[ontolog-forum] Invitation to Feb.9 Expedition Wrkshp on "Leveraging Ser

[susan.turnbull@xxxxxxx]

Greetings!

You and your colleagues are invited to Collaborative Expedition Workshop
#80, " Leveraging
SOA: Advancing Cyberinfrastructure Capabilities for High-Performing Distributed
Communities" on Monday, Feb. 9, 2009.  This no fee, one day public
workshop will explore the emerging cyberinfrastructure landscape for robust,
collaborative organizing, that recognizes the importance of infrastructure
metrics via Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to advance the performance
capacity, reliability, and resilience of advanced networks.  Today
advanced network federation is fundamental to high-performing distributed
communities at national and global levels.
 
By defining and provisioning for a
more granular level of performance measurement and analysis data through
standards-based messaging service frameworks such as perfSONAR, the functioning
of this complex web of network components can be understood by stakeholders
and effectively aligned toward “whole system” evolution from distributed,
autonomous parts.
 
It is likely that how we design our
physical and virtual knowledge sharing environments (including scientific
knowledge to inform policy and advance innovation) will play a pivotal
role in the continued vitality and creativity of our 21st century democracy.
This workshop will open up dialogue to facilitate "bootstrapping"
among multiple communities.  Building on best practices from mature,
distributed science communities, participants will have the opportunity
to learn and contribute to the challenges of scale and complexity that
impact the pace of scientific discovery and innovation and multi-institutional
"virtual organizations" addressing national challenges.

RSVP: You will need to pre-register for this workshop by sending an email
to Joan Cole at expedition@xxxxxxxxx
or 703-292-4873.  Please indicate whether you plan to attend in person
or remotely via teleconference and web collaboration.

WHEN: Monday, February 9, 2009, 9:00am - 12:30pm 

WHERE: National Science Foundation, Ballston, VA, Stafford Building II,
