Reinforcing Infrastructure withthe eotPACIComputational Science Resource Community http://www.edcenter.sdsu.edu/csrc/ Online Community-Building Kris Stewart, stewart@sdsu.eduJeff Sale, jsale@edcenter.sdsu.edu Mikhail Burstein, mikhail@edcenter.sdsu.edu SDSC GSM Dec. 13, 2000
Need for Online Community • Explosion of online computational science resources of varying quality, purpose, state of development, … • Useful to develop online repositories that are scaleable, searchable and dynamic(easy to update and add comments) • Faculty and their students need learning on demand assistance
Primary Goal Establish an online community to facilitate and encourage sharing and evaluation of computational science resources, usable in instruction.
Discipline Communities (peer reviewed) 12 more by the end of 2001 NPACI/CSU Collaboration California State University • National Partnership for Advanced Computational Infrastructure • National Computational Science Alliance • Education, Outreach and Training Partnership for Advanced Computational Infrastructure OCSK Computational Science Resource Community eotPACI
Advancing the Infratructure (NPACI Theme Song) • Resources -- Today’s Digital Laboratory • High-performance computing available today to the academic community • Develop and Deploy • Technology and application collaborations to push the capabilities of tomorrow’s digital laboratory • Use and Apply • Computational scientists applying enhanced capabilities to achieve new scientific results • Disseminate and Incorporate • Incorporating technologies into the digital laboratory and disseminating them for use in new communities
