Agenda
  • Motivation
  • Modeling Collaboration
  • The Challenges for e-scientists
  • Five Pilot Projects
  • Lessons learned

3
New Science Paradigms
  • Thousand years ago Experimental Science
  • - description of natural phenomena
  • Last few hundred years Theoretical Science
  • - Newtons Laws, Maxwells Equations
  • Last few decades Computational Science
  • - simulation of complex phenomena
  • Today e-Science or Data-centric Science
  • - unify theory, experiment, and simulation
  • - using data exploration and data mining
  • Data captured by instruments
  • Data generated by simulations
  • Processed by software
  • Scientist analyzes databases/files
  • (With thanks to Jim Gray)

5
The Problem for the e-Scientist
  • Data Query and Visualization tools
  • Support/training
  • Performance
  • Execute queries in a minute
  • Batch (big) query scheduling
  • Data ingest
  • Managing a petabyte
  • Common schema
  • How to organize it?
  • How to reorganize it?
  • How to coexist cooperate with others?

6
Scientific Data Life Cycle
  • Data Acquisition
  • Data Ingest
  • Metadata
  • Annotation
  • Provenance
  • Data Storage
  • Data Cleansing
  • Data Mining
  • Curation
  • Preservation

7
What is a Scientific Collaboration ?
  • Definition two or more people work together to
    create or achieve the same thing.
  • Inter-discipline guys
  • Teamwork
  • Agreement
  • Common interests
  • Divide task into several works
  • Discuss problems, use instruments and share
    information
  • Goal create new knowledge
  • The Problem is how to make this things happen?
  • Solution Human Cooperation Resource Share

8
Basic Collaboration Model---G.Olson
  • People to People
  • Communication
  • Groupware Service
  • Access to Facilities
  • Interaction with the Physical World
  • Access to Instrument online
  • Access to Information
  • Digital Libraries, E-Pub
  • Search Service

The concept back from 1989
National Collaboratories ---Applying IT for
Scientific Research , NAP, 1993

Current collaboration technology
  • Electronic communication tools send messages,
    files, data, or documents between people and
    hence facilitate the sharing of information.
  • e-mail
  • faxing
  • voice mail
  • Web publishing
  • Electronic conferencing tools also facilitate the
    sharing of information, but in a more interactive
    way.
  • data conferencing networked PCs share a common
    "whiteboard" that each user can modify
  • voice conferencing telephones allow users to
    interact
  • video conferencing (and audio conferencing)
    networked PCs share video or audio signals
  • Internet forums (also known as message boards or
    discussion boards) a virtual discussion
    platform to facilitate and manage online text
    messages
  • chat rooms a virtual discussion platform to
    facilitate and manage real-time text messages
  • electronic meeting systems (EMS) a conferencing
    system built into a room. The special purpose
    room will usually contain a large screen
    projector interlinked with numerous PCs.
  • Collaborative management tools facilitate and
    manage group activities.
  • electronic calendars (also called time management
    software) schedule events and automatically
    notify and remind group members
  • project management systems schedule, track, and
    chart the steps in a project as it is being
    completed
  • workflow systems collaborative management of
    tasks and documents within a knowledge-based
    business process
  • knowledge management systems collect, organize,
    manage, and share various forms of information
  • extranet systems (sometimes also known as
    'project extranets') collect, organize, manage
    and share information associated with the
    delivery of a project (eg the construction of a
    building)
  • social software systems organize social
    relations of groups

Lessons from SCC development
  • How to address the users application simpler?
  • System development is less and less about coding
    than about using things and gluing them together.
  • Create a flexible enough architecture to allow
    for changes.
  • Customers will not be able to elucidate at the
    start what they want only by using the system
    will they be able to tell you what you should
    have done.
  • SSC 1.0 rely on MS SharePoint SSC 2.0 open
    source
  • Future concerns should be e-community trust
    metrics.
