Abstract
Creating an environment to enable the seamless integration of experiment, computation, and data within a laboratory environment is essential to enabling the practice of Integrated Computational Materials Engineering. Such an environment depends on the connection of experimental equipment and high performance computing resources to a collaborative software environment that supports research teams through simulation tool sharing and archival data management in a secure manner. Key functions of such a system include project management, workflow management, tool staging, data provenance tracking, and user authentication. An overview will be provided on efforts to establish such an integrated collaborative environment in a research laboratory involved in material and process discovery and development in both structural and functional materials.
