Introduction and Executive Summary
Pervasive Technology Institute has enjoyed another successful period, both in the receipt of
more external grants and also in the participation of several projects of national and
international significance. PTI has gained a solid national reputation for Indiana University and
the state of Indiana in the areas of high performance computing, data management and
preservation, computational support of scientific research, and security and privacy
policymaking.
Although the announcement came shortly after the close of the current period, it is notable
that Indiana University was recently named by Computerworld magazine as one of the 100 best
places to work in IT (http://www.computerworld.com/spring/bp/detail/767). Although this is
an honor that is shared by all IT organizations within the IU system, the recognition specifically
pointed to factors such as the opportunity for employees to participate in leading research, be
published in scholarly journals and present at international conferences as contributing to IU
receiving this distinction. In these ways, PTI has contributed significantly to the award criteria
and is an important component in IU’s success in attracting and retaining top intellectual talent
to the state of Indiana.
Other major highlights for the reporting period are summarized below in non-technical
language. More detailed and technical descriptions can be found in the body of the report. This
report has been structured to provide nontechnical bullet lists in this section and at the start of
each of our other especially technical sections. Another important change the standard format
of this report is the inclusion of IU’s Research Technologies division as a separate entity within
the PTI report rather than including contributing information within each center. RT contributes
so substantially to the success of PTI and its activities are so cross-cutting that it felt important
to give RT its own section in order to most accurately and completely reflect its contribution to
the success of PTI.
PTI highlights for the reporting period:


In a time of unprecedented national financial hardship PTI has enjoyed continued
grant success during the period. PTI received additional grant awards totaling nearly
$4 million (bringing its external funding total to more than $22 million) and
submitted a remarkable 54 currently pending grants totaling more than $82.5
million. According to a recent report by the US Science Coalition, “When public
money is invested in university-based basic research there is tremendous return on
investment. Research creates jobs directly for those involved and indirectly for many
others, through innovations that lead to new technologies, new industries and new
companies.” (http://www.sciencecoalition.org/successstories/index.cfm)
Fred H. Cate, director of the PTI Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research served as
a policy advisor on technology privacy and security, making presentations to the US
Department of Commerce, the Committee on Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime and

Drugs in the US Senate, and the US Federal Trade Commission. Testimony provided
by Cate was cited in numerous national media outlets, including the New York
Times.
During the reporting period, the Digital Science Center along with Research
Technologies Systems and Applications groups completed the initial stage of
hardware installation and testing for the FutureGrid project. This is a complicated
and delicate process that required significant technical expertise and effort to
achieve. The FutureGrid project places Indiana and Indiana University at the helm of
one of the most important national efforts related to the future of technology and
scientific research. Supported by a $10 million grant from the National Science
Foundation and led by PTI’s own Geoffrey Fox, FutureGrid provides a testbed for the
most significant emerging grid and cloud technologies. These are the technologies
expected to drive global business and scientific research in the coming decades. The
project will be used to define the future of US national computing infrastructure and
contributes significantly to US competitiveness in the sciences.
The DSC along with Research Technologies Systems completed installation of more
than 21 teraflops of computing power to support the Polar Grid project during the
reporting period. The Polar Grid project, which is funded by a series of grants from
the National Science Foundation, has been enormously successful and has continued
to grow. The project is creating a computational grid in the polar regions to support
research by the NASA and the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) on
the earth’s rapidly melting polar ice sheets. Rising sea levels created by melting ice
sheets threaten coastal areas with flooding and endangers wildlife. The
computational power provided by Polar Grid is allowing scientists to begin
processing data while still in the field and has greatly increased the speed at which
discoveries can be made in this critical race against time. During the period, RT
Systems employees traveled to Greenland and Antarctica and Chile to install and
upgrade Polar Grid systems.
The Data to Insight Center (D2I) organized and led Indiana University’s participation
in a $20M proposal to the National Science Foundation Sustainable Digital Data
Preservation and Access Network Partners (DataNet) program. The project would
help to develop techniques to preserve valuable data related to meteorological
science. Word on the proposal, which received a successful NSF site visit in February
2010, is expected summer 2010.
D2I made significant contributions to the Vortex2 project, the largest national effort
to date to understand the formation and behavior of tornados. D2I’s LEAD II
technology provided real-time forecasts to handheld devices used by storm chasers
in the field.

Center Highlights January 1-May 31, 2010
The following bullet list provides a non-technical overview of accomplishments for the period.
More detailed and technical descriptions appear in the section that follows.


With the Research Technologies Systems group, the Digital Science Center made
significant progress on its FutureGrid Project. FutureGrid is funded by a $10 million
grant from the National Science Foundation and puts IU in a leadership role of one of
the largest and most important research efforts in U.S. computational science.
FutureGrid is a national testbed for emerging grid and cloud computing technologies
that hold tremendous potential for business and scientific research. FutureGrid will help
to define way the NSF provides computing power to scientists in the coming decades
and will have a significant impact on U.S. competitiveness in scientific research. During
the reporting period, the main infrastructure for FutureGrid was completed. A site visit
by the NSF is scheduled in July to approve the hardware and open the system for use by
scientists.
The DSC along with Research Technologies Systems completed installation of more than
21 teraflops of computing power to support the Polar Grid project during the reporting
period. The Polar Grid project, which is funded by a series of grants from the National
Science Foundation, has been enormously successful and has continued to grow. The
project is creating a computational grid in the polar regions to support research by the

NASA and the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) on the earth’s rapidly
melting polar ice sheets. Rising sea levels created by melting ice sheets threaten coastal
areas with flooding and endangers wildlife. The computational power provided by Polar
Grid is allowing scientists to begin processing data while still in the field and has greatly
increased the speed at which discoveries can be made in this critical race against time.
During the period, RT Systems employees traveled to Greenland and Antarctica and
Chile to install and upgrade Polar Grid systems.
The Digital Science Center continues as a leader in the development of portals and
gateways. Portals and gateways are online services that help scientists gain easy access
to the supercomputers they need to perform their research. Using supercomputers can
be a significant challenge because there has traditionally been a steep learning curve.
Portals and gateways allow scientists to more easily access advanced technology
without requiring a deep understanding of how that technology operates. During the
reporting period, the DSC’s QuakeSim earthquake modeling portal played a crucial role
in research conducted by NASA on the Baja California earthquake.
During the reporting period, the Community Grids Lab had an important software
release of its “Twister” program, a powerful tool that helps scientists find meaning in
very large data sets. Twister improves upon Google’s popular MapReduce software tool,
allowing it to achieve higher performance, perform faster data transfers, and reduce the
time it takes to process vast sets of data for data mining and machine learning
applications. Twister has a great deal of potential to increase the speed of scientific
discovery, especially in the areas of biomedical research.
The Open Systems lab had an active period, completing one major project and reaching
milestones in several others. The OSL contributes to scientific and business
competitiveness in Indiana and the U.S. by providing valuable open source software that
optimizes high performance computers and is freely available to the scientific research
and business communities.
The Complex Networks and Systems (CNeTS) group had another successful period. A
primary research focus involves the modeling of the spread of infectious disease,
including H1N1 and HIV in parts of Africa, in order to help health officials make decisions
about how to prevent or slow the spread of illness in populations. During the period,
CNeTS director, Alex Vespignani was featured in the prestigious international journals
Science and Nature describing his work on modeling the H1N1 pandemic. Vespignani’s
predictions about the spread of H1N1 were found to be exceptionally accurate, bringing
him international recognition for the modeling techniques developed in his lab.

II.2 Digital Science Center Research
The following section includes research highlights for the Digital Science Center as a whole and
for each lab and group within the DSC.
II.2.1 Center-wide Research
Projects Achieving Major Milestones
FutureGrid (With Research Technologies Systems and Applications Groups)
The FutureGrid project, which was announced in the previous report and started in fall of 2009,
is a test bed for emerging technology related to grid and cloud computing. The project places
Indiana University at the helm of one of the most important, leading edge projects in the field
of computational science today. It is a national collaboration supported by a $10 million grant
from the National Science Foundation led by PTI’s Geoffrey Fox. The goal of FutureGrid is to
allow the U.S. science and business communities to test the most promising new
supercomputing technologies in order to plan the next generation of national computational
infrastructure that will be provided by the National Science Foundation. The NSF currently
provides national computational resources to the U.S. scientific community through
supercomputing centers and networks such as the TeraGrid. FutureGrid will help NSF to
establish future scientific research networks in order to preserve U.S. competitiveness in
science and business.
FutureGrid focuses on cloud technologies as the emerging computational paradigm in the
coming decades. Wikipedia defines cloud computing as “Internet-based computing, whereby
shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on
demand, like the electricity grid.” Cloud computing supports research and business by providing
a single access point to numerous computational resources that lie “in the cloud” without
10
requiring that the user know or understand the complex technology that is supporting them.
Businesses such as Google and Amazon are already heavily relying upon cloud computing to
support their business and are proving it to be a critical emerging technology.
The current reporting period has been highly active for FutureGrid, as the main framework of
the testbest was established and tested during this time. One of the major milestones is the
acceptance by the NSF of the computing hardware that makes up the grid testbed. This is still in
progress but should be completed by end of June 2010. The hardware that will become
available in the last week of June is listed in the table below. At present, the FutureGrid team is
working on a software architecture that allows them to dynamically provision different
software stacks onto the FutureGrid hardware initiated by the users. FutureGrid uses a concept
called “raining” that supports virtual environments, helping to minimize overhead and
maximize performance for the research scientists (see figure below).

