  1. The Developing Needs for e-infrastructures Professor John Wood, Chair, JISC Committee for the Support of Research

  2. ESFRI E urope an S trate gy F orum o n Research Infrastructures What is ESFRI? • The European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures • Brings together representatives of the 27 Member States,5 Associated States, and one representative of the European Commission (EC) • Projects must be “open access” and genuinely Pan-European or Global

  3. Social Science and Humanities 6 Projects CLARIN CESSDA EROHS ESS SHARE DARIAH

  4. CLARIN Social Science and Humanities • Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure • language resources and technology available and useful to scholars of all disciplines, in particular the humanities and social sciences • harmonise structural and terminological differences • based on a Grid-type of infrastructure and by using Semantic Web technology www.mpi.nl/clarin

  5. CESSDA Social Science and Humanities • Council of European Social Science Data Archives • distributed RI that provides and facilitates access of researchers to high quality data and supports their use • now 21 countries in Europe • 15,000 data collections • access to over 20,000 researchers www.nsd.uib.no/cessda

  6. DARIAH Social Science and Humanities • Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities) • based upon an existing network of Data Centres and Services based in Germany (Max Planck Society), France (CNRS), the Netherlands (DANS) and the United Kingdom (AHDS) • bring essential cultural heritage online. www.dariah.eu

  7. SHARE Social Science and Humanities • Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe • fact‑based economic and social science analyses of the on-going changes in Europe due to population ageing • will be expanded to all 27 member States of the EU. www.share-project.org

  8. Environmental Sciences AURORA BOREALIS IAGOS-ERI 7 Projects EUFAR EURO-ARGO EMSO LIFEWATCH ICOS

  9. EMSO Environmental Sciences • deep sea-floor observatories deployed on specific sites offshore European coastline • allow continuous monitoring for environment and security. • part of a global endeavour in sea-floor observatories • long term monitoring of environmental processes related to ecosystem life and evolution, global changes and geo-hazards • key component of GMES and GEOSS. www.ifremer.fr/esonet/emso

  10. EURO-ARGO Environmental Sciences • European component of a world wide in situ global ocean observing system • based on autonomous profiling floats throughout the ice-free areas of the deep ocean • data are transmitted in real time by satellite to data centres for processing, management, and distribution www.coriolis.eu.org

  11. LIFEWATCH Environmental Sciences • protection, management and sustainable use of biodiversity • network of observatories, facilities for data integration and interoperability • virtual laboratories offering a range of analytical and modelling tools • a Service Centre providing special services for scientific and policy users, including training and research opportunities for young scientists www.lifewatch.eu/

  12. ICOS Environmental Sciences • Integrated Carbon Observation System • co-ordinated, integrated, long-term high‑quality observational data of the greenhouse balance of Europe and of adjacent key regions of Siberia and Africa www.carboeurope.org

  13. Energy Need to nucleate further work IFMIF HiPER 3 Projects JHR

  14. HiPER Energy • large scale laser system designed to demonstrate significant energy production from inertial fusion • supporting a broad base of high power laser interaction science • revolutionary approach to laser‑driven fusion known as “Fast Ignition” www.hiper-laser.org

  15. IFMIF Energy • International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility • accelerator‑based very high flux neutron source to provide a suitable data base on irradiation effects on material needed for the construction of a fusion reactor www-dapnia.cea.fr

  16. Biomedical and Life Sciences 6 Projects STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY BIOBANKS CLINICAL TRIALS EATRIS Upgrade of EBI INFRAFRONTIER

  17. European Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Biomedical and Life Sciences • network of existing and de novo biobanks and biomolecular resources • samples from patients and healthy persons, molecular genomic resources and bioinformatics tools www.biobanks.eu

  18. INFRAFRONTIER Biomedical and Life Sciences • “Phenomefrontier”: in vivo imaging and data management tools, for the phenotyping of medically relevant mouse models • “Archivefrontier” state-of-the-art archiving and dissemination of mouse models (major upgrade of the European Mouse Mutant Archive (EMMA)) www.eumorphia.org | www.emma.rm.cnr.it

  19. The European Spallation Source Material Sciences • world’s most powerful source of neutrons. • built-in upgradeability • initial 20 instruments • will serve 4,000 users annually across many areas of science and technology. http://neutron.neutron-eu.net/n_ess

  20. ESRF Upgrade Material Sciences • European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) • supported and shared by 17 European countries and Israel. • wide range of disciplines including physics, chemistry and materials science as well as biology, medicine, geophysics and archaeology • many industrial applications, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, petrochemicals and microelectronics. www.esrf.fr
