Presentation Transcript

  1. Data Models John Shalf -- LBNL Presented to ACE-RG @ GGF6 October 16, 2002

  2. Data Models • What is it? • FEM, block structured data, AMR, Sensor Meshes • Why is it relevant to the Grid • Interoperability • Components architectures (ie. CCA) • Semantics vs. Syntax • XML, WSDL, encode syntax and protocol • Semantics are best encoded using human language • currently the only encoding for semantics

  3. Purpose of this RG • This is about “what” • What are scientists requirements • What is being used in practice • What are some commonalities in existing data schemas • What is a common vocabulary to talk about data models! • This is not about “how” • It will not endorse particular data schemas or formats • It will not create a standard data schema or format

  4. Data Models Document (Plan A) • Applications (why) • Science requirements for various fields • not necessarily comprehensive survey • Data Schemas (what) • AdHoc (SDS, FITS,..) • Unified (fiber bundles, sheafs, etc…) • File formats and representations (how) • How are we currently encoding this information • Markups: XDR, XML, … ?? • File Formats: HDF5, NetCDF, P3D …

  5. DMD (Plan B) • Ontology (what) • Create a language that helps us to talk to one another • Mapping to ontology (how) • Taxonomy, phylogenic trees • Evaluate the effectiveness of our ontology • Provides an index of best practices • Schema (another plane?) • Maybe we won’t have a common schema, but with an ontology, we can at least talk to each other sensibly about data representation • Interoperability (may) emerge here
