Summary
Data Grid -- Access Layer. Vast increases in computing power and the arrival of new scientific instruments are contributing to the so-called data deluge of the 21st century. Accessing and archiving these data is essential to research. While the underlying computing and network requirements are well resourced, data access has been relatively neglected in Australia. A continuing problem in Australian research communities is the absence of coordinated access to digital storage resources. In many ca ....Data Grid -- Access Layer. Vast increases in computing power and the arrival of new scientific instruments are contributing to the so-called data deluge of the 21st century. Accessing and archiving these data is essential to research. While the underlying computing and network requirements are well resourced, data access has been relatively neglected in Australia. A continuing problem in Australian research communities is the absence of coordinated access to digital storage resources. In many cases computational and experimental data are stored on ad-hoc resources, such as local university servers, PC disc drives, and are not generally accessible. The central goal of this proposal is to provide access to an integrated scientific data storage capacity for Australia.Read moreRead less

Vast increases in computing power and the arrival of new scientific instruments are contributing to the so-called data deluge of the 21st century. Archiving these data is essential to research. While the underlying computing and network requirements are well resourced, data storage capacity has been relatively neglected in Australia. A continuing problem in Australian research communities is the absence of coordinated digital storage resources. In many cases computational and experimental data are stored on ad-hoc resources, such as local university servers, PC disc drives, CDs, or DVDs, and are not generally accessible. The central goal of this proposal is to provide a long-term, integrated scientific data storage capacity for Australia. Read moreRead less
