A Challenge: Enhancing Use of Data • Multidisciplinary science and national user facilities generating large, complex datasets that are becoming unmanageable • Existing data (experiment and simulation) can be far better exploited if it can be effectively shared, searched, and accessed • Far better utilization of existing resources and facilities • Can approach new problems enabled by the above • Integrating data to enhance iterative feedback (ex. experiment and simulation)
Scientific Data Management Systems • The problem is here today for experimentalists • The concepts are understood to deal with the problems • A lot of technologies are available that can attack these problems • The tools have yet to be implemented for existing experimental communities • Commercial tools are either not available or require significant development and modification (ex CMS) • The DOE facilities and collaboratories present specific examples of problems and communities that can be defined and approached within a reasonable time-frame
Scientific Data Management SystemsCommon Themes • Data mining, effective searching • Provenance, pedigree,versioning, workflow • Schema engineering • design, tools, implementation, evolution, collaboration • Metadata management • source, science schema, workflow, archival, etc. • Linking (multilevel, federated) • data, databases, schemas, systems, etc. • Access • Portals, CMS, security, interfacing, standards • Real-time, reliability, and capacity issues
Cyberinfrastructure & National User Facilities • Information • Coordination • Education • Conferencing • Telepresence • Telecollaboratory
A Challenge: Paying for it all • Facilities can set aside small portion • Common needs for many facilities • Leveraging resources • Sharing resources • Initiatives for common challenges
