National Science FoundationOD/OCIProposal Number: 0721680Principal investigator: Michael J. McLennanInstitution: Purdue UniversityProposal Title: SDCI NMI Improvement: nanoHUB MiddlewareProject Summary This proposal calls for improvements to the software system known as nanoHUB, a cyberinfrastructure for the nano technology research community. This project will add two new software components that expand the Rappture toolkit to support experiment design, visualization and code development, and additions for monitoring and management of virtual clusters using Violin. The resulting generalized system will be packaged for open source deployment for use in other settings beyond the NCN environment. The intellectual merit includes an intuitive form of user interaction enabled by nanoHUB that optimizes ease of use and flexibility. The modular design should result in nanoHUB tools that are easy to integrate with other CI components such as workflow systems. Broad impact has several facets: the nanoHUB user community already numbers in the thousands, and this proposed work will broaden the user base and provide their users more capabilities; the HUB in a box is a direct effort at generalizing these technologies beyond the nano community.

国家科学基金会OD/OCI提案编号：0721680首席研究员：Michael J. McLennan机构：普渡大学提案标题：SDCI NMI改进：nanoHUB中间件项目摘要该提案要求改进称为nanoHUB的软件系统，nanoHUB是纳米技术研究社区的网络基础设施。该项目将增加两个新的软件组件，扩展Rappture工具包，以支持实验设计，可视化和代码开发，并增加使用Violin监控和管理虚拟集群的功能。由此产生的通用系统将被打包用于开源部署，以用于NCN环境以外的其他设置。其智力优势包括nanoHUB支持的直观形式的用户交互，优化了易用性和灵活性。模块化设计应导致nanoHUB工具易于与其他CI组件（如工作流系统）集成。广泛的影响有几个方面：nanoHUB用户社区已经有数千人，这项拟议的工作将扩大用户群，并为用户提供更多的功能; HUB in a box是将这些技术推广到纳米社区之外的直接努力。
