e main objective of the ADMIRE project is to establish this control by creating anactive I/O stack that dynamically adjusts computation and storage requirements through intelligent global coordination, malleability of computationand I/O, and the scheduling of storage resources along all levels of the storage hierarchy. To achieve this, we will develop a software-defined framework based on the principles of scalable monitoring and control, separated control and data paths, and the orchestration of key system components and applications through embedded control points.
