EII targets consolidated research towards the comprehensive development & establishment of advanced information infrastructures. Its prime purpose is to provide a forum for intellectual exchange by diverse yet complementary research groups, to address the fundamental research problems faced by scientific & business communities when dealing with deployment of information technology to globally distributed, and data intensive environments. EII will address 3 tightly coupled research themes: Ability to interoperate across existing heterogenous platforms & applications; Efficient processing of very large data sets; Technology adoption & impact. Generic results will be applicable to e-science and large business information systems installations.Read moreRead less

Summary
A database for Australian optical astronomy. We will build an astronomy data facility to provide database facilities to analyse data from three major Australian optical astronomy projects, SkyMapper, WiggleZ and GAMA. The facility will provide efficient analysis tools not only for the researchers immediately involved with the projects, but, for the entire national and international astronomical community when the data become public. Long-term maintenance of the facility is vital, so the facilit ....A database for Australian optical astronomy. We will build an astronomy data facility to provide database facilities to analyse data from three major Australian optical astronomy projects, SkyMapper, WiggleZ and GAMA. The facility will provide efficient analysis tools not only for the researchers immediately involved with the projects, but, for the entire national and international astronomical community when the data become public. Long-term maintenance of the facility is vital, so the facility will be standards-compliant and stable to facilitate long-term support. For this reason the facility will be based at the ANU Supercomputer Facility (ANUSF) to leverage substantial expertise in this area and to provide long-term operations support.Read moreRead less
