Reports from NSF Cyberinfrastructure Advisory Group
Task F
The final versions of the six reports from the task forces
established by the NSF Advisory Committee for Cyberinfrastructure are
now available. I've shared earlier pointers to drafts of a couple of
these, but this page points to the final, "official"
versions. The reports are here:

From the introductory material on the page:
In 2009 the
NSF-wide Advisory Committee for Cyberinfrastucture (ACCI) established
six task forces to investigate long term cyberinfrastructure
issues:
*
Campus Bridging
*
Cyberlearning and Workforce Development
*
Data and Visualization
*
Grand Challenges
* High
Performance Computing
* Software
for Science and Engineering
These task forces were each led by ACCI members and their membership
included a cross section of members from both academic and industrial
communities. Over a two year period the task forces gathered broad
community input via open workshops and meetings, solicitation of white
papers, and other outreach efforts. Each task force subsequently
discussed and generated a final report containing recommendations and
ideas for advancing cyberinfrastructure in support of NSF
research.
The
recommendations of each task force were discussed in depth during the
December 2010 ACCI meeting, and the final reports were approved by the
ACCI on April 1st 2011.
Disclosure: I was a member of the Campus Bridging Task Force, and
also contributed to the report on Data and Visualization.
