e-Science • ‘e-Science is about global collaboration in key areas of science, and the next generation of infrastructure that will enable it.’John Taylor, DG of UK OST • ‘[The Grid] intends to make access to computing power, scientific data repositories and experimental facilities as easy as the Web makes access to information.’ TonyBlair, 2002 • What is the web? J G Frey
Publication@Source • Trace all the way back from publication to the original data – provenance CombeChem • Who needs provenance? Bush, Blair The JIC, MI5, CIA & Hutton 2004 J G Frey
The CombeChem Project • The exponential world of combinatorial synthesis and high throughput analysis meets the exponentially growing power of computing • Automation, Semantics & the Grid” • End to End linking of data and information • In chemistry this can be a very long chain –from a lab to inside a mouse J G Frey
The CombeChem Project • Collect data with regard to how it could eventually be used • Make sure the metadata is of high quality • Record properly at source • The Chemistry Lab • People & Machines working together J G Frey

Network Dangers? J G Frey
You still use FORTRAN!! Chemists and programming • Many Chemists think that they can program J G Frey
e-Workflow Some Chemistscan What about that! His brain still uses perl scripts J G Frey
Much more automation in modern chemistry “That is so cool Dave, you only need a palm pilot” J G Frey
Make sure the computer scientists know what you actually do J G Frey “No, I don’t want to play chess, I just want to reheat the lasagne”
Pub/Sub for Laboratory data using a broker and ultimately delivered over GPRS J G Frey

Standards – now not just at the data level but metadata level as well e-worries WSRF Must ensure this is not a problem for applications GTi J G Frey