FutureGrid “rains” an environment on the testbed suitable for the user to conduct his experiments. It reduces overhead and
maximizes performance for researchers.
The coming period will be an exciting time for the FutureGrid project as the hardware officially
becomes available for use by the community and large-scale testing of these cutting edge cloud
11
technologies will begin.
Portals and Gateways (with Research Technologies Applications Group)
The Research Technologies Applications (RT-A) group at Indiana University continues to partner
with the PTI Digital Science Center to address usability issues in scientific computing through
the development of portals and gateways. Today’s multicore computers offer unparalleled
computing power for scientific research, but the barriers to entry can be quite high. Portals and
gateways provide easy to use single entry points for scientists to access high performance
computers and other advanced technology essential to their research without requiring that
they have an in-depth understanding of the computers themselves. During the reporting
period, DSC and RTA staff have worked together to release tools and provide support for
science gateways as part of the Open Science Grid and Linked Environments for atmospheric
discovery. Portals and gateways developed by PTI are helping U.S. scientists be more
competitive by helping them gain easy access to some of the most powerful scientific
computing available.
PolarGrid (With Research Technologies Systems Group)
The IU-led Polar Grid project is creating a high performance computational grid in the northern
and southern global arctic regions in order to process data collected about the rapidly melting
ice sheets. Funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation, Polar Grid allows scientists
to process ice sheet data while still in the field, speeding the time between data collection and
discovery. Because the melting sea ice has potentially serious environmental consequences for
low-lying and coastal areas, this is a problem that must be understood and mitigated as quickly
as possible. Polar Grid is significantly improving the speed at which discoveries about polar ice
can be made.
During the reporting period, the Research Technologies Systems group installed 21.9 TFLOPS of
HPC systems for the Polar Grid project. A portion of that system, 64 nodes, has been installed
separately and will be relocated to Elizabeth City State University (ECSU) later in 2010. ECSU is
a partner on the PolarGrid award and is a minority serving institution in North Carolina. In
addition to installing this new system at IU in Bloomington two RT-S staff members traveled to
Thule in Greenland for fieldwork related to the PolarGrid project. The expedition was lead as
part of NASA’s IceBridge mission, the largest airborne survey ever flown of Earth's polar ice. RTS also worked closely with the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) that is
headquartered at the University of Kansas for the IceBridge mission. RT-S is working closely
with CReSIS and RT-A to port the current analysis code from using runtime Matlab libraries to a
compiled environment.
12
II.2.2 Community Grids Lab
The mission of the Community Grids Lab (CGL) is to create the technology that will enable grid
computing to help solve important scientific problems. In creating new global communities, grid
computing will open the way to new possibilities for e-Business and e-Science. The Community
Grids Lab (CGL) focuses on creating new technology infrastructure and applications that will
enable distributed business enterprises and cyberinfrastructure for distributed science and
engineering. Computers and networks are getting faster; the distinction between computers
and the network is blurring. This points to a future where individuals and corporations interact
with grid-based applications without needing to explicitly manage the underlying technology
details. CGL's focus on applications has spawned much cross-disciplinary collaboration in
research and development of scientific and business applications. A current major emphasis is
in earth science and particle physics, with other projects in education, biocomplexity,
chemistry, apparel design, digital film production, and sports informatics.
Projects Achieving Major Milestones
Open Grid Computing Environments
Funding Agency: National Science Foundation
The Open Grid Computing Environments (OGCE) project creates open source software for
building science gateways and consults with many major participants in the TeraGrid Science
Gateway program. Science gateways are web-based access points and tools that make it easier
for scientists to use advanced computing technology by greatly reducing the amount of
computational expertise required to run experiments using supercomputers and other
advanced technology. During this period the OGCE completed its preliminary integration of
several major components into a single build environment: the OGCE Google-compatible
Gadget container, the XRegistry service registry, the GFAC application factory tool, the XBaya
workflow composer, the Registry gadget, and the Experiment Builder gadget. All of these tools
can now be compiled and deployed together or on separate servers using a single build
command. The OGCE also provided integration and consulting support for the following science
gateways: GridChem (NCSA), a computational chemistry gateway, is now using the XBaya
workflow composer; UltraScan (UTHSCSA), a biophysics gateway, is using OGCE's GFAC and
supporting tools to prototype its new job submission infrastructure; the Expressed Sequence
Tag (EST) Pipeline Portal is using the OGCE's advanced job submission tools to run 10,000's of
jobs on both local Indiana University and TeraGrid resources. The completion of this milestone
should greatly improve the ability of scientists to use TeraGrid computing resources.
13
QuakeSim
Funding Agency: NASA
QuakeSim is a NASA funded project to build a science gateway and supporting Web service for
the earthquake science community. QuakeSim includes both earthquake fault spatial
deformation and GPS time series analysis tools. During the current reporting period, we made
several major upgrades to the deployed infrastructure, including the ability to create synthetic
InSAR fringe diagrams that can be compared to direct observation. These tools were used
prominently by PI Andrea Donnellan in studies of the aftermath of the Baja California, Mexico
earthquake (see figure).

computational chemistry workflow chain of services (represented as boxes) that combine the CHARMM and Gaussian
applications to calculate molecular structures.

