of the Large Helical Device (LHD) project have been serviced by the Analyzed Data Server system, and approximately 600 kinds of physical data are served. In order to execute simulation programs for the LHD experiment, one must gather sets of physical data. Because the Automatic Analyzed Server (AutoAna) calculates the physical data automatically, it eases the scientist’s task of collecting these physical data. The AutoAna has provided better computing environments for the scientists. Thus, the scientists, having recognized its benefits, make various requests as issues arise. In this paper, the authors introduce the current status of the AutoAna system.
