Information technology and high-performance computing play a critical role in the development of virtual organizations for science and engineering disciplines. In this paper, we report on our efforts to design and develop pharmaHUB.org, a prototype virtual organization that intends to promote the joint creation and sharing of tools, knowledge, and educational materials across the various science and engineering disciplines related to pharmaceutical product development and manufacturing. pharmaHUB has been brought online using middleware from HUBzero which provides content management and community building capabilities and also makes it possible to deliver simulation tools through the web. By leveraging the HUBzero middleware and forming partnerships with existing communities of researchers, it has been possible to rapidly develop a prototype virtual organization with a significant offering of educational and simulation tool resources. Prototype tools to support the knowledge management needs of pharmaceutical development have also been integrated into the hub environment.
