4. 4 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge VOTC Loose confederation project based new technologies for Euro-VO technology assessment concept development prototype software proposed standards

5. 5 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge VO-TECH First VOTC project Funded by EU-FP6 + partner contbns approx 2 x 13FTEs for 3 years partners AstroGrid, VO-France, ESO, INAF formal start Jan 1st 2005

6. 6 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Methodology Four broad areas infrastructure tools resource discovery data exploration six month sub-projects output : study reports, prototypes, proto-standards

7. 7 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge VO gap analysis Glue Data Federation Services

8. 8 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Glue resource discovery workflow single sign on virtual storage

9. 9 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Glue workflow : clunky start distributed storage : crude start single sign on : simple plans, no deployment global issue resource discovery : good start registry : ok dictionary : ok semantics : next key step global wave : sem.web, ontology find a pragmatic next step

10. 10 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Data Federation data interoperability : good start data integration : crude start : circle xmatch multi-match; probabilistic prior information not just tables ! science -- algorithms -- code need semantics "what can I do with this data?"

11. 11 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge multi- views of a Supernova Remnant Shocks seen in the X- ray Heavy elements seen in the optical Dust seen in the IR Relativistic electrons seen in the radio

12. 12 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Services data access : good start data query : good start data manipulation : bare start this is the goldmine tools : viewing, plotting, measuring : need lots exploration : multi-D visualisation, clustering analysis : FTs, model fitting, correlation analysis much exists : needs VO integration.

13. 13 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge personal hot list single sign on astro soln / industry soln / academic soln data integration what does it mean ? semantic web / ontology AI pipe dream or real next step ? data services whats ready to rock and roll ?

14. 14 18-Nov-2004Andy Lawrence :VO-TECH workshop, Cambridge Goals this meeting Bonding Free debate on key issues Sketch of goals for first cycle