earthquake, produced using the QuakeSim portal's online services.
OREChem
Funding Agency: Microsoft Research
OREChem is a collaboration between crystallographers, digital librarians, and
cyberinfrastructure researchers to extend the Object Reuse and Exchange (ORE) specification to
crystallography and more generally to the problem of integrated scientific information
management. The Community Grids Lab's role is to provide expertise in service-oriented
computing and Grid computing. During the current reporting period, we developed a collection
of REST services for processing OREChem Atom/XML feeds, converting them into RDF triples
and storing in our RDF triple store for later search and retrieval. We also implemented services
for constructing and executing computational chemistry jobs on the TeraGrid using OREChem
feed information. We used OGCE tools for this service composition and execution.
15
A subset of IU's OREChem services are shown in the OGCE's XBaya workflow composer tool. These online services (boxes in
the main canvas) are integrated to extract crystallographic information (molecular structures), create Gaussian
computational chemistry input files from them, and run Gaussian jobs on the TeraGrid.
Multicore Project
Funding Agency: Microsoft, Inc.
This project is focused on programming models and runtime that will be used on systems of
multicore computers. These programming models are useful for scientific research in a variety
of biomedical areas including genetic and drug research as well as other data intensive
research. Initial work focused on performance of threading versus Message Passing Interface
(MPI) in both kernels and datamining. Current major areas are biomedical applications and data
intensive technologies using Hadoop and Dryad.
MapReduce and its generalizations offer an attractive programming model for data intensive
computing. In particular, our research is using, extending and evaluating Iterative MapReduce
16
which adds support of iterative problems to the core MapReduce capabilities of “map”
followed by “reduce”.
During the period, CGL had a major open source software release of “Twister”
(http://www.iterativemapreduce.org/), developed as a novel prototype of i-MapReduce. We
will continue to look at community and commercial MapReduce systems Hadoop and Dryad
and feed back our lessons to their developers directly and through our papers. We have
identified support of inhomogeneous problems (where currently dynamic scheduling in Hadoop
sometimes outperforms the static task definition in Dryad) as one key issue. A challenge for
Iterative MapReduce is maintaining the dynamic fault tolerance of current systems while
extending support to iterative problems with tighter synchronization constraints.
II.2.3 Open Systems Lab (Andrew Lumsdaine, Director)
The OSL mission is to develop science and technology for computing with large-scale and
pervasive hardware and software systems, to enable more productive computing and software
development, and to foster economic development in the State of Indiana. Work in the Open
Systems Laboratory (OSL) is motivated by the changing nature of modern information
technology systems.
Projects Completed During Current Reporting Period
ST-CRTS: Collaborative Research: Lifting Compiler Optimizations via Generic Programming
Principal Investigator, Co-PIs: Andrew Lumsdaine (IU), Jaakko Jarvi (Texas A&M)
Funding Agency: National Science Foundation
Award Number: CCF-0541335
Award Amount: $279,233
Effective dates: 2/15/2006 – 1/31/2010
Project Summary:
The NSF-funded research team, which includes Andrew Lumsdaine at Indiana University and
Jaakko Järvi at Texas A&M University along with their collaborators, have applied the principles
of generic programming to improve optimization of computer software by compilers. Generic
programming is a type of computer programming that uses non-specific basic instructions that
can be tailored later to specific projects, saving time and reducing redundancy when writing
code. Compilers are sets of code that convert source code written in one programming
language into another programming language in order to improve software performance. The
optimizer in a compiler attempts to transform a given program to one that performs faster than
the original program, but that still produces equivalent results. The goal of this project was to
develop new programming techniques that improve software generally – for the benefit of
science, business, education and society.
Potential transformations often arise from general (algebraic) rules. For example, an
elementary-school student learns that adding zero to any number x is an unnecessary
17
computation---optimizers today routinely utilize such a rule to eliminate unnecessary
computations. A high-school, or maybe a college student, learns that the same rule applies to
adding the zero matrix to any (compatible) matrix, and indeed to the binary operation and the
identity element of any monoid (a mathematical structure having such a law). Optimizers today
are very unlikely to take advantage of these general rules, however. Compilers' optimizers'
view of programs is very ``low-level,'' and, as a result, many optimization opportunities remain
unrealized. To achieve the best performance, programmers must adapt how they write their
programs, and often complicate them.
The research team has demonstrated how ``high-level'' general rules, algebraic laws, about
operators and functions can be represented and organized, and used by compilers' optimizers.
As a result, programmers can use the most suitable abstractions that help them in effectively
producing correct programs, and yet obtain efficient programs. The team's approach is applied
to C++, a commonly-used programming language, and targets generic simplification rules,
removal of redundant computations and data transfers, and similar optimizations.
Intellectual Merit:
Compiler research has almost exhausted the optimization opportunities for generally applicable
compiler optimizations based on properties of low-level operations. High-level domain- or
library specific optimizations, on the other hand are costly to implement and integrate into a
compiler infrastructure, and thus seldom justified. This project strikes a balance between these
two approaches, and offers an economical approach to high-level optimizations.
The research team's work on structuring high-level optimizations leverages the principles of
generic programming, in particular, the categorization of types into concepts according to their
capabilities. Defining algorithms in terms of concepts gives rise to generic algorithms that can
operate on objects of many different types. Defining optimizations in terms of concepts
similarly gives rise to generic optimizations that apply to operations over many different types.
To enable the expression of generic, concept-based optimizations, an NSF-funded research
team had worked toward direct language support for generic programming for C++. This work
resulted in the "ConceptC++" extensions to C++, designed together with many collaborators.
Utilizing ConceptC++, and the ConceptGCC compiler developed by Doug Gregor within this
project. Building on these achievements, the research team developed a generic simplifier,
whose transformations are guided by concepts and "axioms" contained within them. The team
also devised two prototype languages for writing compiler optimizations (and analyses)
generically and thus reusing them across different types.
Broader Impact:
Software is important in most of all aspects of modern life; improvements on software
development methods and tools that make it easier to develop more efficient software thus
translate to benefits to society – from scientific research, to business and economics. The work
in this project directly impacts the future development of mainstream programming languages
18
that support generic programming, C++ in particular, and on their standard libraries. The
research team members participate in programming language standards bodies, collaborate
with language and compiler implementers, and work to introduce language features that better
support generic programming.
The project has directly trained graduate students and post-doctoral researchers in the
emerging field of generic programming, and will continue to do so in the future. Results from
this research are integrated into graduate programming courses. Overall, the project advances
discovery and understanding by relieving researchers and software professionals to focus more
on the solutions to their scientific and development problems.
This work also created infrastructure, namely concept-enabled compilers, that will enable
future research in generic programming. The research team has published several papers on
work performed within the project, as well as giving various presentations at academic
conferences, and made software artifacts available for others to use.
Transformative Nature of Research:
Today's mainstream compilers are considered impenetrable "black boxes" to programmers.
Producing programs that perform efficiently may often require iteratively modifying the
program in small ways to coerce the compiler into producing a fast executable. Optimizations
are not under the control of the programmer. With the approach researched, developed, and
advocated in this project, programmers are given this control. The end result is that the
iterative tuning process can be drastically reduced and thus sped up, translating into greatly
increased programming productivity. Moreover, when programmers no longer need to
abandon their high-level abstractions to obtain performance, it is possible to express more
complex problems. Ultimately, this can transform the way in which programmers approach
optimizing their programs and their libraries.
Projects Achieving Major Milestones during the Reporting Period
Coordinated Fault Tolerance for High Performance Computing
Funding Agency: U.S. Department of Energy
We have focused our efforts in Open MPI on reliability improvements, and expanding support
for the CIFTS Fault Tolerance Backplane (FTB). As part of the reliability improvements, we
matured the process fault recovery operations to support run-through stabilization, reactive
automatic recovery, and proactive process migration. The former option supports continuing
research into fault tolerant MPI semantics and applications that can continue processing even
though some processes may have failed. At Supercomputing 2009, we demonstrated a fault
tolerant version of POV-Ray using Open MPI's stabilization feature and the CIFTS FTB. The
proactive process migration feature allows end users to move processes away from predicted
failure and planned system outages. The reactive automatic recovery feature provides end
users with a transparent, automatic recovery mechanism when an unexpected process failure
occurs. As part of our expanding support for the CIFTS FTB, we have improved the internal error
19
reporting mechanisms by adding a stable reporting interface, called OPAL SOS, which can report
directly to the FTB. Additionally, we have been collaborating with CIFTS FTB partners to
standardize fault events and workflows to enhance the overall resiliency of HPC systems by
encouraging adoption of the FTB. Alongside this work, we added support for
checkpoint/restart-based parallel debugging in Open MPI that can dramatically shorten the
debugging cycle, saving software developers hours or days of time spent debugging.
Open Source Cluster Application Resources (OSCAR)
We have restructured the main frame of OSCAR since version 6.0.x to make the system more
reliable and to enable the developers to participate in the programming with the less learning
curve of the codes. The renovation of the OSCAR main frame is done and trunk of the OSCAR
SVN repository is stabilized. As OSCAR 6.0.x promised, 'yum install oscar' works with the OSCAR
specific repository setup on OSCAR 6.0.5. Meanwhile, we still have to test all the features of the
new release depending on the OSCAR communities' help and we really need to find a way to
test OSCAR systematically. We believe that the systematic testing should be considered in the
new release even though this has nothing to do with the new features of OSCAR. As the usual
OSCAR release, we will be able to focus on supporting more distros and platforms by the
systematic testing. We support RHEL5(X86, X86-64), Debian(X86, X86-64), and Ubuntu(X86,
X86-64) so far.
Development and Improvement of a Tissue-Simulation
Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health
The OSL is collaborating with the Biocomplexity Institute at Indiana University to provide an
open-source, multiscale modeling environment for cell-based modeling of the development,
structure, behavior and pathologies of tissues and organs, the Tissue-Simulation Environment
(TSE), as one such platform. The TSE will build upon the current Cellular Potts Model-based
modeling environment, CompuCell3D, and the Systems Biology Workbench to allow simple
model development by both modelers and experimentalists, provide a framework for model
sharing, support SBML and CellML and allow transparent selection of the level of modeling
detail. The software will include graphical user interfaces and support for parallel computing.
During this reporting period, we were able to develop and demonstrate a solution for
performing parameter studies of CompuCell3D models that combined workflows and IU’s Big
Red supercomputer to perform the simulations. The open source software, VisTrails
(vistrails.org), was used to construct the workflows and handle data provenance. One workflow
automatically constructed multiple sets of parameter values and remotely invoked (via Globus
Toolkit) simultaneous CompuCell3D jobs on Big Red. Another workflow retrieved the resulting
output data and rendered images in VisTrails. This project offered a valuable alternative to the
traditional, workstation-based CompuCell3D application.

study run on Big Red.
Causal Connectivity and Computations in Hundreds of Neurons in Cortex
Funding Agency: National Science Foundation
The OSL is collaborating with John Beggs (Physics, IU) to determine “causal” connectivity
between hundreds of neurons in cortical networks and determine computational operations in
neurons where causal connections converge. Causal connectivity has been conceptualized in
many ways, but this project adopts the definition given by Norbert Wiener: “For two
simultaneously measured signals, if we can predict the first signal better by using the past
information from the second one than by using the information without it, then we call the
second signal causal to the first one.” In this sense, the field does not use the term “causal”
literally, but to indicate predictive value. As a directional measure, causal connectivity cannot
be deduced merely from non-directional measures like correlations or firing rates.
During this reporting period, we have obtained some initial data from the experimentalists and
have begun developing software applications for visualization and analysis. Our goal is to
provide open source tools that neuroscience researchers are able to freely download, use, and
extend. As the datasets grow in size, we will want to apply high-performance computing to the
analysis.

