A Grid Enabled Network for the Molecular and Materials Structure Sciences

分子和材料结构网络将通过建立强大的电子科学资源来推动前沿科学，这将推动具有深远国家利益的创新合作。将为结构确定仪器开发远程访问，包括研究反应堆和澳大利亚同步加速器。一个具有跨学科内容和强大的可视化和分析能力的结构数据库将是“智能信息使用”的典范。MMSN涵盖了物理、计算机科学、化学和生物化学，并促进了这些学科的相互作用，将影响所有四个国家研究优先事项3目标，并将与其他国家和国际电网相连，成为新兴全球电网的一部分。

The Molecular and Materials Structure Network will propel leading-edge Science by building powerful e-Science resources that will compel innovative collaborations of profound National benefit. Remote access will be developed for structure determination instruments, including the Research Reactor and Australian Synchrotron. A structure database with cross disciplinary content and powerful visualisation and analysis capabilities will exemplify "smart information use". Encompassing physics, computer science, chemistry and biochemistry, and catalysing interaction across these disciplines, the MMSN will impact all four National Research Priority 3 goals, and will be linked to other national and international Grids to become part of the emerging global Grid.
