Simplifying access to and usage of large scale compute resources via the grid is of critical importance to encourage the uptake of e-research. Security is one aspect that needs to be made as simple as possible for end users. The ESP-Grid and DyVOSE projects at the National e-Science Centre (NeSC) at the University of Glasgow are investigating security technologies which will make the end-user experience of using the grid easier and more secure. In this paper, we outline how simplified ...

Description:
The ARION system provides basic e-services of search and retrieval of objects in scientific collections, such as, data sets, simulation models and tools necessary for statistical and/or visualization processing. These collections may represent application software of scientific areas, they reside in geographically disperse organizations and constitute the system content. The user as part of the retrieval mechanism may dynamically invoke on-line computations of scientific data ...

e-Science offers a promising vision of how computer and communication technology can support and enhance the scientific process. It does this by enabling scientists to generate, analyse, share and discuss their insights, experiments and results in a more effective manner. The underlying computer infrastructure that provides these facilities is commonly referred to as the Grid. At this time, there are a number of grid applications being developed and there is a whole raft of computer ...

This website provides information about the series of e-science workshops run in November 2006 by the Visualisation Research Unit at the Institute of Art and Design at UCE (University of Central England) Birmingham. The workshops were held as part of a national scheme in the arts and humanities to improve understanding of e-science technologies and encourage their application in research practice and the wider arts community. Attendees were introduced to the broad sweep of e-science ...

Many production e-Science infrastructures (e.g. DEISA, D-Grid) have begun to offer a wide variety of services for end-users during the past several years. Many e-Scientists solve their scienti c problems by using parallel computing applications on clusters and collaborative online visualization and steering (COVS) is known as a tool for analyzing and better understanding of these applications. In absence of a widely accepted COVS framework within Grids, visualizations are often ...

Description:
We develop a general ontology of science knowledge for use in e-Science Knowledge Infrastructures (SKIo), to advance use of digitally represented scientific theories in these environments. SKIo extends the DOLCE foundational ontology with science knowledge primitives, such as science theories, models, and data. These are arranged to reflect the complex knowledge structures used in science, such as scientific ideas playing different roles within and between theories. SKIo is illustrated ...

Description:
Advances in agricultural research have resulted in massive increases in the volume and variety of available data. In particular, the complexity of biological information necessitates powerful bioinformatics computational resources both at the level of storage and analysis of data. Moreover, the heterogeneous bioinformatics-related knowledge of scientists involved in agricultural research makes it fundamental to provide an in-situ training program dedicated to the most utilized ...
