Summary
Scientific Instruments as ICT Components in Building a GrEMLIN for e-Research. The proposal seeks to initiate the development of a GrEMLIN, a Grid Enabled Multi-Level Instrument Network, for e-Research. Scientific instruments, whether at conventional laboratories or at major facilities, may be regarded as specialised ICT components in a network providing remote access to such instrumentation. Collaborative remote access and data analysis brings efficiency and effectiveness dividends, that can ....Scientific Instruments as ICT Components in Building a GrEMLIN for e-Research. The proposal seeks to initiate the development of a GrEMLIN, a Grid Enabled Multi-Level Instrument Network, for e-Research. Scientific instruments, whether at conventional laboratories or at major facilities, may be regarded as specialised ICT components in a network providing remote access to such instrumentation. Collaborative remote access and data analysis brings efficiency and effectiveness dividends, that can be enhanced through the harnessing of Grid technologies. The collaborative project will leverage middleware, Web Services and e-Science software developments in the US and UK, to provide Grid enabled remote instrument access and data analysis as a powerful e-Research tool.Read moreRead less

Summary
Network for Optical and Quantum Science and Technology. This Network links world-class researchers involved with the investigation and application of light and atoms, particularly at the quantum level. Three ARC Centres of Excellence* will be linked and networked with other successful research groups in optics, including atom optics and Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), quantum computing, optical switching, imaging, and interferometry. The Network-facilitated interactions will foster multidisci ....Network for Optical and Quantum Science and Technology. This Network links world-class researchers involved with the investigation and application of light and atoms, particularly at the quantum level. Three ARC Centres of Excellence* will be linked and networked with other successful research groups in optics, including atom optics and Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC), quantum computing, optical switching, imaging, and interferometry. The Network-facilitated interactions will foster multidisciplinary approaches linking the majority of the Australian optics community, and harnessing Australia's existing research excellence in optics to address major questions in optical and quantum science and technology.
* Quantum-Atom Optics (ACQAO), Quantum Computing Technology (CQCT), Ultrahigh Bandwidth Devices and Optical Systems (CUDOS).
