  1. UC Santa Cruz Center For Information Technology ResearchIn The Interest Of SocietyA Partnership for California’s Future University • Industry • Government R. H. Katz, Interim Director J. Demmel, Chief Scientist

  2. Welcome

  3. CITRIS Overview Agenda • Center Vision • Management Philosophy and Organization • CITRIS Research Facilities • Structure of the Day • Summary and Conclusions

  4. Technology Invention in a Social Context: Quality of Life Impact • Energy Efficiency • Transportation Planning • Monitoring Health Care

  5. Technology Invention in a Social Context: Quality of Life Impact • Education • Land and Environment • Disaster Response

  6. Societal-Scale Applications Beyond desktop Huge scale Can’t fail Applications Pull New Distributed System Architectures Scalable, Utility, Diverse Access Always connected Distributed intelligence Smart displays, cameras, sensors Technology Push Technological Breakthroughs CITRIS Scientific Vision Societal-Scale Applications Societal-Scale Applications

  7. Massive Cluster Clusters Gigabit Ethernet “Server” Scalable, Reliable, Secure Services “Client” Information Appliances MEMS BioMonitoring Societal-Scale Systems New System Architectures New Enabled Applications Diverse, Connected, Physical, Virtual, Fluid

  8. Societal-Scale Information System (SIS) • Information Utility • Planetary-scale/non-stop; secure, reliable, high-performance access, even when overloaded, down, disconnected, under repair, under attack • Smart System • Learns usage/adapts functions & interfaces • Managing Diversity • Component plug-and-play; integrate sensors / actuators, hand-held appliances, workstations, building-sized cluster supercomputers • Always Connected • Short-range wireless nets to high-bandwidth, high-latency long-haul optical backbones

  9. Industrial Support “I believe we are now entering the Renaissance phase of the Information Age, where creativity and ideas are the new currency, and invention is a primary virtue, where technology truly has the power to transform lives, not just businesses, where technology can help us solve fundamental problems.” Carly Fiorina, CEO, Hewlett Packard Corporation Founding Corporate Members of CITRIS

  10. CITRIS Principles for Investigators and Sponsors • Bottom-up Institute: portfolio ofevolving multi-investigator, inter-disciplinary, and/or intercampus Collaborative Research Projects: Core and Affiliated • Faculty affiliation through CITRIS CRPs • Subsidized access to research infrastructure & opportunity “seed” funds • Industrial sponsors, in consultation with Director, direct funding to specific projects • Industrial sponsors retain relationships with faculty investigators and project teams • Open intellectual property framework

  11. Increasing the Pie Larger-Scale, Higher Impact Research Increasing the Competitive Edge Subsidized Access Space Resources Incentives for Research & Collaboration Better Public Relations Better Admin Support True Engagement Commitment to Teamwork Commitment to Excellence Acknowledging CITRIS Achieving the State Match CITRIS Benefits and Obligations
