  1. EU enabling global research: connectivity, data, computation, co-operationeAGE2014 Conference, Muscat, Oman 10-11 December 2014 Aniyan Varghese European Commission - DG CONNECT

  2. Vision • Achieving Digital ERA • Bridge digital divides • Every researcher digital

  3. Approach • Transversal • Cutting across disciplines and sectors • Support tomorrow’s science • Open science, open access, best solutions • Enabling innovation • Developing and testing innovative solutions • Servicing industry and SMEs • Spinning out technologies

  4. DRIVERS for change • MORE COMPUTING POWER • BIG DATA • GLOBAL CONNECTIONS • GLOBAL PARTICIPATION • OPEN IS BETTER • WITHIN ANDBETWEEN SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITIES • BETWEEN SCIENCE AND SOCIETY

  5. More COMPUTING POWER MIT Technology Review, 2012 Future of learning technology - 2015, Amit Grag, 2010

  6. BIG DATA … Business and the Digital Universe, IDC, 2012

  7. GLOBAL CONNECTIONS …

  8. GÉANT • Communication Commons for 50 million users in over 10,000 institutions across 40 countries • 50000km of cross-borders links including 12000 km of darkfiber • range of innovative services operated24x7 including • wifi federatedaccess – eduroam – growingat 100%+ y/y and adopted WW • Federatedaccess to content – eduGAIN – adopted WW • Globallyconnected to all peeringregional clusters in the world as well as to developed countries • Open innovation through open competitive call attracting 70 proposals of which 21 wereselected for a total EC funding of 3.3 M€

  9. FET Human Brain Project,… Societal Challenges SC1 Research on Alzheimer LEIT Big Data in ICT Manufacturing PPP Internet of Things… SC2… SC3 Earth observation SC4, SC5, … e-Infrastructure integrates resources and services… • e-Infrastructure to support: • Research under Horizon 2020 • Open Access policy • Open Data pilot • Data Management Planning • … Networking Computing Data Software User interfaces e-Infrastructures

  10. Global Virtual Research Community e-Science e-Health e-Learning e-Business neuroscience genomics environment biomedicine e-Infrastructure (Gridempowered) broadband automatic management security semantic web. Grid mobility

  11. … Earth Obs … life … scientific data infrastructure HPC/distributed computing/software infrastructure network infrastructure, GÉANT e-infrastructure building bridges

  12. ENVRI Implementation cluster for Environment EU funding : 3.7 M€, started in 2011 • Development of common reference model , standards, and common components for data pre-processing and post-processing • Contribution to GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems) and compliance with INSPIRE EC Directive • Large participation of ICT and e-infrastructures actors (key partners from D4SCIENCE, GENESI, EGI, EUDAT, PRACE…) SIOS LIFE- WATCH EURO- ARGO EPOS EISCAT EMSO ICOS

  13. Importance of HPC Bio/Life Sciences Weather, Climate & Earth Sciences New applications e.g. Health, Big data Industrial & Engineering Fundamental sciences: Physics, Chemistry, Material Sciences, Astrophysics

  14. European HPC Strategy – an integrated approach in H2020 • Basis: Commission Communication "High-Performance Computing: Europe's place in a Global Race"(2012) • Vision:to ensure European leadership in the supply and use of HPC systems and services by 2020 in a strategy combining: • developing the next generation of HPC towards exascale; • providing access to the best HPC infrastructure for both industry and academia; • achieving excellence in computing applications - existing or new – driven by the needs of science, industry and SMEs • Linking demand and supply – in the spirit of Horizon 2020 • Contractual Public-Private Partnership (cPPP) covering (a) and part of (c)

  15. Research Data become the infrastructure for modern science Europe is Riding the Wave • Data e-infrastructure that supports seamless access, use, re-use and trust of data • Physical and technical infrastructure become invisible and the data becomes the infrastructure • Valuable asset on which science, technology, the economy and society can advance • Commission Communication on Scientific InformationCOM(2012)401 final (July 2012) • Access, preservation and e-infrastructure (publications and data) • ERA Communication COM(2012)392 • Federation of researcher electronic identities Riding the Wave High Level Expert Group on Scientific Data, October 2010 http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/ict/e-infrastructure/docs/hlg-sdi-report.pdf
