Programs of scientific research, like other formally organized collective practices, meet the materiality of the world in complex and dynamic ways. This intersection has important and under explored consequences for the planning and practice of distributed scientific collaboration, including programs of large-scale infrastructure development currently underway across a range of scientific fields and...
On the emerging ??Social Web,?? millions of people offer their knowledge online in a collective knowledge system comprising an active community of motivated members posting problems and solutions in blogs, forums, mailing lists, collaborative portals and other Web 2.0 technologies. These technologies complement formal means of sharing knowledge via conferences and published papers, where it is impossible...
We explore the status, challenges and opportunities in providing a resource center focused on large scale data management on the EGEE grid, in the context of the emerging Spanish e-science network. The application to bulky and relatively flat datasets in high energy physics is mature and in daily production. Transferring this methodology to other application fields is still ongoing, posing challenges...
Using the NeuroGrid project as a case study, this paper explores the experiences and challenges in collaboratively developing technology and in the use of collaborative technology to enhance the science for the diverse scientific community of neuroscience. It explores methodologies adopted for ensuring continual engagement with a disparate clinical and technical community, the methods used for communication...
The three-year UK NeuroGrid project aims to develop a grid-based collaborative research environment to support the data and compute needs for a UK Neurosciences community. This paper describes the challenges in developing this architecture and details initial results from the development of its first prototype to support psychosis, dementia and stroke research and the social challenges of such a collaborative...
