Abstract :
Problem solving environments (PSEs) are increasingly important for scientific discovery. Today´s most challenging problems often require multi-disciplinary teams, the ability to analyze very large amounts of data, and the need to rely on infrastructure built by others rather than reinventing solutions for each science team. The TeraGrid Science Gateways program recognizes these challenges and works with science teams to harness high-end resources that significantly extend a PSE´s functionality.
