  1. Overview of PRAGMA View to the FutureExamples of Team Science and Global Engagement in Asia Pacific and South Asia Peter Arzberger Philip Papadopoulos Mason Katz Cindy Zheng Enhancing Research and Education Connectivity to and within South Asia 26 April 2007 Spring Internet2 Meeting

  2. Some Perspectives: Do they apply to you? Spread of Infectious Diseases Health of Oceans Health of Coral Reefs Impacts of Global Warming Role of Lakes in Carbon Cycling • “…The conduct of science, intrinsically global, has become increasingly important to addressing critical global issues….” [NSB 2000] • “ It is imperative that the ACP [Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Program] interoperate with cyberinfrastructure being developed and deployed in other countries.” [Atkins et.al. 2003 ] • “What nations don’t know can hurt them. The stakes involved in study abroad are that simple, that straightforward, and that important. … college graduates today must be internationally competent.” [Lincoln Report 2005] Avoid Replay of Cluster Divergence Grids Support Global Science Tools Developed Across Globe People Make Collaborations Delivered by Philip Papadopoulos, NSF Global Engagement Workshop

  8. PRAGMA Testbed ran CSIRO climate model called CCAM in combination with Nimrod/G tool set. Executed on a maximum of 90 processors (out of a maximum 159) across 7 PRAGMA grid resources located in Australia, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and the U.S. David Abramson, Amanda Lynch Savannah Burn:How tightly linked are burning, vegetation, and rainfall?

  9. Validation of Cyberinfrastructure Investmentsby the Savannah Burn experiment • Science Resulted: The hypothesis that burning the Savannah can affect the strength and timing of the monsoon was confirmed. • Testbed Exercised: The testbed operated for 170 days, and delivered over 1.25 million processor hours! Importantly, we were able to do a live upgrade of a number of the cyberinfrastructure components during the period. • Middleware Improved: Improved Nimrod's ability to schedule computations by incorporating both data location and transport delays. • Allowing it to make a better choice of resources, improving the performance of the system as well as its fault tolerance. • We also enhanced Nimrod's ability to handle faults in the Grid testbed. • Policy Impacted: The experiment shipped some 1.6TB of data across national and international networks. This exposed some interesting features of Australia’s network charging policy, and will lead to lasting improvements.

  17. Collaboration in Environmental ScienceGlobal Lake Ecological Observatory Network • A grassroots network of • People: lake scientists, engineers, information technology experts • Institutions: universities, national laboratories, agencies • Programs: PRAGMA, AS-Forest Biogeochemistry,US-LTER, TERN, KING, EcoGrid, etc. • Instruments • Data • Linked by a common purpose and cyberinfrastructure • With a goal of understanding lake dynamics at local, regional, continental, and global scales

  18. 15 GLEON People & GroupsTEAM SCIENCE MEETINGS San DiegoMarch 05Townsville March 06 Hsinchu October 06 Lammi March 07 Montreal August 07 GLEON Existing sites = yellow New sites (RCN) = red • Research Coordination Network (NSF award, PI: P Hanson): • Includes a series of key science questions • Architectural design of coordinated global sensor network • Broaden involvement at all levels; new partners, outreach • and education

  19. Lessons Learned in Building e-Communities • Repeated structured interactions (workshops) to build the community • More often at first, twice/year now • Unstructured/Spontaneous interactions. It was several years before these started • Group focuses on enabling science outcomes • Technology builders give tutorials on capabilities • Science + Technologists work side-by-side • Infrastructure/Requirements evolves naturally • Not “Build it and they will come” • Not “Gather requirements, Get stakeholder Buy In” • Culture of openness and sharing of know-how and software • Continue to experiment: Applications, Technologies, Meetings (structure, types), People (and students) • Baby steps; and more baby steps (Learn by doing) • Break bread together • Stay PRAGMAtic

  20. Every Presentation Is an Invitation to Collaboration:Some Ideas • Involvement in PRAGMA Grid or other activities • Biosciences - Avian Flu; Metagenomics • Geosciences • GLEON (or CREON) • Telesciences and Tile Display Walls – NEEDS NETWORKING • PRAGMA Institute for South Asia • NCHC (Taiwan) has annual workshop for Southeast Asia • U of Hyderabad is willing to host a PRAGMA Institute for this region! • Exchange students and researchers • PRIME / PRIUS • Participation in PRAGMA Workshops • Two times per year

  26. A Final Thought • “Peace and prosperity around the world depend on increasing the capacity of people to think and work on a global and intercultural basis. As technology opens borders, educational and professional exchange opens minds.”[i] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lY6x0S3IoA Google: PRIME students youtube [i] Annual Report IIE 2005, and http://www.iie.org/ “About”