A Declarative Approach to Managing the Complexity of Massively Parallel Programs
Funding Agency: National Science Foundation
Our current focus is on identifying and experimenting with declarative abstractions that make it
easier to write parallel codes, especially when programming in the Bulk Synchronous Parallel
(BSP) style. We have continued to explore the parallel algorithms exemplified by the thirteen
Berkeley Dwarfs, and have examined how their communication patterns might be expressed
declaratively. We recently finished the preliminary design of Kanor, our declarative parallel
programming language; Kanor's declarative communication constructs are based on list
comprehensions and array slices. We have implemented a prototype of Kanor as a C++
template library, and have begun porting the Berkeley Dwarfs from MPI to Kanor. Our initial
experience is that Kanor communication code is shorter and simpler than the MPI equivalent,
at least for codes written in the BSP style.
II.2.4 Complex Networks and Systems Group (Alex Vespignanni, Director)
The Complex Networks and Systems Group (CNetS) is hosted at the IU School of Informatics
and brings together faculty from different units across campus working in the broad areas of
complex networks and systems. The center activities include modeling and mining of complex
information, technological and social networks, agent-based systems, computational social
sciences, artificial life, computational epidemiology etc. The center is receiving funds by the Lilly
Foundation through the PTI, NSF, NIH and a number of private foundations and corporations.
Projects Completed During Current Reporting Period
Designing an Effective HIV Prevention Plan for Botswana by Coupling an Information Network
Model with a Meta-population Transmission Model
Principal Investigator: Alessandro Vespignani, PI
Funding Agency: University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)
22
Award Number: Subaward 2000 G MF 329
Award Amount: $37,500
Effective Dates: May 01, 2009-April 30, 2010
Project Summary:
We have used an interdisciplinary approach to design a novel theoretical framework, based on
network science that will aid in developing effective health policies for controlling the HIV
epidemic in Botswana, a resource-constrained country in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our research links
mathematics, physics, epidemiology, public policy and public health. We decided, as the initial
stage, to take a complex biological model that the collaborating group of Professor Blower
published in Science in January 2010 (Science. 2010 Feb 5;327(5966):697-701.) and to add a
network structure linking individuals in the model. We then plan to expand this network model
so that it reflects heterosexual transmission and apply the model to Botswana.
The funding that we were awarded from the National Academies Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI)
is helping us collect preliminary results, and identify new research directions. Once we obtain
preliminary results we will seek future support from National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Disease (NIAID) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Intellectual Merit:
The project is working on the development of a new class of models to examine the effect of
network dynamics on the spread of drug-resistant strains of HIV. The intention is to create an
understanding of how and where the virus is spreading and how it is likely to spread in the
future in order to create a targeted approach to prevention and treatment of HIV.
Broader Impact:
Our research goals are only achievable through an interdisciplinary collaboration between
specialists in very different fields. The collaboration that we have been able to form, through
NAKFI funding, is truly interdisciplinary and synergistic.
Transformative Nature of Research:
This is the first approach to the problem that will contain insights based on our new
interdisciplinary methodology using network science. It can potentially change how HIV is
managed in Botswana.
Societal Benefits:
According to the international AIDS charity, AVERT, Botswana is among the hardest hit places
on earth, with an estimated one-in-four adults living with HIV. Average life expectancy in
Botswana is currently less than forty years. Modeling the disease in Botswana will lead to
health policies that will save lives. Improving the techniques used in modeling and predicting
23
the spread of infectious disease can also improve treatment and prevention of disease
worldwide.
How Network Structure Gives Rise to Dynamical Complexity
Principal Investigator, Co-PIs: Larry Yaeger (PI), Olaf Sporns (Co-PI)
Funding Agency: National Academies, Keck Futures Initiative
Award Number: NAKFI CS22
Award Amount: $50,000
Effective Dates: May 1, 2009 – May 31, 2010
Project Summary:
We are applying a combination of an information theoretic measure of neural complexity and
network science / graph theoretical tools to the neural dynamics and network topologies of
artificial neural networks evolved to control agents in a computational ecosystem. This research
will be useful in developing new and better types of artificial intelligence. The specific goal is to
understand the relationship between network structure and network function, in general, and,
specifically, to determine which structural characteristics are most predictive of and most likely
to confer dynamical complexity in artificial neural networks. We have demonstrated a
relationship between increasing clustering coefficient, decreasing path length, and a bias
towards small-world networks that is directly correlated with increasing neural complexity
during a period of behavioral adaptation to the environment. This suggests a convergence
between evolution for network functionality and previously elucidated evolution for physical
constraints, such as wiring length and brain volume.
Intellectual Merit:
We combine a sophisticated artificial life model (Polyworld) with a powerful collection of graph
theoretical tools (the Brain Connectivity Toolbox) and the gold standard information theoretic
complexity metric (Tononi, Sporns, Edelman). The computational model has been designed so
as to force natural selection to evolve the statistics of network connectivity rather than specific
network designs, and records all network topologies and neural dynamics. By evolving the
agents in an environment with heterogeneous resources we are able to identify periods of
behavioral adaptation to the environment as the population approaches an Ideal Free
Distribution, and focus our attention to complexity growth and changes in network topology
during these periods.
Broader Impact:
We have developed a C++ version of the (MATLAB) Brain Connectivity Toolbox (BCT), speeding
it up by approximately a factor of 30. It is available at http://code.google.com/p/bct-cpp/. We
have also provided wrappers for Python calls into this library, and expect to provide wrappers
for other languages in the future. There are a substantial number of users of the original BCT,
24
ranging from its intended purpose of neural network analysis to the design of a lens for a space
telescope, so we expect to have a significant impact on the broader scientific community.
Transformative Nature of Research:
Improvements in our understanding of the relationship between network structure and
network function may impact many fields of science. Knowledge of the specific topological
features associated with high dynamical complexity may allow us to shape the search space for
evolution in such a way as to promote higher levels of artificial intelligence in shorter
timeframes.
Societal Benefits:
The dynamics of social networks are being used to illuminate everything from online
communication to file sharing to the spread of disease. Though our work is not currently
targeted at diagnosis, it is possible that structural breakdowns resulting in neurological disorder
could be better discovered and understood given the insights we are generating.
Projects Achieving Major Milestones
Global Epidemic and Mobility Model
Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health, U.S. Defense Threat Reducation Agency, Abbott,
ISI Foundation
The Global Epidemic and Mobility (GLEaM) model provide real time forecast on the unfolding of
the H1N1 epidemic worldwide. This modeling effort has been unique as it has been the only
one attempting to obtain quantitative results worldwide. The necessity to provide new way to
obtain real estimates for the disease parameters have pushed the team to work on a new
methodology that perform a likelihood analysis of the model with respect to chronological data
of the diffusion processes. This methodology allowed us to obtain early estimates of the
transmission potential of the H1N1 virus by taking advantage of the multi-scale diffusion
processes defined by the population mobility networks. This is the only model coupling
countries worldwide and this feature is extremely relevant in evaluating the time pattern of
emerging infectious diseases. The early results have been validated with a posteriori analysis
with the real data collected by the CDC in the months of May and June. The agreement
between the predictions and the actual unfolding of the pandemic has been proven to be
remarkable. The GLEaM approach has then been used to provide in the month of June and July
long term prediction of the occurrence of the epidemic activity peak in the Northern
hemisphere countries in the winter. The method anticipated an early peak occurring in
October/November in most of the countries. The predictions, of a quantitative nature (peak
week and relative 95% reference range), have been published in early September on BMC
Medicine. This is the only paper so far that has attempted a quantitative forecast of the activity
peaks. The predictions contained in the paper have been validated since January 2010 against
the real data provided by agencies of more than 40 countries. The results show a very good
25
agreement between predictions and real data with offset of at most two weeks. These findings
provide a strong and remarkable test of the quantitative level of the prediction offered by
computational methods.

Data to Insight Center
Beth Plale, Director
III.1 Data to Insight Center Mission and Activity Summary
The mission of the Data to Insight Center (D2I) is to create tools and guidelines that allow
scientists and companies to harness the vast stores of digital data now being produced, and to
turn these data into insight that effectively guides human decisions and advances human
knowledge. This includes:
Creation of tools and guidelines for archiving large-scale and complex data and information.
Data being collected today may be valuable for decades or centuries in the future – in some
cases, data will be of value in perpetuity. The Data to Insight Center will create tools for storing
data in ways that are reliable. Decades from now a person will be able to ask, “Is this data set
really what it claims to be?” and know that that data set can be used with confidence. Related
to this, the Data to Insight Center will develop tools for the maintenance and expansion of
digital data sets over time so that one can not only find the most recent data but also ask the
question, “What was the data set as of a certain date in the past?” and get a definitive answer.
Creation of tools for listing and discovering data sets. The great library of Alexandria, founded
about 300 BC, had as its simple goal the collection of copies of all books ever written in the
world. Today’s collections of data are too vast, and in many cases too sensitive, to be held in
any one place, and the information technology challenges of managing libraries of data are
much different than libraries of books. What is needed today is not a universal library of data,
but rather a universal library catalog of data. The Data to Insight Center will work to develop
such a catalog, including the tools to create it, and the tools to look up data stored referenced
in the data catalog.
Creation of tools for using and understanding large data sets. This will include continued
development of tools that allow analysis of weather data in real time to better predict
hurricanes and tornadoes. It will also include development of tools for automated inspection of
data. Such tools will analyze data and present to a human visualizations of a data set that
include potentially interesting trends or new discoveries.
D2I includes the following labs and support units:
 Center for Data and Search Informatics - Beth Plale, Director
 Visualization and Interactive Spaces Lab - M. Pauline Baker, Director
 IU Digital Library Program - Robert McDonald, Director
 University Information Technology Services (UITS) Research Technologies (RT)
Visualization and Futures Division - Eric Wernert, Director

Center Highlights January 1 – May 31, 2010
The Data to Insight Center has seen impressive success this Spring. The Center continues to
pursue and develop opportunities along its three thrusts of Scientific Data Preservation,
Sustainability, Climate and the Environment, and Data at Scale.
Highlights for period are presented in non-technical language in the bullets below. The sections
that follow provide more detail in technical terms.

Robert McDonald was appointed as Executive Director of the newly funded KUALI Open
Library Environment, which received its initial match funding of close to a million dollars
from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
The Center has successfully participated in the NSF funded Vortex2 field effort to better
understand tornadoes. By leveraging IU’s extensive investment in high performance
computing, Data To Insight produces a handful of short-term, highly accurate weather
forecasts every morning that are instantly made available to researchers in the field
through their mobile phones. The LEAD II/Vortex2 effort is supported in part by
Microsoft.
Contributing to advancing Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM)
education, D2I’s Beth Plale collaborated with the Research Technologies Advanced
Visualization Lab on a stereo movie, funded by the NSF TeraGrid, aimed at middleschool children concerning the value of computational science and its impact in the lives
of every one of us.
In an effort that overlaps sustainability, climate and the environment, and scientific data
preservation, D2I organized and led Indiana University’s participation in a $20M
proposal to the National Science Foundation Sustainable Digital Data Preservation and
Access Network Partners (DataNet) program. The project would help to develop
techniques to preserve valuable data related to meteorological science. Word on the
proposal, which received a successful NSF site visit in February 2010, is expected
summer 2010. The proposal is in partnership with University of Michigan and University
of Illinois Urbana Champaign, with University of Michigan as the lead.
In the area of Data at Scale, or managing massive sets of scientific data, D2I is pursuing
the establishment of a research center that will allow research access to the HathiTrust
digital repository. HathiTrust is a digital repository used for digitally storing shared
university library content. This effort is related to but not completely dependent upon
the outcome of the Google Books Settlement Agreement.
The Data to Insight Center has hired postdoctoral researchers into all of its open
positions. Stacy Kowalczyk from the IU Digital Library Program joined in May 2010 and
will fill a gap in the Scientific Data Preservation thrust. Mehmet Aktas, who has a strong
background in the computer science area of systems, will join in June and will add
strength to the Data at Scale thrust. Gamal El Afandi, an atmospheric scientist with
collaborative ties to Purdue University and the National Center for Atmospheric
Research (NCAR) will join in August and add strength to the Sustainability, Climate and
Environment thrust.

