2. Toward High Breakthrough Collaboration (HBC) Organizing for Discovery Science at the Extremes: Exploring Roles and Relationships Toward Federated Services and Infrastructures

3. Toward High Breakthrough Collaboration (HBC) Create conducive conditions for evolving Distributed Science Communities Need to Know -> Need to Share -> Build to Share To be Informed (not Overwhelmed) –by the Combined Complexity of our multiple forms of Expertise Agile Framework for Building Federated Services and Infrastructures Open Collaboration, Open Standards. Open Architecture, Open Source

4. Toward High Breakthrough Collaboration (HBC) 1. Create environment to appreciate the whole picture – transcend insularity 2. Engage in sustained dialogue –opportunities to dialogue and exchange views on emerging issues, enabling trust and mutual sense of purpose to meet future challenges together 3. Find common ground and shared understanding - across non-aligned processes, leverage assets of frontier communities

SciDAC Projects Review Criteria & Models Panel Reviews with External Experts Partnerships Projects –with Partner Offices Criteria – as agreed with SciDAC Partners –Technical & Scientific Merit –Performance & Progress –Management/Operations/Collaborations/personnel/budgets SciDAC Criteria –Create comprehensive, scientific computing software infrastructure to enable scientific discovery in the physical, biological, and environmental sciences at the petascale. –Develop new generation of data management and knowledge discovery tools for large data sets (obtained from scientific user facilities and from simulations).

7. Next-Generation Networks Program Terabit Networks for Petascale Science The next-generation networks program supports R&D&D for advanced networked infrastructures that enable distributed high-end science Program elements: Network research – core network research Middleware research – grid technologies, federated services and infrastructure, virtualization The program coordinates with ESnet Next-generation network technologies have enabled the efficient and rapid distribution of massive data generated by the LHC experiment and climate modeling Major activities in FY09: Network research program announcement
