A Unified Grid Programming Methodology for Global e-Science

这个项目将在三个重要方面为国家利益作出贡献。首先，我们将在国家重点领域建立一套新的电子科学应用作为示范项目。这将在从环境管理到卫生等领域产生巨大的经济影响。其次，我们将构建具有商业和战略价值的软件基础设施。第三，我们将建立起连接物理科学和计算机科学的专业知识的临界质量。为这项建议提供的支持将使多学科团队能够解决大规模的科学问题。

This project will contribute to the national benefit in three important ways. First, we will build a set of novel e-Science applications as demonstrator projects in areas of national priority. These will have enormous economic impact in areas ranging from environmental management to health. Second, we will build software infrastructure that will have both commercial and strategic value in its own right. Third, we shall build a critical mass of expertise that bridges the physical sciences and computer science. The support provided to this proposal will allow multi-disciplinary teams to address scientific problems of significant scale.
