The Molecular and Materials Structure Network will propel leading-edge Science by building powerful e-Science resources that will compel innovative collaborations of profound National benefit. Remote access will be developed for structure determination instruments, including the Research Reactor and Australian Synchrotron. A structure database with cross disciplinary content and powerful visualisation and analysis capabilities will exemplify "smart information use". Encompassing physics, computer science, chemistry and biochemistry, and catalysing interaction across these disciplines, the MMSN will impact all four National Research Priority 3 goals, and will be linked to other national and international Grids to become part of the emerging global Grid.Read moreRead less

Summary
Collection, Sharing, Visualisation and Analysis of locally gathered information from geographically remote areas vulnerable to tidal waves. This project will set up a virtual organization for tsunami related data analysis using grid technology. Due to geologically remote areas/countries involved the sharing of seismic, tidal and other locally gathered tsunami related information is critical to issuing a warning.

This project will set up a virtual organization for tsunami related data analysis using grid technology. Due to geologically remote areas/countries involved the sharing of seismic, tidal and other locally gathered tsunami related information is critical to issuing a warning. In collaboration with Australian and International partners, this project will explore: new avenues of tsunami-related data collection, which are currently not available; new data fusion methods; data sharing strategies; visualisation and analysis methods; and develop sensing methods to gather data on animal behaviours often reported as a possible way of identifying similar disasters.Read moreRead less