III.2 Data to Insight Center Research Highlights
Projects achieving major milestones during reporting period
LEAD II/Vortex2
Funded in part by Microsoft
LEAD II is a continuation and extension of the original Linked Environments for Atmospheric
Discovery (LEAD) project, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), which makes
meteorological data, forecast models, and analysis and visualization tools available for research
and education in problems related to climate, environment and the atmosphere. LEAD II’s
involvement with Vortex2 is through providing timely, customized daily weather forecasts for
the Vortex2 field team for their specific location that day in their nomadic field effort to
understand tornado behavior. The resulting images an be accessed through a smart phone or
on the Web. The LEAD II/VORTEX2 partnership includes Plale and other scientists from IU’s
Pervasive Technology Institute in addition to atmospheric scientists Keith Brewster of University
of Oklahoma (OU) and Craig Mattocks of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. D2I’s
involvement in VORTEX2 also provides an invaluable educational experience for IU graduate
students. The students working on LEAD II are solving real-world problems with strict time
constraints. It’s the kind of experience that only comes from hands-on research. We can’t
control the weather; but we can help to predict it. LEAD II is funded in part by Microsoft
Corporation and the NSF, utilizes the Microsoft Trident Scientific Workflow Workbench, the
ARPS Data Analysis System (ADAS) services from OU, Weather Research Forecast (WRF) model,
and employs the IU Big Red supercomputer, and the TeraGrid, NSF’s national network of high
performance computing and data storage resources.
Major milestones:


For month of May, produced 186 weather forecasts and 1,300 weather images
11GB of data downloaded from the web site by active users

Karma Provenance collection and representation toolkit
(http://www.dataandsearch.org/provenance)
Karma announced the new release of the core Karma provenance collection system, Karma
v3.0, which contains instrumentation using Axis2 handlers, more extensive test clients, and
better documentation. Karma v3.0 supports provenance activities published from services,
workflows and nested workflows. The provenance data is efficiently stored in a relational
database, and supports Open Provenance Model (OPM) v1.0 standard for interfacing with the
tool. Karma has two active subprojects, netKarma and InstantKarma, both of which have
significant milestones to report this quarter.
NetKarma
Funding agency: National Science Foundation through BBN, Corp.
NetKarma is a three year effort to demonstrate provenance collection in the Global
Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) global network. In this period, the project
demonstrated several milestones:
Significant milestones:

Demonstration of NetKarma: Demonstrated provenance collection from the
experimental layer of PlanetLab. This was accomplished by working with Jeannie
Albrecht of Williams College and Amin Vahdat of UC San Diego, the team that wrote the
GUSH experiment control tool. Demoed at GENI Engineering Conference, March 2010.

The prototype collection code called “gush2netkarma-1.0” code is linked from the
NetKarma GENI WIKI page and available at the following location:

Instant Karma: Applying a Proven Provenance Tool to NASA’s AMSR-E Data Production
Stream
Funding agency: NASA
InstantKarma is a two year project funded to examine and provide provenance collection for
the NASA AMSR-E ingest pipeline. The AMSR-E is an imaging instrument on board a NASA
satellite. The products produced from the satellite include imaging sea ice over the North Pole,
and in the first phase of this project (which began in March 2010), we focus on improving the
34
useability of sea ice imagery by collecting provenance about the processes applied, and
providing that information along with the sea ice imagery when it is posted to a data
clearinghouse (the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC).
In the abbreviated period since the project began, several milestones of a startup nature were
achieved:




The Instant Karma management and technical teams worked out project start-up issues.
Primary activities involved sharing information about the different technologies brought
to the project (Karma provenance collection tool and AMSR-E product generation
environment).
The Instant Karma kickoff meeting was held April 19 at UAHuntsville. The primary
purpose of the meeting was to walk through the AMSR-E Sea Ice product generation
processing workflow in detail, identifying potential provenance information collection
points. The team identified several potential science use cases and outlined plans for
the Karma presentation at the AMSR-E Science Team meeting to be held early in June.
The team set up a testbed machine at University of Alabama Huntsville. The testbed
machine will run an experimental version of the AMSR-E processing pipeline and will be
serve as a testbed for experimentation. This system will be populated with sample
AMSR-E L2A Brightness Temperature data, to be used as input for the daily Sea Ice data
products.
AMSR-E Science Team meeting – scientists engaging in snow and ice research assembled
at a AMSR-E Science team meeting. Our team presented its goals for provenance
collection of the AMSR-E pipeline. The audience was responsive, and provided good
feedback.

XMC Cat
Funding Agency: National Science Foundation
XMC Cat is a web service toolkit for capturing and storing metadata during the execution of
scientific workflows to enable data discovery and reuse. Its advantages include adaptability to
domain schemata through configuration instead of code changes, support for automatic
capture of metadata through curation plugins, and search and browse capabilities through a
web-based GUI that dynamically adjusts to the domain schema. This allows XMC Cat to be
deployed in different scientific domains without requiring new code to be written. It is currently
in use in the LEAD Science Gateway
Significant Milestones include:


VIVOWeb
Funding agency: National Center for Research Resources/National Institutes of Health under
U24 Funding Track (Enabling National Networking of Scientists and Resource Discovery)
VIVOWeb is a two-year (Oct 2009-Sept 2011) large-scale research project that involves the
University of Florida, Cornell University, and Indiana University including the IU School of
Library and Information Science’s Cyberinfrastructure for Network Science Center, and
Information Visualization Lab, the IU Digital Library Program (D2I), the IU Libraries, and UITS
Identity Management Services. VIVOWeb was funded under U24 (Enabling National
Networking of Scientists and Resource Discovery) funds in order to provide a social networking
platform for national use in translational medicine. The goals of VIVOWeb are to expand upon
the successful VIVO social networking software developed at the Cornell University Libraries
(http://vivo.cornell.edu) and enhance its usability by building a network of institutions that use
the software in a national federation (University of Florida, Cornell University, Indiana
University, Washington University, Weill Cornell Medical College, Scripps Research Institute,
and Ponce Medical School). The IU DLP and D2I will provide the production implementation of
VIVOWeb at Indiana University and will work with UITS Identity Management Services and the
Office of the Provost to promote the service as a unique resource to IU faculty that will enable
wider engagement in many areas of research and in building stronger grant proposals among
like disciplinary researchers. The counterpart grant funded under this U24 proposal is a Harvard
based project called eagle-i. Eagle-I will devotes its two-year period to providing a network tool
for scientific resources. Eagle-I and VIVOWeb will work together to help build upon each
network’s strengths in software development, visualization, and adoption and outreach within
the translational medicine community.

Pursuit of Visualization Collaboration and Grant Opportunities
In an effort to increase external partnerships and funding from the national visualization scene
the Data to Insight Center funded two personnel from the RT-Visualization Department to
attend the Department of Energy Computer Graphics Forum in Park City Utah. This forum
provided an opportunity to network with major thought leaders and contributors involved in
DoE visualization projects. One of RT-V's strategic objectives is to define and further the
national agenda on scalable immersive visualization (encompassing both high-end and low-cost
systems). The funding of this (and other) trips specifically aimed at accomplishing this objective
directly relates to the thrusts identified by The Center. This particular trip included side-trips to
Desert Research Institute (leader in environmental sciences through the application of
knowledge and technologies to improve people's lives) and U.C. Davis.

IV.2 Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research Highlights January 1-May 31, 2010
The Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research works to improve the quality of information
assurance through research, public, and professional outreach; collaboration with practitioners
and policymakers; and bridge-building among Indiana University’s diverse resources in
information assurance research, teaching, and practice. Under the Center’s leadership, Indiana
University has been recognized as a National Center of Academic Excellence in both
Information Assurance Education and Information Assurance Research.
With the generous support of the Lilly Endowment, during the six months covered by this
report, CACR staff and fellows submitted eight grant applications seeking over $14.5 million in
support. We published 19 articles and monographs and made 22 scholarly and professional
presentations. We also brought 13 speakers to the Indianapolis and Bloomington campuses as
part of our regular cybersecurity and health informatics speaker series.
But the achievements of the past six months are reflected not only in numbers such as these,
but in the substantive work—much of it behind-the-scenes or part of longer term initiatives—in
which the Center engages. CACR organizes its work around three substantive focal areas: health
care, national security, and higher education.
Health Care
CACR has focused considerable attention on the security and privacy of health information.
While long significant, this area has achieved new importance with the rapid growth of
electronic health records and the extraordinary expansion of health-related information that is
found in non-clinical settings and is critical to the delivery of health treatments.
In April, CACR hosted the first meeting of its National Institutes of Health-funded working group
on how to protect privacy in health research. This group includes internationally recognized
physicians, health researchers, patient advocates, ethicists, privacy experts, and regulators
from the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada, who are working together on an 18month project to enhance privacy protection in health research, while eliminating bureaucratic
and unnecessary barriers to accessing research data. The group will host a stakeholders
conference in Chicago in August to address specific issues—such as multi-center research and
alternatives to patient consent—that pose the greatest challenge to formulating a more
effective and efficient privacy protection regime for medical research.
CACR has also continued building a new Center for Strategic Health Information Provisioning (CSHIP) in partnership with Medical School, Informatics and Computing, Maurer School of Law,
OVPIT, and the Regenstrief Institute. The new center will collaborate with industry, not-forprofit groups, and others to bring a wider range of resources to bear on questions concerning
how to protect and responsibly use personally identifiable health information. Stan Crosley,
former Chief Privacy Officer of Eli Lilly and Company, has been brought on board to help lead
this effort. Stan co-founded and served as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the
International Pharmaceutical Privacy Consortium, and he serves on the boards of the Indiana
42
Health Informatics Corporation, the International Association of Privacy Professionals, and The
Privacy Projects, and the Conference Board's Chief Privacy Officers Council.
To strengthen our collaboration among faculty and students interested in these important
issues, CACR sponsors a Health Informatics Seminar which meets twice each month to foster an
environment where faculty and students can learn about each other’s research and other major
research and policy developments on campus.
National Security
CACR has continued to expand its activities relating to information security and privacy in the
context of national and homeland security. Much of that work has been behind-the-scenes, for
example, participating in classified reviews of DHS cybersecurity programs. These reviews are
unusual in that they depart from the government’s usual practice of providing high-level
security clearances only to government employees and contractors. In addition, IU was one of
only three universities asked to participate in these reviews.
CACR has been in active discussions with the Indiana National Guard about how to better
address cybersecurity as part of the Indiana Complex Operations Partnership (InCOP)—a
congressionally funded initiative to support U.S. troops before and during deployment abroad.
A series of proposals are currently under review that would enhance cybersecurity training for
officers and draw on IU’s considerable network resources to provide earlier and more complete
data to military commanders on emerging cyber attacks.
CACR also hosted General Renuart, the four-star commander of NORTHCOM/NORAD, for a
second visit to explore possible collaborations between IU, DOD, and DHS.
Higher Education
IU has long been a national leader in cybersecurity efforts among colleges and universities. On
April 1, 2010, we hosted our sixth CACR Higher Education Cybersecurity Summit. Thanks to the
Lilly Endowment’s support, it was possible for 290 people from colleges and universities
throughout the Midwest to attend without charge. In addition, all of the plenary sessions were
streamed live and are available online (under “Archived Comments” at
http://www.indiana.edu/~uits/cacrsummit10/program.html).
The keynote speaker for the summit was Bruce Schneier, an internationally renowned security
technologist and author. Described by The Economist as a "security guru," Schneier is best
known as a refreshingly candid and lucid security critic and commentator. He spoke on the
timely subject: Security, Privacy, and the Generation Gap.

