Summary Science gateways are digital interfaces to advanced technologies that support science/engineering research/education. Frequently implemented as Web and mobile applications, they provide access community resources such software, data, collaboration tools, instrumentation, high‐performance computing. We anticipate opportunities for growth within a fragmented community. Through large‐scale survey, we measured the extent characteristics of gateway (reliance on nature existing resources)...

Software is the key crosscutting technology that enables advances in mathematics, computer science, and domain-specific science engineering to achieve robust simulations analysis for engineering, other research fields. However, software itself has not traditionally received focused attention from communities; rather, evolved organically inconsistently, with its development largely as by-products of initiatives. Moreover, challenges scientific are expanding due disruptive changes hardware,...

Locating resources of interest in a large resource-intensive environment is challenging problem. In this paper we present research on addressing problem through the development recommender system to aid metadata discovery. Our approach uses conversational case-based reasoning (CCBR), with semantic Web markup languages providing standard form for case representation. We our initial efforts designing and developing ontologies an Earthquake Simulation Grid, use these guide retrieval, discuss...
