Industrial Participation • Contributions • advice and critical review (all participants) • testing CombiChem grid prototypes (Roche, Pfizer, CCDC) • software, advice and support (CCDC, IBM) • Benefits • assess knowledge sharing in/with industry (Roche, Pfizer) • assess industrial services potential (CCDC) • understand long-term infrastructure needs (IBM)
Objectives: Chemistry • Measurement and correlation of structures and properties of families of compounds and materials • Structure and property databases with links to modelling and simulation calculations • Provision of modern statistical software designed for combinatorial approaches • Methodology for the design of new materials with desired properties
The Grid • Grid is needed because • Volume of data (data, images, video) • Scale of computation (analysis, simulation) • Complexity of process (automation) • Grid service development • e-Lab (real-time, metadata, annotation) • Provenance (audit trials, timestamps, process) • e-Dissemination (exporting knowledge)
Growth of the Crystal Structure Database CombiChem will accelerate this trend!
