2 Norway: evita evita = e-science, Theory and Applications ( ) Research & innovation e-infrastructure 1

3 escience escience (or Scientific Computing or Computational Science) is about distributed global collaboration in key areas of science, using the next generation research infrastructures now available. einfrastructure and escience are inseparable components of research. The borderline between einfrastructure and escience is not always clear: sometimes the technological tool is also the scientific tool. Until now, the building of services for escience has primarily taken place on a national basis, e.g., through national programmes on escience or through national einfrastructure providers. Globalization of einfrastructure and escience is pushed by EC. 2

7 e-science e-science Drives Competitiveness Reducing costs by prototyping Shorter time to result / market Allowing investigations where economics or ethics prohibit experimentation Imperative of scientific computing Validate theory Allowing (virtual) investigations that are impossible in real life 6

8 Research Infrastructure Research infrastructure refers to facilities, resources and related services of a unique nature that are used by the scientific community to conduct top-level research in their respective fields. This covers major scientific equipment or set(s) of instruments; knowledge based-resources such as collections, archives or structured scientific information; einfrastructure; human resources; any other entity of a unique nature essential to achieve excellence in research. Research infrastructures may be single-sited, distributed (a network of resources) or virtual (the services being provided electronically). 7

9 ESFRI The European Roadmap for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) is the first comprehensive definition at the European level. As of today, 44 ESFRI initiatives have been proposed. Research Infrastructures are one of the crucial pillars of the future European Research Area. The e-infrastructure Reflection Group (e-irg) was founded to define and recommend best practices for the pan-european e-infrastructure efforts. 8 8

10 Trends : Research Infrastructure Research efforts require massive computing resources to tackle grand challenge and global problems in climate, medicine, Modern research is impossible without permanent access to highquality computers, networks, on-line library resources and research data, software tools for collaborative research (middleware), services for finding and accessing data, and applications to process and present research activity Easy access to (and good management of) scientific data is a growing requirement. Data must be saved for future shared use. 9

11 Norway: evita evita = e-science, Theory and Applications ( ) Research & innovation e-infrastructure 10

12 e-infrastructure The term e-infrastructure is used for ICT-based technology, virtual organisations and associated services that support distributed global research collaborations in a fully integrated manner. Technologies include: - computer and storage facilities - on-line content (research data, ) - high-performance, high-capacity networks - software, grids, collaborative environments - support for software development and life-cycle management - tools to manage authentication, access and shared use of resources Using e-infrastructure, researchers can e.g., share data collections, compute resources, instruments, and environments for analysis. 11

13 e-infrastructure NSF vision on e-infrastructure: national-level integrated system of hardware, software, data resources and services to enable new paradigms of science. e-infrastructure is the integrating mechanism, the glue between different scientific disciplines and regions 12

19 Grids The grid is a category of services and approaches to the research process which use einfrastructure in a particularly advanced way. The grid provides services for seamless distributed computation, aggregation of resources, and distributed data management Norwegian Grid Initiative: NorGrid EGEE: EGI: 2010 NDGF: NorGrid:

20 Access Access to the national e-infrastructure is by application: - Two calls per year - Proposals are evaluated by a Resource Allocation Committee appointed by the Research Council of Norway One can apply for access to: - HPC resources (Notur) - Storage resources and related services (NorStore) - Advanced user support: for porting of applications, complex application enabling. etc. The e-infrastructure does not develop application software. This remains the reponsibility of the researcher 19

28 European DCI An effort to establish a sustainable grid infrastructure in Europe, starting Will succeed EGEE-III ( ). Foundations of EGI are the National Grid Initiatives (NGIs) that operate the grid infrastructures in each country. EGI Design Study ( ): - identify processes for establishing EGI - define functions, organization, funding models - initiate the construction of EGI Norwegian NGI = NorGrid Consortium of UiO, UiT, UiB/Unifob, UNINETT/Sigma 27

29 European DCI EGI is the Distributed Computing Infrastructure for Europe EGI = EGI.eu + NGIs + Europe s largest research organizations - CERN - EMBL -... Specialized Support Centres (SSCs) are defined on top of EGI, e.g., for HEP, chemistry, material science, fusion,... 28

30 European Scientific Data PARADE is a consortium of national e-infrastructure projects to establish European infrastructure for scientific data. Large research infrastructures are interested, including ESFRI/CLARIN, EMBL,... The goal is that this effort eventually will lead to a new Europeanwide permanent infrastructure on scientific data, that co-exists with EGI (distribute computing) and PRACE (high-end computing). 29
