  1. Enhancing Nanoscience with Cyberinfrastructure at the Center for Nanoscale Materials Derrick C. Mancini Associate Division Director for Facilities & Technology Project Manager, Center for Nanoscale Materials August 3, 2006 http://nano.anl.gov

  2. DOE BES Initiative for NanoScience & Technology: Nanoscale Science Research Centers DOE’s 5 NSRCs - http://www.sc.doe.gov/bes/NNI.htm • Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences (ORNL) • Molecular Foundry (LBNL) • Center for Functional Nanomaterials (BNL) • Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (SNL-LANL) • Center for Nanoscale Materials (ANL)

  3. Center for Nanoscale Materials • Federal/State partnership • $36 M DOE Equipment • $36 M State of Illinois Building • Building Occupancy - April ’06 • Full Operations - October ’07

  4. Center for Nanoscale Materials Mission Providing the Nation with a state-of-the-art User facility at Argonne National Laboratory for the development and dissemination of the techniques for the synthesis, fabrication, characterization and theory of materials at the nanoscale … • Sustain world-leading standards of scientific and technical excellence. • Ensure peer-reviewed, open access to the scientific community. … supporting the BES mission in fundamental research, energy security and the economy.

  14. A Challenge: Enhancing Use of Data • Multidisciplinary science and national user facilities generating large, complex datasets that are becoming unmanageable • Existing data (experiment and simulation) can be far better exploited if it can be effectively shared, searched, and accessed • Far better utilization of existing resources and facilities • Can approach new problems enabled by the above • Integrating data to enhance iterative feedback (ex. experiment and simulation)

  15. Scientific Data Management Systems • The problem is here today for experimentalists • The concepts are understood to deal with the problems • A lot of technologies are available that can attack these problems • The tools have yet to be implemented for existing experimental communities • Commercial tools are either not available or require significant development and modification (ex CMS) • The DOE facilities and collaboratories present specific examples of problems and communities that can be defined and approached within a reasonable time-frame

  16. Scientific Data Management SystemsCommon Themes • Data mining, effective searching • Provenance, pedigree,versioning, workflow • Schema engineering • design, tools, implementation, evolution, collaboration • Metadata management • source, science schema, workflow, archival, etc. • Linking (multilevel, federated) • data, databases, schemas, systems, etc. • Access • Portals, CMS, security, interfacing, standards • Real-time, reliability, and capacity issues

  17. Cyberinfrastructure & National User Facilities • Information • Coordination • Education • Conferencing • Telepresence • Telecollaboratory

  18. A Challenge: Paying for it all • Facilities can set aside small portion • Common needs for many facilities • Leveraging resources • Sharing resources • Initiatives for common challenges
