  1. Grid-enabling the Australian Synchrotron 24 February 2005

  2. Project Program • Phase 1 (to end January 2005) • Specification of grid requirements • Consultations with scientists • Preparation of discussion paper • Phase 2 (to end February 2005) • Circulation of discussion paper • Consolidation of comments and research • Preparation of draft project proposal • Phase 3 (to end March 2005) • Circulate draft project proposal (by 11 March 2005) • Consult with key stakeholders • Conduct forum with key scientists and stakeholders • Prepare final project report (by 25 March 2005)

  3. Key Issues • Data security • Data management • Data linking • Data manipulation and visualisation • Security, authentication, audit trails • Telepresence • Remote operations • Production class facilities • Virtual organisation management

  4. Responses to Discussion Paper • Generally supportive of discussion paper context • Reinforced data security as key issue • Reinforced the need to link related data (experiment, beamline, etc) • Noted not many examples worldwide, although similar to Diamond • Network security and reliability issues are important • Remote access and telepresence are key facilitating needs

  5. Project Scope • National Data Structure • primary, backup, archive • Regional nodes as ‘virtual instruments’ • Secure Data Network • Data Grid • Semantic Grid

  6. Virtual Laboratory Primary Storage Secondary Storage Institutional Storage Backup Storage Archive Storage Virtual Laboratory Institutional Storage Secondary Storage Archive Storage Primary Storage Backup Storage National Data Architecture

  9. Data and Semantic Grid Development • Coordinated research and development programme • Integration with international activities • Involvement of formal and informal networks of scientists • Phased approach: • Phase1: Quick runs using available technologies with key metadata to facilitate later stages • Phase 2: Provide support tools and services for data management • Phase 3: Develop technologies/techniques for semantic grid.

  10. Project Costs • Data Centre - Capital: $5M, Operating: $2M/a • Regional ‘virtual’ nodes: (each) Capital: $0.5M, Operating $0.3m/a • Data Grid and Semantic Grid Research and Development: $3M • Network and other costs: $1M • excludes building costs

  11. Project Timelines

  12. Operational Structure • Formal project management structure and processes • Formalise operational management of data
