The Extensible Terascale Facility (ETF) is developing and deploying the nations largest unified computational infrastructure. The goal of the ETF is to provide scientists with the most powerful, integrated computational resource possible, While ETF resources are geographically dispersed, they represent the integrated capability of nine different sites. The resources integrated by ETF include compute resources, storage, data collections, instruments, and visualization tools. Users of the ETF will experience the ETF as a single utility that is not only accessible from anywhere, but will also run jobs from anywhere. The ETF will work towards building a common framework for expansion and robust reliable operation. Additional sites will be invited to join the ETF and will do so by embracing the common software infrastructure that makes ETF more than a loosely coupled system of HPC site. The common infrastructure is at the heart of the ETF and brings the grid concept to fruition with features such as single login, single allocation currency, single programming environment, single helpdesk, single queuing system but heterogeneous and dispersed resources. Purdue University as a Resource Provider will make available to the ETF, 1,000,000 SUs through its IBM SP and Linux clusters. This commitment is expected to increase by 10% each year. Purdue will also make available and maintain several dataset collections in remote sensing, climate modeling, and bioinformatics. Purdue will also work with other RP sites to develop a data collection framework that will facilitate metadata publishing and searching as well as post-processing of large datasets. Finally, Purdue will engage scientific users through science gateways, especially the computational nanotechnology community through the NSF Network for Computational Nanotechnology (NCN) and the remote sensing community through the Purdue Terrestrial Observatory (PTO). With two science partners representing major national and international research communities, Purdue will stimulate the use of TeraGrid resources to explore and extend the frontiers of key scientific disciplines. Our goal and the ultimate measure of our success will be establishing science gateways used by hundreds of scientists in each of these disciplines

可扩展的Terascale设施（ETF）正在开发和部署国家最大的统一计算基础设施。 ETF的目的是为科学家提供最强大，最集成的计算资源，而在地理上分散了ETF资源，它们代表了九个不同站点的综合功能。 ETF集成的资源包括计算资源，存储，数据收集，工具和可视化工具。 ETF的用户将体验ETF作为单个实用程序，不仅可以从任何地方访问，而且还可以从任何地方运行作业。 ETF将致力于建立扩展和可靠的可靠操作的共同框架。将邀请其他站点加入ETF，并通过采用常见的软件基础架构，这使ETF不仅仅是HPC站点的松散耦合系统。常见的基础架构是ETF的核心，并将网格概念带入了单登录，单个分配货币，单个编程环境，单个帮助台，单队排队系统，但异质和分散资源等功能。普渡大学作为资源提供商将通过其IBM SP和Linux群集提供1,000,000 SUS的ETF。 预计每年这一承诺将增加10％。普渡大学还将在遥感，气候建模和生物信息学中提供几个数据集收集。普渡大学还将与其他RP站点一起开发数据收集框架，该框架将促进元数据出版和搜索以及大型数据集的后处理。最后，普渡大学将通过科学网关，尤其是通过NSF计算纳米技术（NCN）（NCN）和遥感社区的计算纳米技术社区与科学用户吸引。 普渡大学将拥有代表主要国家和国际研究社区的两个科学伙伴，将刺激使用Teragrid资源来探索和扩展关键科学学科的前沿。我们的目标和成功的最终度量将是建立数百名科学家在这些学科中使用的科学网关
