FY06 LDRD Final Report Data Intensive Computing
The goal of the data intensive LDRD was to investigate the fundamental research issues underlying the application of High Performance Computing (HPC) resources to the challenges of data intensive computing. We explored these issues through four targeted case studies derived from growing LLNL programs: high speed text processing, massive semantic graph analysis, streaming image feature extraction, and processing of streaming sensor data. The ultimate goal of this analysis was to provide scalable data management algorithms to support the development of a predictive knowledge capability consistent with the direction of Aurora.

Intelligence Authorization Legislation: Status and Challenges
This report assesses the effects of the absence of intelligence authorization legislation since FY2005. Since FY2005, no annual intelligence authorization bill has been enacted. Although the National Security Act requires intelligence activities to be specifically authorized, this requirement has been satisfied in recent years by one-sentence catch-all provisions in defense appropriations acts authorizing intelligence activities.

Reconciliation Instructions in the FY2006 Budget Resolution
The House and Senate reached final agreement on April 28, 2005, on a budget resolution for FY2006 (H.Con.Res. 95) which included reconciliation directives expected to lead to the consideration of three different reconciliation bills during the session: (1) an omnibus spending reduction measure, incorporating submissions from eight House and eight Senate committees; (2) a revenue reduction measure; and (3) a public debt limit increase measure. The omnibus spending bill is intended to reduce outlays by $1.519 billion for FY2006 and $34.658 billion for the five-year period covering FY2006 through FY2010; the revenue bill is intended to reduce revenues by $11 billion for FY2006 and $70 billion for the period FY2006-FY2010; and the third bill is intended to increase the public debt limit by $781 billion.

Quarterly progress report for Q1 FY06 for Complex Transient Events in Materials Studied Using Ultrafast Electron Probes and Terascale Simulation (FWP SCW0289)
This quarter (Q1 FY06) marked the first time that the LLNL dynamic transmission electron microscope (DTEM) configuration had advanced to the point whereby it was possible to conduct in-situ experiments on specimens. DTEM improvements continue to progress at a rapid pace. We summarize important achievements in the following list: (1) Instrument performance and design improvements - (a) Reproducibly achieving >1 x 10{sup 7} e{sup -} per pulse. Adjustments in the cathode laser system design led to an improved quantum efficiency and electron yield per pulse. The current number of electrons in the pulse is sufficient for acquiring high quality, single-shot electron diffraction patterns. (b) Implementation of computer interface and Labview{reg_sign} programs for cathode and specimen drive alignment and cathode and pump laser trigger and delay settings. These controls provide a user friendly interface and ease in the experimental setup and implementation. (c) Cathode test chamber (offline test apparatus to asses photocathode design and laser induced photoemission) construction has been completed. (2) Notable instrument features brought into service - (a) Drive laser system was enhanced to improve beam shape and uniformity and to include continuous laser energy monitoring. The drive laser spot size on the specimen was also reduced from 70 …

Quarterly progress report for Q2 FY06 for Complex Transient Events in Materials Studied Using Ultrafast Electron Probes and Terascale Simulation (FWP SCW0289)
In this quarter (Q2 FY06), the DTEM underwent a substantial reconfiguration of its laser systems. The cathode laser system was changed to provide greater numbers of electrons per pulse by lengthening the time duration of the pulse to 30 ns. The greater number of electrons per pulse has allowed us to acquire high quality pulsed images and diffraction patterns. The spatial resolution in the single pulsed image has been measured at better than 20 nm. The diffraction patterns are now more comparable to conventional electron microscope operation. Examples are found in the body of the report. We summarize important achievements in the following list: (1) Instrument performance and design improvements--(A) The laser system was changed for the cathode photoemission system (75 ns at 1053 nm wavelength converted to 30ns at 211 nm wavelength) to give longer electron pulses at the same current to yield more electrons per pulse. (B) New specimen drive laser constructed. (C) New computer monitored and controlled alignment systems installed for both laser systems to facilitate laser alignment through a user friendly computer interface. (2) Experimental Progress--(A) The spatial resolution of pulsed images was tested by imaging a cross-section of multilayer thin foils with 30 nm and …

Agriculture and FY2006 Budget Reconciliation
The FY2006 budget resolution (H.Con.Res. 95, H.Rept. 109-62) contains reconciliation instructions that require authorizing committees to report legislation to reduce spending on mandatory programs within each committee’s jurisdiction. The resolution instructed the House and Senate Agriculture Committees to report legislation reducing spending on USDA mandatory programs by $173 million in FY2006 and $3.0 billion over five years (FY2006-FY2010). The House and Senate Agriculture Committees have completed action on their recommendations ($3.65 billion in the House and $3.0 billion in the Senate). The two measures would reduce spending on farm commodity and conservation programs in varying ways. The House measure also eliminates funding for various rural development programs and reduces food stamp spending. The Senate extends authority for a dairy income support program, which would require an offset of its projected cost. Reconciliation floor action is expected in November.

Agriculture and FY2006 Budget Reconciliation
During the week of December 18, 2005, both the House and Senate approved the conference agreement on the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (H.Rept. 109-362, S. 1932), which includes net reductions of $2.7 billion over five years for USDA mandatory programs. Included in the agreement is a $1.7 billion reduction in farm commodity support programs, a $934 million reduction in conservation spending, a $620 million reduction in a mandatory research program, and $419 million cut in rural development programs, as scored by CBO over a five-year period (FY2006-2010). The measure also includes a two-year extension of a dairy income support program, at an estimated cost of $998 million. No reductions to food stamp spending were included in the conference agreement.

Emergency Funding for Agriculture: A Brief History of Supplemental Appropriations, FY1989-FY2006
From FY1989 through FY2006, 33 appropriations, authorization, or farm disaster acts added approximately $55.4 billion in supplemental funding for U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) programs. The two most recent supplemental appropriations were provided in response to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the Gulf of Mexico and in preparation for a possible U.S. outbreak of avian influenza. Some FY1989, the vast majority of the total supplemental funding has been paid directly to farmers, primarily through two mechanisms: "market loss payments" and crop disaster payments. This report includes the total annual funding additions in the 33 acts providing economic and farm disaster assistance through USDA programs since FY1989.
