The computational landscape has never so fast evolved like in the last decade. Computational scientific methods tackle an increasing breadth and diversity of topics – analyzing data on a large scale and accessing high-performance computing infrastructures, cutting-edge hardware and instruments. Novel technologies such as next-gen sequencing or the Square Kilometre Array telescope, the world largest radio telescope, have evolved, which allow creating data in exascale dimension. While the availability of this data salvage to find answers for research questions, which would not have been feasible before, the amount of data creates new challenges, which obviously need novel computational solutions. Such novel solutions require integrative approaches for multidisciplinary teams across geographical boundaries, which improve usability of scientific methods tailored to the target user communities and aim at achieving reproducibility of science. The goal of science gateways, also called virtual research environments or virtual laboratories, are following exactly this goal to provide an easy-to-use end-to-end solution hiding the complex underlying infrastructure. They support researchers with intuitive user interfaces to focus on their research question instead of becoming acquainted with technological details. Science gateways are often developed by research teams, who are not necessarily in the computer science domain and science projects depend on academic funding. Centralized research programmer teams, who can provide broad experience and contribute to sustainability of solutions, are rather rare at universities and there is still a lack of incentives for interested developers to stay in academia. One of the future challenges for science gateways and thus for computational scientific methods will be to increase the sustainability and getting less dependent on successful proposals. The US National Science Foundation has recognized the importance of this topic for research and has funded the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) to support not only teams in developing science gateways but also to help communities to find a way to sustain their favorite science gateway for conducting their research. This talk will go into detail for current challenges, the landscape around science gateways, the services of SGCI and approaches to reach sustainability.

Mentoring the Next Generation of Science Gateway Developers and Users

Jeff Wood

The Science Gateway Institute (SGW-I) for the Democratization and Acceleration of Science was a SI2-SSE Collaborative Research conceptualization award funded by NSF in 2012. From 2012 through 2015, we engaged interested members of the science and engineering community in a planning process for a Science Gateway Community Institute (SGCI). Science Gateways provide Web interfaces to some of the most sophisticated cyberinfrastructure resources. They interact with remotely executing science applications on supercomputers, they connect to remote scientific data collections, instruments and sensor streams, and support large collaborations. Gateways allow scientists to concentrate on the most challenging science problems while underlying components such as computing architectures and interfaces to data collection changes. The goal of our institute was to provide coordinating activities across the National Science Foundation, eventually providing services more broadly to projects funded by other agencies.

SGCI - The Science Gateways Community Institute: Going Beyond Borders

Sandra Gesing

The Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI), opened in August 2016, provides free resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways. It offers five areas of services to the science gateway developer and user communities: the Incubator, Extended Developer Support, the Scientific Software Collaborative, Community Engagement and Exchange, and Workforce Development. While all these areas are available to US-based communities, the Incubator, the Scientific Software Collaborative and the Community Engagement and Exchange serve also the international communities. We aim at reaching out and supporting beyond borders on international scale with diverse measures and our intent is to form and deepen collaborations with partner organizations and coalitions beneficial and/or related to the science gateways community. Research topics are independent of national borders and researchers spread worldwide can benefit from each other’s research results, software, data and from lessons learned — via online materials and publications or at international events. The gateway community has long benefitted from this type of exchange. This paper will present related work describing the benefits of international collaborations generally, and specifically as they relate to science gateways. We go into detail regarding SGCI’s ongoing work on international scale and its work planned in the near future.

SGCI - URSSI - Research Software Engineers, Science Gateway Developers and Cy...

Sandra Gesing

The conceptualization of the US Research Software Sustainability Institute (URSSI) just received funding in December 2017 and aims at building the focal point for RSEs in the US similar to SSI in the UK. The Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI), opened in August 2016, provides free resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways on national and international level. Science gateways – also called virtual research environments or virtual labs – allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, instruments, and other resources specific to their disciplines and use them also in teaching environments. Especially the goals of the workforce development and incubator services have a broad overlap with RSE initiatives to improve career paths of developers and building on-campus developer teams. ACI-REFs (Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Research and Education Facilitators) is a synonym for RSEs and the goal of the project and the trainings aims also at building a network and training the trainers for efficient research software support. The talk will give an overview on the diverse initiatives and highlights the international collaboration possibilities.

The e-Ciber Superfacility Project

Leandro Ciuffo

To foster greater and more consistent use of the new 100 Gbps connections that is being deployed in the national RNP backbone, the e-Cyber project aims at delivering high-performing services to the most infrastructure-demanding research centers in Brazil. To do this, the project is getting inspired by the “superfacility” concept, which is adopted by initiatives like GRP (Global Research Platform) and EOSC (European Open Science Cloud). However, one of our biggest challenges is to engage the client institutions and bring them to co-create solutions and participate in the project governance.
