By leveraging current technologies to manage distributed climate data in a unified virtual environment, the Earth System Grid (ESG) project is promoting sharing between international research centers and diverse users. In transforming these into collaborative community resource, ESG changing way global conducted. Since ESG's production beginnings 2004, its most notable accomplishment was efficiently store distribute simulation of some 20 coupled ocean-atmosphere models scores scientific...
Describes the Scientific Annotation Middleware, a set of components and services that support creation use annotation metadata describing data objects semantic relationships among them. It captures aspects processing history research process federates results into coherent human- machine-interpretable record.
The open source electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) is a collaborative, distributed, Web-based system, designed to provide researchers with means record and share their primary research notes data. As most (EN) systems, the ELN was originally as closed system its own data repository implicit semantics. scientific annotation middleware (SAM) project, Department of Energy (DOE)-funded effort at Pacific Northwest Oak Ridge National Laboratories, envisions new model in which ENs are simply one...
The international climate community is expected to generate hundreds of petabytes simulation data within the next five seven years. This must be accessed and analyzed by thousands analysts worldwide in order provide accurate timely estimates likely impact change on physical, biological, human systems. Climate thus not only a scientific challenge first but also major technological challenge. In address this challenge, Earth System Grid Center for Enabling Technologies (ESG-CET) has been...
The Scientific Annotation Middleware (SAM) is a set of components and services that enable researchers, applications, problem solving environments (PSE) software agents to create metadata annotations about data objects document the semantic relationships between them. Developed starting in 2001, SAM allows applications encode within files or manage at level individual as desired. then provides mechanisms expose encoded either way WebDAV properties. In this paper, we report on work further...
The recent release of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 4th Assessment Report (AR4) has generated significant media attention. Much been said about US role in this report, which included support from Department Energy through Scientific Discovery Advanced Computing (SciDAC) and other (DOE) programs for climate model development production execution simulations. SciDAC-supported Earth System Grid Center Enabling Technologies (ESG-CET) also played a major IPCC AR4: all...
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) is a state-of-the-art neutron scattering facility recently commissioned by the US Department of Energy (DOE). beam produced at SNS will have an intensity that order magnitude higher than existing facilities worldwide, enabling significantly better understanding and exploration into structure matter. billion-and-a-half dollar investment supporting research impacts diverse science domains such as materials, chemistry, engineering, polymers, structural...
PC clusters running Linux, provide the computational power of supercomputers just a few years ago at fraction purchase price. The lack good administration and user level application management tools makes operation more difficult than it need be results in an increased cost. This paper describes ongoing effort Oak Ridge National Laboratory to develop simplify use computation clusters. two integrated this work include M3C (Managing Monitoring Multiple Clusters) C3 (Cluster Command Control)...
In 2011, important priorities were set to realize green publications in the open access movement Germany. With financial support from German Research Foundation (DFG), libraries negotiated Alliance licenses with publishers that guarantee extensive rights. Authors of institutions, have therewith licensed journals, can freely publish their articles immediately or after a short embargo period repository choice. However, authors hesitantly use these Also – as managers institutional and subject...
Mit dem DFG-geforderten Projekt DeepGreen soll eine automatisierte, rechtssichere Losung entwickelt werden, um Artikeldaten von wissenschaftlichen Verlagen abzuholen und anschliesend, nach Ablauf etwaiger lizenzrechtlicher Embargofristen, an berechtigte Repositorien zu verteilen somit in den Open Access uberfuhren. Dabei liegt der Fokus auf uberregional verhandelten Allianz-Lizenzen, mit spezieller Open-Access-Komponente. Die vorliegende Handreichung richtet sich speziell die Betreiber...
