“…According to [15,16], a Science Gateway is a "community-development set of tools, applications, and data that is integrated via a portal or a suite of applications, usually in a graphical user interface, that is further customized to meet the needs of a specific community". Science Gateways are playing an important role in scientific research performed using e-Infrastructures and their relevance will further increase with the development of more sophisticated user interfaces and easier access mechanisms.…”

Grid infrastructures allow users to access and use computational and storage facilities distributed in different locations around the world. Science Gateways (SG) are recently emerging as high-level web environments that ease Grid access and use. However, although SGs simplify job management, providing a web interface by which jobs can be submitted with a few "clicks", their capabilities to do an effective and intuitive data management are still at an early stage. Actually, Grid storage elements use dedicated protocols not supported by common applications such as web browsers. This makes a smooth integration of data management services in a Science Gateway quite difficult. In this work we show the Data Engine, a new SG component providing users with the ability to move data to storage elements and share them in an easy and clever way. The component operates between the Grid storage and the user, providing a file-system-like experience.

Understanding the evolutionary history of living organisms is a central problem in biology. Until recently the ability to infer evolutionary relationships was limited by the amount of DNA sequence data available, but new DNA sequencing technologies have largely removed this limitation. As a result, DNA sequence data are readily available or obtainable for a wide spectrum of organisms, thus creating an unprecedented opportunity to explore evolutionary relationships broadly and deeply across the Tree of Life. Unfortunately, the algorithms used to infer evolutionary relationships are NP-hard, so the dramatic increase in available DNA sequence data has created a commensurate increase in the need for access to powerful computational resources. Local laptop or desktop machines are no longer viable for analysis of the larger data sets available today, and progress in the field relies upon access to large, scalable high-performance computing resources. This paper describes development of the CIPRES Science Gateway, a web portal designed to provide researchers with transparent access to the fastest available community codes for inference of phylogenetic relationships, and implementation of these codes on scalable computational resources. Meeting the needs of the community has included developing infrastructure to provide access, working with the community to improve existing community codes, developing infrastructure to insure the portal is scalable to the entire systematics community, and adopting strategies that make the project sustainable by the community. The CIPRES Science Gateway has allowed more than 1800 unique users to run jobs that required 2.5 million Service Units since its release in December 2009. (A Service Unit is a CPUhour at unit priority).
