The workshop will bring together Principle Investigators of the leading software cyberinfrastructure projects and discuss issues relevant to the community as we move into the future. In 2011 and 2012 the OCI Software Infrastructure for Sustained Innovation (SI2) program funded software efforts in small development efforts that can provide software pieces that can be integrated into the larger cyberinfrastructure, and larger collaborations that were delivering significant community software. In addition, new SI2 awards aimed at conceptualizing large-scale software institutes, aimed at providing a fabric for the software needed by domain scientists to achieve breakthroughs in their intra and inter-disciplinary efforts, will be awarded. New NSF initiatives such as EarthCube are defining roadmaps for cyberinfrastructure development in Earth sciences. This workshop will bring together the Principle Investigators of the recent SI2 awards to discuss potential synergies and collaborations, define challenges ahead, discuss the relationship of the SI2 efforts to the planned Software Institutes, and explore the relationship of the OCI-funded software in the context of the broad NSF initiatives such as EarthCube, DataWay, and other planned community-focused efforts.To achieve its goals, the workshop will focus on these main themes: (i) Discussing SI2 projects within the context of SI2 Institutes and NSF-wide initiative such as EarthCube, DataWay, and others; (ii) sharing experiences in building quality software and services; (iii) fostering collaboration and providing incentives for collaboration and cyberinfrastructure development as a career; and (iv) sustaining the software capabilities in the long term, defining software value.The workshop will solicit participation from major science and engineering projects that rely on the national cyberinfrastructure for their computations and data management needs. Their participation will help ensure that the cyberinfrastructure software developed as part of SI2 projects will be relevant and broadly applicable to a number of science and engineering domains. The results of this workshop will then potentially guide cyberinfrastructure development and testing in the future.

研讨会将汇集领先的软件网络基础设施项目的主要研究人员，并讨论与社区相关的问题，因为我们走向未来。 2011年和2012年，OCI软件基础设施持续创新（SI 2）计划资助了小型开发工作中的软件工作，这些工作可以提供可以集成到更大的网络基础设施中的软件，以及提供重要社区软件的更大合作。此外，还将颁发新的SI 2奖项，旨在概念化大型软件研究所，旨在为领域科学家在学科内和跨学科工作中实现突破所需的软件提供结构。美国国家科学基金会的新举措，如EarthCube，正在确定地球科学网络基础设施发展的路线图。本次研讨会将汇集最近的SI 2奖项的主要研究者，讨论潜在的协同作用和合作，确定未来的挑战，讨论SI 2工作与计划中的软件研究所的关系，并探讨OCI资助的软件在广泛的NSF倡议背景下的关系，如EarthCube，DataWay和其他计划中的社区重点工作。研讨会将集中讨论以下主题：（i）在SI 2研究所和NSF范围内的倡议（如EarthCube、DataWay等）的背景下讨论SI 2项目;（ii）分享构建高质量软件和服务的经验;（iii）促进合作，并为合作和网络基础设施发展提供激励;以及（iv）长期维持软件能力，界定软件价值。研讨会将邀请依赖国家网络基础设施满足其计算和数据管理需求的重大科学和工程项目参加。他们的参与将有助于确保作为SI 2项目一部分开发的网络基础设施软件将与许多科学和工程领域相关并广泛适用。这次研讨会的结果将有可能指导未来的网络基础设施开发和测试。
