Summary on Grant Application Form
Grid based interactions with central crystallography facilities have been developed separately in the UK (CombeChem/e-Bank) and the USA (Reciprocal Net, Collaborative Multi-Scale Chemistry Sciences - CMCS). Initial meetings have demonstrated that these projects have many complimentary features in design and architecture. We propose to collaborate on the formation of an international standards and implementation for grid based data collection, monitor & control of laboratory environment and data services for crystallography. We will achieve these aims efficntly by sharing and integrating the complimentary components of the grid services developed for the EPSRC National Crystallography Service (NCS, UK) and the Smart Labs systems with those of Reciprocal Net and CMCS (USA). We aim to similarly intgrate the disseminations systems of e-Bank and Reciprocal Net and extend these to the new e-science community in Australia.
