Recognition of the new requirement of infrastructure to support leading edge science and research Dependence on technology for future scientific advances Cyberinfastructure capabilities include computational power and high speed networks distributed, ad hoc and embedded sensor networks and arrays large data repositories systemic security large-scale interoperability and collaborative tools middleware CyberInfrastructureNSF Blue Ribbon Panel
The “last mile problem” continues and is especially serious for HBCUs, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and Hispanic institutions Research-group and departmental-scale facilities (100 to 1000x less powerful than national centers) are becoming increasingly important; thus, national centers need to be a factor of 100 to 1000x more capable High speed networks with high quality of service continue to be foundational to research and education at all levels On-demand (not pre-scheduled) and instantaneous access is becoming increasingly important (computers, data bases, networks) CyberInfrastructure: Future Infrastructure
Comprehensive environments are needed for linking models from multiple disciplines and for synthesizing results in interoperable frameworks The Computational Grid represents an important opportunity for the future and should receive high priority for support Inexpensive and reliable tools are needed to support distance collaborations Higher levels of security are needed CyberInfrastructure: Future Infrastructure
Grid Computing • Computational Grids are … • are enabling technology that permit the transparent coupling of geographically-dispersed resources (machines, networks, data storage, visualization devices, and scientific instruments) for large-scale distributed applications. • provide several important benefits for users and applications: convenient interfaces to remote resources, resource coupling for resource intensive distributed applications and remote collaboration, and resource sharing. • embody the confluence of high performance parallel computing, distributed computing, and Internet computing, in support of “big science.”
TeraGrid Computing Program • TeraGrid Is… • A collaborative endeavor • a single project with four sites • Argonne, Caltech, NCSA and SDSC • A new model for computational science • distributed, collaborative resources • bootstrapping of a new infrastructure • A production, national service • transition to and support for Grid applications • A collaborative endeavor
