Report of the DOE Workshop on Management, Analysis, and Visualization of Experimental and Observational data – The Convergence of Data and Computing
- Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), Berkeley, CA (United States)
The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) operates dozens of national science user facilities that span many different disciplines. These facilities include accelerators, colliders, supercomputers, light sources and neutron sources, as well as facilities for studying the nanoworld, the environment, and the atmosphere. In Fiscal Year 2014 over 33,000 researchers from academia, industry, and government laboratories, spanning all fifty states and the District of Columbia, utilized these unique facilities to perform new scientific research. Each of these facilities generates vast amounts of scientific data, and the rate, size, and complexity of this data is rapidly increasing, thanks to advances in technology. A growing concern, which motivates this workshop, is the likely significant adverse impact on science programs that will result without significant advances in the capabilities needed to manage and gain knowledge from these collections of data. The purpose of this workshop, held 29 September 2015 through 1 October 2015 in Bethesda, MD, is to help the Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) and research community better understand needs related to the management, analysis, and visualization of experimental and observational data (EOD) collected and generated by experimental and observational science projects (EOS) at Office of Science user facilities.
