  1. WP3: Infrastructure Web-Based Database Peter McIntosh (STFC, Daresbury Laboratory) TIARA Mid-Term Review Meeting, Madrid, 12 - 14th June 2012. WP3 Infrastructure Database: https://tiara.astec.ac.uk

  2. TIARA Objectives • The main objective of TIARA is the integration of national and international accelerator R&D infrastructures into a single distributed European accelerator R&D facility with the goal of developing and strengthening state-of-the-art research, competitiveness and innovation in a sustainable way in the field of accelerator Science and Technologies in Europe. • Besides maximizing the benefits for the owners of the infrastructures and their users, TIARA aims at establishing a framework for developing and supporting strong joint European programmes: • for accelerator Research andDevelopment, • for Education and Training, • for Enhancing Innovation in collaboration with industry.

  3. WP3 Infrastructure Survey • Organisation • Facility • Infrastructure: • Description • Status • Unique features • Is the infrastructure available for TIARA access? • How to access • Support available • Contact details • Keywords • Key Accelerator Research Area • Key Technical Issues • Costing Model: • Operations staffing level (FTE’s) • Annual operating costs • Costing model employed • Investment cost Defined by WP4 (see P Pierini Talk)

  4. WP4: KARA and Applications

  5. Infrastructure Data Collected • 140 infrastructures surveyed and listed in the D3.1 Infrastructure Survey Report, Annex 2: • https://cdsweb.cern.ch/record/1426607 • In the process of uploading infrastructures: • Austria 1 • Denmark 1 • Finland 1 • France 19 • Germany 13 • Italy 13 • Poland 6 • Slovenia 1 • Spain 8 • Sweden 3 • Switzerland 61 • UK 13 • 85% of ISR survey data currently available in database (13/6/12). • More infrastructures continually identified, which are being added as appropriate.

  9. Database Development Platform • STFC database development team: • Stephen Buckley (STFC, ASTeC) • Joan Berry (STFC, CSE) • Stephen McGill (STFC, ROE) • Database – MS SQL server 2005 database. • Server platforms for both web application and database are Windows 2003 R2 Standard Edition. • Web front end - Internet Information Services 6 (IIS 6 SP2), written in ASP, Javascript and VBScript technologies. • Both packages running on a Windows 2003 server. • Cookies are used throughout the web application and must be enabled on the clients computer. • SSL encryption provision included: • https://tiara.astec.ac.uk

  10. Web-based Database Requirements • Allow TIARA participants to register new test infrastructures for TIARA purposes. • Allow any potential user to interface and interrogate the database to obtain all required information relating to a infrastructure availability. • Processes comprise 4 main functionalities. • Data entry portal: • Prescriptive unambiguous question entry system. • Data storage and manipulation: • Standard SQL processes employed. • Data post processing and interrogation: • Appropriate categorisation, filtering, data export and display. • Data security provision: • Restricted data entry and data encryption. • UID/password for Public and Administrative access.

  12. Infrastructure Inclusion

  13. Infrastructure Details

  14. Costing Information

  15. Save and Submit

  16. Searching Options

  17. Geographical Searching Search Field - FRANCE Data export capability to: Text, CSV and Excel formats

  18. Organisational Searching Search Field – Science & Technology Facility Council

  19. Facility Searching Search Field – SACM

  20. Infrastructure Searching Search Field – Ion Beam Source

  21. Additional Features to be Included • Multiple KARA/KTI input selection: • Demo developed, but needs further testing. • As infrastructure survey initiated before the database development, need to remove remaining data ambiguity: • Introduce additional selection options rather than free text input. • Assimilate infrastructure descriptions to a smaller, more concise set of categories, refinement underway. • Provide a normalised operational & investment cost: • Currency, exchange rate, date to be understood, under review. • Provide infrastructure plotting capability: • Number of infrastructures per Country. • Infrastructure type per Country. • Infrastructures open for access and location. • Infrastructure investment with variety of filters.

  22. Multiple KARA/KTI Input Selection

  23. Summary • 140 accelerator infrastructure profiles/descriptions obtained from 37 Laboratories, Institutes and/or Universities across Europe: • Details presented in D3.1 Infrastructure Survey Report. • More infrastructures being continually identified and included. • Key Accelerator Research Areas (KARA) and Technical Issues (KTI) defined by WP4. • Web-based database developed via WP3 coordination: • Undergoing testing and final stages of iteration. • Accelerator infrastructures being categorised against KARA/KTIs. • Improvements ongoing to refine survey data collected and provide ease of interrogation. • TIARA will use this information to identify infrastructure priorities and deficiencies: • Prioritisation for future FP8 R&D funding.