alumni, donors,
and visitors, and account for one-third of reported data breaches, they have been slow to adopt
privacy policies and appoint privacy officers. This panel brought together five of the first university
privacy officers to address the special challenges of protecting privacy and security in higher
education, and techniques for achieving success.
Other Activities
Not all of our activities fit within our three substantive focal areas. CACR also engages in
considerable public outreach through appearances before civic and community groups,
published op-eds, and similar activities. Working with public broadcasting station WFIU, CACR
has developed its first prototype “Security Matters” segments. Each 60-second piece addresses
a specific security threat or vulnerability, and then directs listeners to a website where they can
watch simple, how-to- video tutorials on how to perform important security tasks to counter
the threat or vulnerability (such as how to choose a strong password, set a password on an iPod
or Blackberry, secure a wireless router at home, etc.)
We have also focused efforts internally to help strengthen and coordinate IU’s capacity in
cybersecurity research and practice. With the exceptional support provided by the Lilly
Endowment, we awarded three internal grants, totaling $149,786, to support early stage
cybersecurity research. These grants are designed to help spur innovative research and
collaboration that are likely to lead to future external support, while also encouraging
imaginative approaches to practical information assurance problems. These grants are in
addition to the five internal grants (totaling $232,000) that we awarded last year.
44
We invested more than $10,700 in travel grants and student registration fees to encourage
participation in key conferences by cybersecurity faculty and students, and to support visits by
leading cybersecurity researchers and practitioners to IU. Finally, CACR appointed six new
“Fellows” from four IU units to bring a greater range of expertise to our work:
•

•
Yue Jake Chen (Informatics)
Arjan Durresi (Computer Science)
Minaxi Gupta (Informatics)
David Ripley (ANML)
Zeynep Salih (Medicine)
Greg Travis (ANML)
Xukai Zou (Computer Science)
The need for more rational and effective cybersecurity efforts continues to grow. Thanks to the
support of the Lilly Endowment, IU is increasingly recognized as a national leader in this
important effort, and we are better positioned to make an even greater difference in the
future.

V.2 Research Technologies Research and Activities
V.2.1 Research Technologies Applications Division
The Research Technologies Applications group provides support for the development, licensing,
deployment and optimization of applications to further the research mission of faculty and
students at Indiana University, as well as for the national research community through funded
cyberinfrastructure grid projects, and for commercial research in the state of Indiana through
the IEDC. Supported applications include high performance parallel MPI applications,
commercial and open source statistical and mathematical applications, and complexity hiding
interfaces such as gateways and portals.
Activity highlights:

During the reporting period, RT Applications performed the acceptance testing of all the
hardware deployed as part of the FutureGrid project. This is an intensive and intricate
operation involving measuring successful run times of many applications and algorithms
at various core counts on the machines to substantiate optimal performance.
Additional tests use the entire machine over periods of days and weeks to assure that all
aspects of the system perform reliably and robustly. The heterogeneous and distributed
nature of the FutureGrid hardware make this process a somewhat greater challenge
than the usual deployment of new supercomputing hardware.

During March 2010 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at the CERN laboratory in
Geneva, Switzerland began generating the highest energy particles (7 TeV) ever
47
produced by a particle accelerator, with significant contributions being made by IU
researchers and technologists. Researchers from the IU High Energy physics group
participate in ATLAS, a CERN project in which a subatomic particle detector measures
the fundamental building blocks of the universe. Through their work in the NSF’s Open
Science Grid (OSG) Grid Operations Center, technologists from Research Technology
Applications help in the effort to process the massive amount of data produced by
ATLAS.

Research Technology Applications, with the Pervasive Technology Institute's Digital
Science Center at Indiana University, produced a new software tool called “Twister” to
support faster execution of many data mining applications implemented as MapReduce
programs. The tool extends the functionality of MapReduce, a distributed programming
technique patented by Google for large-scale data processing in datacenter
environments. Twister allows MapReduce to achieve higher performance, perform
faster data transfers, and reduce the time it takes to process vast sets of data for data
mining and machine learning applications.

In the Spring of 2010, Indiana University announced that their popular and highly
utilized Big Red supercomputer would continue to be made available to a national
audience of scientific researchers through the NSF TeraGrid. The Research Technologies
Applications group provides expertise to users to port their applications to run in the Big
Red environment, and to optimize the applications to take advantage of the machine’s
unique architecture in order to maximize throughput. RT-A will continue to provide this
service to TeraGrid users through at least March 31, 2011.

On April 21,2010, RT-A along with partners at Dresden’s Technische Universität hosted a
hands-on workshop on Vampir, a tool designed to conduct performance analyses and
diagnose problems in serial and parallel supercomputing applications. Vampir was
created by the Center for Information Services and High Performance Computing (ZIH)
at the Technische Universität in Dresden, Germany, a close collaborative partner of IU's
Pervasive Technology Institute (PTI) in the area of high performance computing
research. The tool will be a fundamental component of FutureGrid, a collaborative grid
and cloud computing test-bed funded by the National Science Foundation and
developed under the leadership of the PTI Digital Science Center.

In January 2010, RT-A Director Scott McCaulay was invited to NSF headquarters in
Arlington, Virginia to address the Principal Investigators of the NSF Software
Development for Cyberinfrastructure program on the subject of software sustainability,
and to present the results of the Software Sustainability Workshop held in Indianapolis
in 2009
48
V.2.2 Research Technologies Systems Division
The Research Technologies Systems group provides robust and reliable systems and services
that enable computing research experimentation and implementation, and which amplify the
talents and visions of local and national researchers in a wide range of scientific domains. The
RT Systems group designs, deploys and administers the world-class supercomputing and
storage systems that make up the hardware component of Indiana University’s advanced
cyberinfrastructure, as well as the core services which support the effective use of these
systems.
The goal of this research computing environment is to enable new types of research, pedagogy,
creative activity and community impact. This environment combines deep human expertise,
robust systems and services, and advances in computer science and informatics to address the
needs of researchers and their collaborators on the local, national, and international stage.
Activity highlights:

During the reporting period, RT Applications performed the acceptance testing of all the
hardware deployed as part of the FutureGrid project and the RT Systems group
supported and installed the systems for acceptance. This is an intensive and intricate
operation involving measuring successful run times of many applications and algorithms
at various core counts on the machines to substantiate optimal performance.
Additional tests use the entire machine over periods of days and weeks to assure that all
aspects of the system perform reliably and robustly. The heterogeneous and distributed


In the first Quarter of 2010 Research Technologies Systems installed 21.9 TFLOPS of HPC
systems for the NSF PolarGrid project that’s lead by the PTI’s Digital Science Center. A
portion of that system, 64 nodes, has been installed separately and will be relocated to
Elizabeth City State University in North Carolina (ECSU) later in 2010. ECSU is a partner
on the PolarGrid award and is a minority serving institution. In addition to installing this
new system at IU in Bloomington two RT-S staff members traveled to Thule in
Greenland for fieldwork related to the PolarGrid project. The expedition was lead as
part of NASA’s IceBridge mission, the largest airborne survey ever flown of Earth's polar
ice. RT-S also worked closely with the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS)
that is headquartered at the University of Kansas for the IceBridge mission. RT-S is
working closely with CReSIS and RT-A to port the current analysis code from using
runtime Matlab libraries to a compiled environment.

AVL continued to invest in the development and deployment of stereo video. Major new
hardware developments came in the development of a split-beam stereoscopic rig for
the existing camera pair. Major new stereoscopic content acquisitions include:
prescribed burn in Brown County State Park, IU Opera dress rehearsal, IU women’s
basketball, and the men’s and women’s Little 500. Major outreach efforts include
teaching segments of a telecomm course, delivering an IDAH brownbag on stereo video,
a presentation at the WonderLab in Bloomington, and Chris Eller’s appearance on the
WTIU Friday Zone teaching kids about stereo. Stereo video holds a great deal of promise
in a variety of educational and entertainment settings.
Bill Sherman (PI) and Eric Wernert (co-PI) submitted a grant to the NSF Software
Development for Cyberinfrastructure (10508) solicitation. In conjunction with Hank
Childs (co-PI, University of California Davis) and Jim Stone (co-PI, Princeton), the project
seeks to integrate the benefits of immersive interfaces and displays with scalable
visualization tools (especially VisIt and VTK) in a systematic and sustainable manner.
AVL staff were heavily involved in the support of the Intermedia Festival held in
Indianapolis late April 2010. The Intermedia festival showcases live performances that
synthesize traditional performing arts with digital content and telecommunications. AVL
provided technical assistance and showcased guest environments in its Virtual Reality
Theater.
AVL staff collaborated with the Spring 2010 virtual reality class at the Indiana Academy.
AVL staff mentored high school students throughout the Spring semester and then
hosted students in the Virtual Reality Theater for their final presentations.
AVL contributed to the Theoretical Approach to Coordinated Behavior grant. Dr. Hui
Zhang, our newest talent, began working with Dr. Chen Yu, Psychology. This project has
been underway for quite some time but the AVL just recently began contributing. It
explores social and interpersonal behavior through the use of advanced technologies
such as robotics and virtual reality.
AVL has nearly completed the first of two stereo movies aimed at middle-school
children concerning the value of computational science and its impact on our lives as lay
51
citizens. These will be part of the TeraGrid Education, Outreach and Training Stereo
video series.
V.2.4 Research Technologies Life Science Division
RTLS is the only area within RT that is dedicated to supporting domain-focused research. Its
primary mission is to empower researchers with cutting edge, enabling information
technologies in both basic and biomedical life sciences within IU, the state of Indiana, and
beyond. RTLS consists of three subunits: the Advanced Information Technology Core, which acts
as a gateway for IU School of Medicine researchers to RT systems and services; Biomedical
Applications, which provides custom applications and services to support life sciences projects
and; the Center for Computational Cytomics, which supports basic biology researchers.
Activity highlights:



Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI) HUB-RT Life Sciences launched
two new applications in support of translational research, both funded by a NCRR
Supplement to the original CTSI award. The first, i2iconnect, is an online service that
matches inventors and their discoveries with potential industry licensing partners.
Developed in conjunction with Cook Medical, it provides a listing of potential licensing
partners by product and disease specializations and has over 1000 participants. As part
of this project, an MBA team from the Kelley School of Business developed a business
and marketing plan for i2iconnect. The second is a secure collaboration service based
on Alfresco Share that allow researchers from multiple institutions to quickly and
securely establish online collaboration sites to develop grant proposals, conduct
research on shared datasets, and prepare publications. Although still in testing, it has
already attracted 300 users across multiple institutions.
The Informatics Core for The Collaborative Initiative on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum
Disorders-The Informatics Core, part of the Biomedical Applications Group in RTLS, has
now collected over 6,900 examinations for 4 clinical research programs at 15 sites in the
US, South Africa, Russia, the Ukraine, and Finland. They are now assisting in 5 cross-site
studies on the diagnosis of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders based on face
dsymorphology, brain scans, and behavior.
Bioinformatics Support for the National NeuroAIDS Tissue Consortium (NNTC)- The
purpose of the project is to provide bioinformatics support to the members of the
National NeuroAIDS Tissue Consortium in the pursuit of their research. One of the
Consortium members, Dr. Gelman, conducted a microarray based transcriptional study
on the effects of HIV-associated encephalitis on three different parts of the brain. We
were responsible for providing the software platform that would allow for the
organization and sharing of these data. We met this milestone by deploying caArray, a
microarray data management system produced by the Cancer Biomedical Informatics
Grid (caBIG) effort at the NCI. We also provided assistance to another NNTC researcher,
Dr. Morgello, who is constructing a series of tissue microarrays from the tissues stored
52

at the NNTC. We were able to provide assistance in this effort by leveraging an existing
software package called TMAj from Johns Hopkins University. Additionally, we
integrated this software with caTissue in order to provide the much needed clinical
context to the pathologist at a crucial point in their workflow. We have presented our
progress to the Scientific Leadership Group of the NNTC and have been encouraged by
their positive response.
Cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG) Deployent at the Indiana University Simon
Cancer Center (IUSCC)- The purpose of this grant is to deploy caBIG applications
appropriately and meaningfully for the IUSCC. To this end, we deployed two
applications – caArray and caIntegrator, at the Translational Genomics Core of the IUSCC
in April, 2010. This facility is responsible for performing a number of Illumina microarray
studies for IUSCC researchers, and as such requires software to organize and distribute
microarray results from the core facility. The two software packages, which work
together in conjunction, will provide both an organizational platform (caArray), and an
integrative platform where clinical data can be associated with microarray results. This
milestone was elucidated in the Deployment Plan in the Fall of 2009, and was achieved
on schedule. Additionally, we presented our future plans to the Leadership Council on
April 5th; those activities were approved and are ongoing.
Drosophila Stock Center Database Upgrade- The CCC is helping the Drosophila stock
center in the IU Department of Biology upgrade the database that it uses for its
operations from a small, single-user database system running on an under-desk
computer to a more robust and capable system running on a real server. In the last 18
months, the project was conceived; requirements were gathered; choice of database
engine was made; and the work of conversion put under way.
Image segmentation for the identification and tracking of fluorescent blobs - Le-Shin Wu
of the CCC has been collaborating with Sidney Shaw of the IU Department of Biology to
develop algorithms to identify blobs of green protein in microscope images and to track
those blobs through time and space in 3-D movies. Typically, green protein segments
are inserted into proteins using genetic engineering techniques that insert them into
genes with are then transcribed and translated to produce protein. Tracking allows
researchers to study the location and movements of proteins in living cells. A goal of the
project was to produce an algorithm that requires no assumption about the biology of
proteins and cells. In the last 18 months, the project produced its first accepted paper
that will presented in August 2010 at the 20th International Conference on Pattern
Recognition in Istanbul, Turkey.
Image management for the Light Microscopy Imaging Center-CCC and the PTI
Community Grids Lab have been working with Light Microscopy Imaging Center in the
Department of Biology at IUB to develop a database system that will manage images
collected at microscopes at the center. In the last 18 months, the project was conceived,
planned, and work began. Basic functionality has been achieved, and a server has been
put into operation at the center. Funding for the project is being sought from the
National Science Foundation.

Bringing Distinction to the State of Indiana
PTI scientists and leadership continue to earn national and international prestige for the state
of Indiana by assuming leadership roles, serving as policy advisors and being published in
respected international publications. Some notable accomplishments during the current
reporting period are as follows:



During the period, CACR director, Fred H. Cate served as
a policy advisor on privacy and security to the US
Department of Commerce, the Committee on Judiciary
Subcommittee on Crime and Drugs in the US Senate, and
the US Federal Trade Commission. Testimony provided
by Cate was cited in numerous national media outlets,
including the New York Times.

and privacy.
During the reporting period, the Digital Science Center
along with Research Technologies Systems and Applications groups completed the initial
stage of hardware installation and testing for the FutureGrid project. This is a
complicated and delicate process that required significant technical expertise and effort
to achieve. The
FutureGrid
project places
Indiana and

Science Foundation and led by PTI’s own Geoffrey Fox, FutureGrid provides a testbed
for the most significant emerging grid and cloud technologies. These are the
technologies expected to drive global business and scientific research in the coming
decades. The project will be used to define the future of US national computing
infrastructure and contributes significantly to US competitiveness in the sciences.
Allessandro Vespignani of the Digital Science Center was published in the prestigious
international journal Nature, receiving placement as the coveted cover story. The article
featured his highly successful work predicting and modeling the spread of the H1N1
pandemic.
Professor Lizhe Wang of the DSC Community Grids Lab was named Coordinator of the
IEEE TCSC technical area of Green Computing, a significant national research effort.
The Digital Science Center in PTI was selected to host the IEEE international conference
on cloud computing, CloudCom 2010. DSC director Geoffrey Fox serves as conference
general chair, the Community Grids Lab’s Judy Qiu serves as program chair, and Daphne
Siefert-Herron of the Strategic Initiatives group is the organizing and communications
chair of that conference, which will bring top researchers from around the world to
Indianapolis.
Allessandro Vespignani was a finalist in the 2010 Mira Awards for excellence in Indiana
technology, recognizing his work on the modeling of the H1N1 pandemic.
In January 2010, Research Technologies Applications Director Scott McCaulay was
invited to NSF headquarters in Arlington, Virginia to address the Principal Investigators
of the NSF Software Development for Cyberinfrastructure program on the subject of
software sustainability, and to present the results of the Software Sustainability
Workshop held in Indianapolis in 2009.
During March 2010 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at the CERN laboratory in
Geneva, Switzerland began generating the highest energy particles (7 TeV) ever
produced by a particle accelerator, with significant contributions being made by IU
researchers and technologists. Researchers from the IU High Energy physics group
participate in ATLAS, a CERN project in which a subatomic particle detector measures
the fundamental building blocks of the universe. Through their work in the NSF’s Open
Science Grid (OSG) Grid Operations Center, technologists from Research Technology
Applications help in the effort to process the massive amount of data produced by
ATLAS.
William Barnett, of the RT Life Science group was elected Vice Chair and Chair-Elect of
the Communications Key Function Committee for the national Clinical and Translational
Sciences Award (CTSA) Consortium. This is a national consortium focusing on bringing
advances in medicine from the research labs to the bedside.
56
VII.
Institute Coordination and Support
Craig A. Stewart, Executive Director
During the period, there were few major changes in PTI Coordination and
Support functions. This is a positive situation in that PTI has reached a
period of stability in all the core areas of coordination. PTI COO Therese Miller has assembled
an exceptional team of administrators who are highly skilled in the preparation and submission
of successful funding proposals. This team has become recognized across the university as
among the top experts in grant management and preparation. Despite the group’s solid
competency and impeccable work ethic, the sheer volume of grants being submitted and
received by PTI necessitates an expansion of this group during the coming period.
The Strategic Initiatives team had only one change during the period with management of the
PTI Web site and CI Newsletter transferring from Barbara O’Leary to Peg Lindenlaub. Team
manager, Daphne Siefert-Herron has assembled a full team with in-house expertise to produce
Web content, written reports, printed materials, video and multimedia presentations for use in
external relations, education and outreach to the academic community and general public. The
quality of this team has been evident in private (in site visits with the NSF) and in public (public
communications with video regarding the Data to Insight Center’s XMCCat project). Adding
video to our communications offers a way to better convey both the content of our work and a
sense of excitement about it.
Each of the PTI centers now enjoys the support and coordination of a full-time project manager
who oversees all aspects of administrative management within the centers. With all of these
pieces now solidly in place, PTI has entered a period of reliable organization and exceptional
productivity.
57
VIII. Management and Operations
Therese Miller, Chief Operating Officer
Pervasive Technology Institute continues to move down a path toward sustainability. Grant
opportunities are at an all time record, as PTI has gained national recognition in numerous
areas of research. Overall management of grant projects has increased tremendously, including
monthly progress and financial reporting. In particular, we are focusing on compliance aspects
of these grants, with special attention paid to personnel effort reporting.
Total active funding now exceeds $22 million, with an additional $71.4 million in pending
proposals.
PTI is fortunate to be located in the new Innovation Center (IC) at Indiana University. This area
has been targeted as a future technology park, and the IC continues to be a hub for economic
development. The future Cyberinfrastructure Building (CIB) is now under construction adjacent
to the IC and will be home to our Research Technologies collaborators in the Fall of 2011. Also
adjacent to these buildings is the new IU Data Center, housing supercomputers and file storage
systems; cyberinfrastructure that are critical to many research projects. Collaboration and
innovation are improved by the overall physical location and convenience of these assets.
The Strategic Initiatives group continues to focus on enhancing the identity of PTI within the
state, as well as the nation. They strengthen our overall mission, by making the public aware of
the work of PTI researchers that support and contribute to many basic science research areas.
This is research that makes a difference to the nation and the world, as it attempts to solve
some of the basic environmental and societal problems of today.
58
IX.
Economic Development
In the 18 months since the inception of PTI, the Institute has brought in a total of more than
$22 million in additional grants beyond the initial award from the Lilly Endowment, with $4
million received in the current period and an additional $58 million in pending grants.
According to a new report by the US Science Coalition, “When public money is invested in
university-based basic research there is tremendous return on investment. Research creates
jobs directly for those involved and indirectly for many others, through innovations that lead to
new technologies, new industries and new companies.” The report sites institutions such as PTI
that bring large sums of federal grants into the area as contributing positively to an area’s
overall economy. It also explains how investment in basic research pays off in economic terms
and contributes to a region’s overall success in business and industry as well as scientific
competitiveness. We encourage individuals to read the complete findings of the report at
http://www.sciencecoalition.org/successstories/index.cfm but the box below provides some
important highlights from the report. Key excerpts from this report are shown below:

