  2. Virtual Lab for e-ScienceTowards a new Science Paradigm Project Director: Prof. Dr. L.O. Hertzberger This work is supported by a BSIK grant of the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OC&W) and is part of the ICT innovation programme of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs (EZ)

  3. Application Specific Part Application ICT Overhead Application Application Application Specific Part Specific Part Specific Part Application ICT • Traditional position of ICT in science: • Application running on a single machine… • ➨Little ICT overhead, no collaboration • and/or sharing of data and information • Evolving technological developments like Grid, • networks and Service Oriented Architecture • allow sharing ofdata and information through • distributed computing and storage, thus enabling • scientific applications to do experiments that had • not been possible before… • ➨Introduces large ICT overhead • ➨ Requires extensive ICT knowledge • ➨ Application scientist forced to focus on • ICT problems rather than science Scientific Application

  4. Application Specific Part Application ICT Overhead Application Application Application Specific Part Specific Part Specific Part • On the other hand, e-Scienceis already based on • Grid and other supporting ICT… • ➨To stimulate scientific applications to • adopt e-Science an infrastructure is • needed! Scientific Application • Frameworks like VL-e are providing basic services • which will hide computing resources and boost the • development of data and computationally intensive • e-Science applications on a large scale distributed • infrastructure… • ➨Application scientist can increase his • productivity, while focusing on his own • science rather than on ICT problems
