The DataNet Federation Consortium (DFC) is an NSF funded project to assemble
national data cyberinfrastructure through the federation of existing data
management systems. The DFC uses the iRODS data grid middleware to implement
the interoperability mechanisms needed to federate heterogeneous data
repositories, information catalogs, and workflow systems. The DFC provides a
collaboration environment that enables researchers to share their data
products and workflows, while managing both publication and preservation of
research results. A specific intent is support for reproducible data-driven
research.

The DFC is collaborating with the iRODS Consortium on the implementation of
iRODS version 4.0. This provides a pluggable architecture for production
environments, enabling the addition of new storage systems, micro-services,
and authentication systems to a running system. The expectation is that data
products developed in a research project will be first shared, then analyzed
through processing pipelines, then published, and then preserved. At each
stage, the resources used to manage the data may change, the policies used
to control the environment will change, and the user community will broaden.
Viable data cyberinfrastructure gracefully handles the evolution of a data
collection.

Presenter:

Dr. Reagan W. Moore
Director, Data Intensive Cyber-Environments Center
Chief Scientist, Data Intensive Cyber-Environments at RENCI
Professor, School of Information and Library Science
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Reagan Moore is the Director of the Data Intensive Cyber Environments Center
at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, professor in the School
of Information and Library Science, and Chief Scientist at the Renaissance
Computing Institute. Moore coordinates research efforts in development of
policy-based data management systems that are used to support data grids,
digital libraries, processing pipelines and persistent archives. Moore is
the co-principal investigator for the development of the integrated Rule
Oriented Data System (iRODS). The iRODS technology automates the application
of management policies, automates validation of assessment criteria, and
minimizes the labor required to manage massive distributed data collections.
The iRODS software is available as an open source distribution at
http://irods.diceresearch.org. Moore has a B.S. in physics from the
California Institute of Technology (1967), and a Ph.D. in plasma physics
from the University of California, San Diego (1978).