Facts about Basic Research and the Innovation Process
59
Direct investment in the economy continues through the now renamed PTI Capital
Development Fund. The IURTC holds the investments in six companies for the benefit of the
PTI Capital Investment Fund. Investments have been made at various times since 2003 per
recommendations by an advisory board. Investments have included promissory notes,
common stock, preferred stock and LLC units. All investments are in private, non-publicly
traded companies. Investments have been made in six companies:
 Anabas, Inc.
 CareGuide (formerly Haelan)
 ChartLogic (formerly DynoMed)
 Precise Path Robotics, Inc. (formerly Indy Robotics LLC)
 SGC Technologies LLC
 Veteris/Veterisoft
The companies in which we have invested, and PTI Capital Investment fund, have felt the
effects of the company. Veteris/Vertetisoft has officially moved from being inactive to simply
being closed and out of business. CareGuide (formerly Haelan) declared insolvency during this
reporting period. However, the value of the PTI holdings in Precise Path Robotics has increased
from $50,000 to a current valuation of $147,000. The value of the stock in Anabas, Inc. held by
IU has risen from $200,000 to $250,000 and IU’s collaboration with Anabas has put it in a
position to win a subcontract on a project with the Air Force Research Lab that is expected to
be worth more than $1,000,000.
Direct engagement in the private sector carries risks and benefits. During this reporting period
we have experienced both the downside of risks (insolvency and closing of two businesses in
which we invested) and the benefits (increased activity and value related to two other
businesses). Action and engagement offer the opportunity to engage, influence, and possibly
succeed in economic development. Inaction holds only the guarantee of failure. Through
support of the Lilly Endowment PTI has been able to engage directly and experience some
success and aid businesses operating in Indiana and the Indiana economy overall. Detailed
reports on PTI Capitol Fund investments follow:
Anabas:

External Relations and Strategic Initiatives
Daphne Siefert-Herron, Manager of Strategic Initiatives
During the period, the Strategic Initiatives Team has had continued success in
bringing news about PTI to the national and regional scientific and lay communities. Articles and news
items about PTI appeared more than 70 times in the popular and technical during the period (a detailed
list can be seen in Appendix 10). One notable achievement during the period was the launch of our new
Inside PTI newsletter early in 2010. The newsletter is produced every two weeks and includes short
blurbs about PTI employees, research, and other information such as conferences and funding
opportunities that are interesting or useful to the PTI community. The publication has been very popular
and has been requested by individuals not employed by PTI who also find the information useful. The
goal of the newsletter is to foster and increase collaboration and share institutional knowledge by
keeping the entire PTI community informed about what each of our leading edge research teams is
working on and accomplishing.
Inside PTI was compiled and edited by our communications intern, Doug Hungerford prior to his
graduation in May. The Strategic Initiatives group has since hired a new intern, Helen Russick, a Junior
majoring in Journalism at IU Bloomington. Helen is an accomplished writer, bringing experience from
prior internships with the Indiana State Legislature and the Indianapolis Museum of Art. She is now
serving as the new editor of Inside PTI. To see the current and archived issues of Inside PTI, visit
http://pti.iu.edu/inside.
Also during the reporting period, the Strategic Initiatives team saw a change in leadership for the PTI
Web site. Barbara O’Leary left PTI to pursue other interests in May and her role as PTI Web Coordinator
was taken over by Peg Lindenlaub. Peg is a longtime employee of Indiana University in the Research
Technologies division. Her technical and institutional knowledge has proven invaluable, both for the PTI
Web site and in her role as editor for our internationally distributed publication on high performance
computing, the CI Newsletter.
The Strategic Initiatives team, with the support of our videographer, Jonathan Morrison has brought to
life several more video productions during the reporting period. They present a lay-audience friendly
overview of many of our projects including the LEAD II/Vortex2 tornado research project at
http://pti.iu.edu/video/vortex2, and important software releases XMC Cat
http://pti.iu.edu/video/xmccat and Twister http://pti.iu.edu/video/twister. One of the most impressive
videos of the period is on the CACR project Ethical Technologies in the Homes of Seniors project
http://newsinfo.iu.edu/asset/page/normal/8472.html. The videos have been well-received and run by
several of the media outlets we commonly work with, as they are increasing video features in their
publications and Web sites. Video has proven to be a cost-effective way to reach a broader audience
and educate the public about technology. We intend to produce an ever greater volume of video
content in the coming period.
The Strategic Initiatives team is currently busy working on several projects that will come to fruition
during the coming reporting period. One is planning for our second international academic conference,
CloudCom 2010 which will take place in December in Indianapolis. The conference will gather many of
the top research scientists working in advanced computing today and it is a notable honor that IEEE
selected Indiana University to host this prestigious event. Also during the period, we completed work on
63
a new booklet about the Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research and began work on similar booklets
for the other two PTI centers that will be completed during the coming period. Our team is also busy
planning the PTI/Indiana University display at the annual Supercomputing Conference taking place in
November in New Orleans.

XI.
Educating the Residents of Indiana and Beyond
Daphne Siefert-Herron, Manager of Strategic Initiatives
Pervasive Technology Institute remains committed to educating the residents of Indiana and
beyond about the value of advanced technology to a healthy, educated and productive society.
During the reporting period, PTI hosted or participated in numerous events and activities that
bring technology concepts to a broader audience. This has also been a busy period planning for
our busy summer outreach season, which includes numerous technology summer camps and
other educational activities for Hoosier children and teens. Also during the reporting period, the
Center for Applied Cybersecurity Research began planning for an early fall launch of a new
educational program to air on the Bloomington National Public Radio affiliate entitled, Security
Matters. The program will help to educate the public on how to use technology safely and
securely in their homes
and businesses. CACR
along with members of
the PTI Strategic
Initiatives team began
producing related video
content for the series
during the period.
Highlights of
educational outreach
during the reporting
period are:

used in scientific research such as astronomy and how these computers differ from
ordinary desktop computers. The workshop was designed by Kurt Seiffert of the
Research Technologies Systems group.
In April, PTI offered another very popular event at Wonderlab developed by members of
the Research Technologies Advanced Visualization Lab (AVL). Members of the AVL
produced a video showing various 3D animation techniques and explaining how 3D
video is produced. During the program, the group made contacts with several area
science teachers who are interested in having the program repeated in their classrooms
in the fall.
The OSL helped coach a middle-school team that participated in the Game On event,
one of several competitions held during the Indiana State Science Olympiad held on the
65
campus of IU-Bloomington in March. Game On had students compete to create a
computer game in a fixed length of time, using the open source Scratch software
(http://scratch.mit.edu/). The students learned the basics of modern, object-oriented
computer programming and even simple uses of concurrent programming with
message-passing.

Appendix 11: Glossary of Technical Terms Used in this Report
Cloud computing/technologies: (from Wikipedia) Internet-based computing, whereby shared
resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand,
like the electricity grid.” Cloud computing supports research and business by providing a single
access point to numerous computational resources that lie “in the cloud” without requiring that
the user know or understand the complex technology that is supporting them. Businesses such
as Google and Amazon are already heavily relying upon cloud computing to support their
business and are proving it to be a critical emerging technology. Cloud computing is largely
believed to be the dominant emerging computational paradigm for the coming decades.
Compilers: sets of code that convert source code written in one programming language into
another programming language in order to improve software performance.
Data at Scale: Massive data sets that require specialized tools and software to effectively
manage and find meaning within them.
Generic programming: a type of computer programming that uses non-specific basic
instructions that can be tailored later to specific projects, saving time and reducing redundancy
when writing code.
Multicore computers: computers with two or more central processing units. Many computers
produced today are multicore, to allow for increased performance and computational speed
when paired with effective software programs.
Open Source Software: Software with source code that is free and open to the public and that
may be adapted for individual use.
Science Gateways and Portals: web-based access points and tools that make it easier for
scientists to use advanced computing technology by greatly reducing the amount of
computational expertise required to run experiments using supercomputers and other
advanced technology.
