  1. NCBioGrid Project Overview January 24, 2002 Phil Emer

  2. Agenda • Project goals • Project structure • Working groups • Timelines and call for participation • Summary

  3. Project Goals • Build a production infrastructure that: • Serves a diverse community of researchers and educators • Virtualizes compute, storage, data, and network resources • Provides a unified view to a growing set of distributed resources • Scales with number of users and resource requirements • Embraces emerging technologies in distributed computing • Leverages our resources and our strengths • Allow the scientist to concentrate on science • Allow the systems administrator to concentrate on IT • Enable and facilitate innovation in life sciences research • Built-in measurement capabilities for: • Measuring success • Capturing usage data

  4. Project Structure • Two Phases (at least) • Phase I – Project planning • Build a test-bed for proof of concept • Create a project plan specifying the requirements to build the production NCBioGrid • Phase II – NCBioGrid Development • Implement the plan developed in phase I • Phase N – NCBioGrid version N

  5. Phase I – Working Groups • Computational Biology • Chaired by Jack Da Silva • Target 3-4 research applications • User requirements and map workflows • Specify the user interface • Grid Infrastructure • Chaired by Chuck Kesler • Develop test-plans • Build test-bed environment • Research and implement hardware and software technologies • NCBioGrid Project Planning and Architecture • Chaired by Phil Emer • Develop project plan

  6. About the Testbed • Develop a testbed environment that serves as: • A staging area for the production NCBioGrid • A research platform for Grid researchers • An interoperability testbed for the computing hardware, middleware, and application software vendor community • Non-production infrastructure with representative: • Hardware and software platforms • User endsystem platforms • Location dynamics • Persistent piece of the NCBioGrid infrastructure throughout the life of the project

  7. Timelines and Call for Participation • 1/24/2002 • Project Kickoff • Phase 0 ends and Phase I begins • 1/24 – 3/1/2002 • Staff working groups • Formalize Phase I plan • 1/24 – 5/1/2002 • Draft Phase II Plan • Deploy initial NCBioGrid Testbed • All dates cast in stone** **exception: any dates that have not yet passed

  8. Summary • Develop The reference implementation for scalable collaboration in the life sciences • Develop a general distributed computing architecture • Enable innovation in life sciences research • Develop a test-bed environment that serves as a strategic asset • Provide leadership in life sciences research as a community
