The Earth Science community is tackling computational problems that tax our largest computational resources. The size of the resulting datasets has been increasing almost exponentially over the last decade. Analysis of this data requires a cross-section of tools to extract useful information. Several international teams are working in concert to generate and analyze this data. A growing number of tools operate through Web services, which are the currently accepted mechanism through which users initiate tasks on one computer and execute them at some remote location. This paper presents a new tool, KWATT, a C++ application that generates web services from Tcl, Python, and Ruby scripts automatically, with minimal user intervention. KWATT parses the scripts and extracts information about procedures and user-defined control statements, embedded as comments. KWATT creates all necessary C++ wrappers, along with the code stubs required by gSOAP, a C++ interface to the SOAP protocol. Initially conceived to translate VTK front-end Tcl scripts into Web Services, the architecture is sufficiently general to accommodate a wide range of input languages. We demonstrate this capability with Tcl, Python and Ruby. Clients receive images through a dedicated socket for efficiency.

Scientific visualization is an ingredient essential to understanding the large amounts of data generated from large-scale numerical simulations, laboratory experiments and geological surveys. Visualization forms an integral component of any complete framework, together with services to handle mathematical and statistical analysis, storage, feature extraction, and other functions. To support rapid and seamless collaborations and communication between researchers across geographically disparate regions necessitates a distributed infrastructure that supports redundancy, fault tolerance, and most importantly, ease of use. We describe herein an architecture based on Naradabrokering, a publish/ subscribe framework that supports the above requirements. We have implemented an initial version of this architecture and describe some initial experiments.

“…For example, users should have the ability to explore their data within a region of interest, and have at their disposal a natural user interface. Recent efforts (GARBOW et al, 2001;GARBOW et al, 2002GARBOW et al, , 2003 have focused on the creation of a web portal that would enable users to interrogate their data sets stored on a remote server. The existing framework promotes user interactivity and portability across wired and wireless networks.…”

Wavelets have a wide range of useful functions that permit them to effectively treat problems such as data compression, scale-localization analysis, feature extraction, visualization, statistics, numerical simulation, and communication. We discuss their features and their use in an integrated manner to handle large-scale problems in earthquake physics and other nonlinear problems in the solid earth geosciences.
