Session ID#: 13577

Session Description:
Past decades' cyberinfrastructure investments on Earth and Space sciences have accumulated a large amount of assets including data, tools, systems, expertise, and communities for tackling the increasingly complex challenges we are facing today, such as climate change. While these assets have their own specific capabilities, their integration in a cohesive service oriented fashion would enable bigger impact and advance science. Architectural studies, integration and testing are critical steps to foster reuse and integration of existing data and capabilities to address critical science questions that could not be answered before. This session is organized to explore the latest on architecture and testbed development in cyberinfrastructure for Earth/Space sciences such as:

1. Existing system architectures for Earth and space systems.

2. Integrating, bridging data systems using novel architectures. 

3. System integration and test approaches, environments, and practices. 

4. Global and local conceptual architectural studies and solutions.
