SUMMARY:PEARC26: WKF-1-2: Understanding RCD Work: A Mixed-Methods Analysis of Activities\, Complexities\, and the Compensation of RCD Professionals in the US and Canada
DESCRIPTION:This paper presents initial mixed-methods results from a survey (N=818) of RCD Professionals’ demographics\, compensation\, and the complexities and challenges associated with RCD responsibilities and RCD facilitation. This work builds on the 2021 RCD Census by analyzing the 2025 RCD Workforce Survey results. Compared with the 2021 RCD Census Survey\, we increased the sample size by 45% (818 vs 563 valid responses) and improved measurement precision by capturing annual gross compensation as a continuous numeric variable. Results provide contextualization of RCD professional roles\, including the proportion of time spent on RCD activities and the percentage of time on each of the CaRCC Five Facings. The majority of professionals (60%)contribute directly to scholarly work or research projects. The median compensation for mid-career professionals was $86\,000 USD. \nAuthors: Ashley Stauffer\, Levi Dolan\, Ritika Giri\, Paula Valencia\,Kimberly Grasch\, Nandan Tandon\, Chris Reidy\, Kirk Anne andSemir Sarajlic \nRoom: Auditorium Room 3

SUMMARY:Systems-Facing Track – June 2026
DESCRIPTION:Myth vs Mythos: The Reality of CVEs and Research Computing\nThe number of CVEs affecting HPC and research computing systems has recently spiked\, and fears about the risks that AI poses to internet security have risen enough to garner media coverage. These two factors have resulted in HPC and research computing practitioners dealing with both significant patching activity and increased expectations to implement mitigations quickly. Does the current landscape warrant a change in how cybersecurity is approached\, is a tightening of existing practices sufficient\, or is there really a rise in vulnerabilities? This session will explore how institutions\, labs\, and research centers are dealing with the situation and offer perspectives on the current research cybersecurity landscape.

SUMMARY:Researcher-facing Track - June 2026
DESCRIPTION:2nd Thursdays of Each Month\n1p ET/ 12p CT/ 11a MT/ 10a PT/ 8a HT \nShould Your Institution Host an Open Source LLM? \nSpeakers:\nColtran Hophan-Nichols\, Director of Systems and Research Computing\, Montana State University\nJohnathan Lee\, Sr Systems Architect\, Research Technology Office\, Arizona State University \nAs interest in generative AI grows\, many institutions are exploring how to support large language models in ways that align with privacy\, security\, research\, and campus needs. This session will focus on local and institutionally managed open source LLMs as an alternative to closed\, commercial\, or provider-hosted services. We will discuss how institutions are aggregating demand\, designing sustainable services\, selecting infrastructure models\, and balancing usability\, cost\, governance\, security\, and support expectations. Drawing on emerging peer examples and broader federal interest in open-source AI\, participants will compare self-hosted hardware\, cloud-based managed infrastructure\, and hybrid approaches while considering the practical benefits\, challenges\, and tradeoffs of hosting open source LLMs on campus.
