  2. Table of Contents • Introduction • Definition • Concept • Goals • Current Status • Foreign status • Domestic status • Project Strategy • Project Structure • Overview • e-Science center • e-Science forum • Application project

  3. Definition of e-Science • e-Science is about providing significantly enhanced research infrastructure by utilizing distributed resources such as, computers, storage devices, scientific instruments, and experts using information technology “e-Science is about global collaboration in key areas of science, and the next generation of infrastructure that will enable it.” (John Taylor, Director General of Research Councils, OST/DTI, UK)

  4. Evolution of IT industry • Starting from hardware, forms a vertical structure • New paradigm started by internet boom • Evolves to a horizontal structure

  5. Evolution of Scientific Research • Scientific research methodology also forms a vertical structure • IT industry changes ways of doing research and development, but not its structure

  6. Evolution through e-Science • e-Science is essential for the transition to a horizontal research infrastructure

  7. Goals of e-Science • Advance research infrastructure and national competitiveness by effectively using distributed resources using information technology • Making the best use of Korea’s IT infrastructure • Providing advanced collaborative environments to researchers distributed over the country • Helping the decentralization

  8. e-Science in US (1/6) • The United States is carrying out several e-Science projects in order to maintain her competitiveness in the area of science and technology

  9. e-Science in US (2/6) • Overview • Total budget is over 2 billion dollars • 36% increase over last year • Each agencies are trying to achieve goals presented in ‘IT for the 21st Century’ (NTSC, 1999) • Priority Areas • Enhancing computing capability • Advanced modeling/simulation • Storage, process, and archive of data • Intelligent and networked robot • Protection of information and privacy • Ubiquitous computing and wireless network • Next generation computer • Software reliability • Development of global optical network technology

  10. e-Science in UK (3/6) • Carrying out “UK e-Science Programme” by Department of Trade and Industry • National collaboration network

  11. e-Science in UK (4/6) • Total Budget • 2001 ~ 2006 : Over 200 million pounds • Priority Areas • Construction of national e-Science Grid testbed by connecting regional e-Science centers • Generic/Industrial Grid Middleware • e-Health Grand Challenge • IRC(Interdisciplinary Research Collaboration) projects • Pilot projects

  12. e-Science in Japan (5/6) • AIST is the key organization, reviewed by CSTP and IT committee • National collaborative network

  13. e-Science in Japan (6/6) • Virtual research laboratory of ITBL • Budget : 160 Mil. USD (ITBL, 2001~2005) • Participating Organizations : JAERI, JST, NIMS, NAL, RIKEN, NIED, NII

  14. Domestic Situation • Construction of Grid infrastructure is being constructed through “National Grid Project” of Ministry of Information and Communication • Limited to the construction of next generation internet • Support for application projects are limited, only small scale projects are supported • National scale application projects are not possible • Sharing and remote use of expensive equipments in government labs and academic institutions are very limited

  15. Project Strategy (1/5) • Construct national scale organization including ministries (MOST, MIC, and MOCIE), academia, and government labs • MIC: Advanced network, Grid infrastructure • MOST: e-Science research based on the infrastructure • MOCIE: Application of the research results to industries such as e-Business • Academia, government labs: Carrying out e-Science researches • National and regional e-Science center • National e-Science forum

  16. Project Strategy (2/5)

  17. Project Strategy (3/5)

  18. Project Strategy (4/5)

  19. Project Strategy (5/5) Grid vs e-Science • Grid • IT infrastructure for using distributed resources • Technology Push • e-Science • New paradigm for scientific research • Application Pull • e-Science, e-Business are customized contents on Grid

  20. Project Structure (1/3) • e-Science Center • Operation • Core software technology • Hardware implementation • e-Science Application Projects • Full scale application projects • Individual application projects • Pilot application projects • e-Science Forum

  21. Project Structure (2/3) (100 Million Won)

  22. e-Science office (20 people) eDIKT Team Leaders (Dr.Virdee & Rutherford) R&D personnel : 10 UK e-Science Center • eDIKT Team (12 people) • e-Science core technology research • Planning, administration, event coordination: 10 people) • Total: 32 people

  23. e-Science Forum • Close collaborations between IT experts and application researchers are necessary for the realization of e-Science • Forum is necessary for experts from different areas to discuss their common interests • Primary Activities • Construction and support of working groups • Hold workshops • Collaboration and cooperation with other related organizations • Exchange of information on new e-Science technology • Support of new e-Science projects

  24. Application Projects (1/2) • National scale projects • Individual projects • Pilot projects

  25. Application Projects (2/2)
