“…Mathematical software libraries were introduced in the 1960s both to promote software reuse and as a means of transferring numerical analysis and algorithmic expertise to practitioners. Many successful libraries have since been developed, resulting in a variety of commercial products, as well as public repositories of reusable components such as netlib and the Guide to Available Mathematical Software [1].…”

The rapid and widespread adoption of Java has created a demand for reliable and reusable mathematical software components to support the growing number of computationally intensive applications now under development, particularly in science and engineering. In this paper we address practical issues of the Java language and environment which have an effect on numerical library design and development. Benchmarks which illustrate the current levels of performance of key numerical kernels on a variety of Java platforms are presented. Finally, a strategy for the development of a fundamental numerical toolkit for Java is proposed and its current status is described.

“…In addition, the scientific community that studies climate change has set up a network of data centers for topics ranging from biodiversity to glaciology (http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/wdc/list.shtml). Besides data sets, there are a number of national software repositories for scientific computing codes [22]. Finally, Amazon provides a number of preconfigured virtual machine images for use on their cloud.…”

In this paper we propose a new provenance model which is tailored to a class of workflow-based applications. We motivate the approach with use cases from the astronomy community. We generalize the class of applications the approach is relevant to and propose a pipeline-centric provenance model. Finally, we evaluate the benefits in terms of storage needed by the approach when applied to an astronomy application. General TermsDocumentation, Performance

“…The concept of a repository for storing data is well developed in a range of fields, including the creation of digital libraries [58,59], education [60,61] and software development [62,63]. As product design becomes increasingly a global enterprise, the need for networked, collaborative tools to support design innovation has become more pronounced.…”

Without a doubt, the current generation of secondary school students is very familiar with information technology. Text messaging, e-mail, and social networking websites are a normal means of communication. There is also increasing recognition of the need for diversification the engineering workforce and increasing the number of graduating engineers in the United States. This has created an opportunity to leverage leading edge Cyberinfrastructure in an outreach program targeting secondary school students. This paper demonstrates the implementation of a targeted outreach program that engages high school students in engineering design over a two-week period using state-of-the-art digital design repositories and motion simulation equipment.
