This project focuses on integrating all simulation activities with Dropbox on a file system. The data-centric concept highlights the importance of data over computation, emphasizing the need to manage data effectively. The Active Folder system allows users to handle data their way, connecting to cloud storage and computing resources seamlessly. Through drag-and-drop features, users can execute activities, access products, and synchronize files with legacy software for efficient work processes. Watch our demo videos to learn more!

Data Centric Concept • DatavsComputation • Data have been traditionally considered as part(input, output) ofcomputing • However, Data are more important to researcher than computation itself • Typical Data Usage • Use results for analyzing and produce new data from those • Need to handle a lot of cases • Use legacy SW tools which are popular in each research area • What we need … • Data themselves contain meta information • Data are eventually located on local file system automatically and opened by legacy SW as they are • Allow user to manage data by their own way Grid & Cloud Computing Lab.
Operations on Data Sharing Network • Computing • Editing • Uploading Usage Product Data Application Plan Store • Job/Workflow • Scheduling • Storage • Management Grid & Cloud Computing Lab.

Active Folder – Cloud Computing • Connecting to High Performance Computing Resource • Virtualize Grid/Cloud computing resource as regular folder • Simply Drag & Drop Activity Folder(contains Job) to there for executing Activities Servers Active Folder Cloud Computing Grid Computing Open Virtualized as a folder 1-2-sphere Execute NAMD Amazon EC2 Drag & Drop Grid & Cloud Computing Lab.
Active Folder – Products • Using Products on My Computer • Legacy SW can access the products as local file • Synchronized between client and server by Dropbox Active Folder On-line Changing is applied automatically whenever connected Of- line Accessing synchronized files Grid & Cloud Computing Lab.
