1. 12 GeV Era Computing (MIS) Kari Heffner May 20, 2011

2. MIS Systems – Overall outlook Continue to support existing applications Future direction –Expect even more reliance on electronic processing –Improve integration of systems (single-sign-on, improved portal, etc.) –Evaluate SAAS (software as a service) solutions as an alternative

3. MIS Systems expected to change Support improvement of financial applications –Web-based interfaces –Reporting on the desktop –Integrated systems Deploy a better architecture for storing / retrieving information –Offer solutions for content / document management –Improved searching –Include records management component

4. MIS Systems expected to change Improved support of the science divisions –Re-write of proposal/experiment databases –Support other systems as appropriate Shift schedule, etc. Complete automation of JLab forms (electronic routing, signatures)

5. Additional Resources 1 additional MIS staff member –In order to support the additional needs of the Lab, including the increase in base staff as well as the increased reliance on automation, we are asking for a single additional staff member for the 12GeV era.
