Summer Southwest Regional Cyberinfrastructure Workshop: Request for Event Funds

德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索夏季西南地区网络基础设施研讨会基金会被要求在2007年8月至9月期间举办一次研讨会，参加者约为25至30人(2名特邀讲师、2名当地讲师、5名地区科学家、9名当地科学家)和10名学生。申请包括规划、食物、旅行和评估支助的资金。讲习班的目标是：促进人们对CI在开展研究和研究中的作用的认识。让科学家了解如何使用工具支持基于CI的任务。研讨会的预期成果将是：报告对研讨会的评估、参与者的经验和反应、科学家在使用开普勒和WDO-it支持网络基础设施任务时的需求和困难。在举办包括更广泛受众的更广泛研讨会方面的经验(例如，与地球科学暑期研究所协调)。所资助的活动将包括评估和评估，以审查UTEP的WDO it工具的可用性、生成的抽象工作流程的质量以及研讨会的价值。

OCI 0741388Gates, Ann Q. University of Texas at El PasoSummer Southwest Regional Cyberinfrastructure WorkshopFunds are requested to hold one workshop during the August to September 2007 timeframe with approximately 25 to 30 participants (2 invited instructors; 2 local instructors; 5 regional scientists; 9 local scientists) and 10 students. The request includes funds for planning, food, travel, and evaluation support.The objectives of the workshop are to:. Promote awareness of the role of CI in conducting research and. Engage scientists on the use of tools in support of CI based tasks.The expected outcomes of the workshop will be a:. Report on the assessment of the workshop, participant's experience and reactions, andidentification of scientist needs and difficulties when using both Kepler and WDO-It insupport of cyberinfrastructure tasks and. Experience in running more extensive workshops (e.g., in coordination with the GEONSummer Institute for Geoscientists) that includes a broader audience.The funded activity will include assessment and evaluation to examine the usability of UTEP's WDO It tool, the quality of the generated abstract workflows, and the value of the workshop.
