Online relationships in social networks are often based on real world and can therefore be used to infer a level of trust between users. We propose leveraging these form dynamic "Social Cloud," thereby enabling users share heterogeneous resources within the context network. In addition, inherent socially corrective mechanisms (incentives, disincentives) enable cloud-based framework for long term sharing with lower privacy concerns security overheads than present traditional cloud...

High-level programming languages such as Python are increasingly used to provide intuitive interfaces libraries written in lower-level and for assembling applications from various components. This migration towards orchestration rather than implementation, coupled with the growing need parallel computing (e.g., due big data end of Moore's law), necessitates rethinking how parallelism is expressed programs. Here, we present Parsl, a scripting library that augments simple, scalable, flexible...

The act of sharing scientific knowledge is rapidly evolving away from traditional articles and presentations to the delivery executable objects that integrate data computational details (e.g., scripts workflows) upon which findings rely. This envisioned coupling process essential advancing science but faces technical institutional barriers. Whole Tale project aims address these barriers by connecting computational, data-intensive research efforts with larger process—transforming discovery...

Cloud computing provides a scalable platform through which large datasets can be stored and analyzed. However, because of the number storage models used rapidly increasing data sizes, it is often difficult to efficiently securely access, transfer, synchronize, share data. The authors describe approaches taken by Globus create standard interfaces common security for performing these actions on quantities These are general, allowing users access different types cloud with same ease they local...

Social network platforms have rapidly changed the way that people communicate and interact. They enabled establishment of, participation in, digital communities as well representation, documentation exploration of social relationships. We believe `apps' become more sophisticated, it will easier for users to share their own services, resources data via networks. To substantiate this, we present a compute cloud where provisioning infrastructure occurs through "friend" In cloud, resource owners...

While the Machine Learning (ML) landscape is evolving rapidly, there has been a relative lag in development of "learning systems" needed to enable broad adoption. Furthermore, few such systems are designed support specialized requirements scientific ML. Here we present Data and Hub for science (DLHub), multi-tenant system that provides both model repository serving capabilities with focus on applications. DLHub addresses two significant shortcomings current systems. First, its self-service...

Exploding data volumes and velocities, new computational methods platforms, ubiquitous connectivity demand approaches to computation in the sciences. These must enable be mobile, so that, for example, it can occur near data, triggered by events (e.g., arrival of data), offloaded specialized accelerators, or run remotely where resources are available. They also require design which monolithic applications decomposed into smaller components, that may turn executed separately on most suitable...

Powerful detectors at modern experimental facilities routinely collect data multiple GB/s. Online analysis methods are needed to enable the collection of only interesting subsets such massive streams, as by explicitly discarding some elements or directing instruments relevant areas space. Thus, required for configuring and running distributed computing pipelines—what we call flows—that link instruments, computers (e.g., analysis, simulation, artificial intelligence [AI] model training), edge...
