	Description:
	The HPC Challenge honors participants for innovative uses of high performance computing resources. It provides opportunities for contestants to showcase applications and platforms. The categories are: Most Innovative Data-Intensive Application: With the increasing ability to create, store, and re-access larger and larger datasets, one thing remains constant: the importance of mining such data to glean useful pieces of knowledge. The award will be presented to the entry that uses the most novel and/or inventive approaches in mining data, visualizing data, or a combination of these tasks. Most Geographically Distributed Application: As the Grid continues to decrease the virtual distance between computers around the world, the ability to solve challenging computational problems with combinations of diverse system architectures is continuing to strengthen. The award will be presented to the team with the most geographically distributed application to solve a significantly complex problem. This session will allow teams to present their projects to the SC03 audience and the HPC Challenge judges. The actual award will be made at the Awards plenary session on Thursday.

	Description:
	We plan to demonstrate various applications from natural language processing (Melbourne University) and particle physics (Belle collaboration: KEK-Japan and School of Physics@Melbourne) to portfolio analysis (Complutense University of Madrid). For each application area, we developed a data catalogue directory and remote databases (e.g., protein data banks) access mechanism along with a brokering system (Gridbus Data-Grid scheduler). Applications will make use of real-world distributed data-sets. Eg, high-energy physics demonstration will utilise datasets generated from the Belle experiment particle generator/detector based at the KEK Laboratory in Japan.

	Description:
	DataSpace is an example of a data web, a web services based framework for exploring, visualizing, analyzing, and mining remote and distributed data. DataSpace employs a specialized internet protocol called the DataSpace Transfer Protocol or DSTP for accessing data, metadata, and keys, and for common operations such as range queries, sampling etc. We show that this mechanism is practical and provides a good foundation for distribued data mining and visualization by demonstrating DataSpace applications involving bioinformatics data, census data, and astronomical data. We also show that DSTP can be integrated easily easily into third party data analysis and data mining applications such as R and D2K. Finally, we show that this approach can scale to very large remote and distributed data sets. We have integrated our open source DSTP Servers with specialized high performance protocols, such as SABUL, which can work effectively with data over networks with high bandwidth delay products.

	Description:
	fastDNAml is a well-established parallel program for inference of phylogenetic relationships based on DNA sequences. PACX is a tool for linking and geographically distributing MPI codes (http://www.hlrs.de/organization/pds/projects/pacx-mpi/) that permits use of distributed MPI applications across heterogeneous systems with the use of multiple, vendor- or system-specific optimized MPI libraries. We will use with Dimemas to predict the performance of the application implemented across the grid created for this project, and will attempt to match the pattern of work distribution to variations in communication speeds across the network to optimize the overall effectiveness of the calculations. Our approach will be to link many supercomputers and workstations across as many continents as possible, using PACX to link fastDNAml so as to solve problems that would otherwise be too large to solve in a reasonable amount of time. Our plan, then, is to simultaneously demonstrate a global-scale distributed computing application and at the same time perform meaningful analysis of an important biological problem.

	Description:
	We present the world's first fully Grid-enabled Knowledge Discovery Platform based on: a) Integrating both Globus (GT3) and Unicore services into the Discovery Net infrastructure, b) Providing a higher level of workflow definition allowing end users to describe abstract knowledge discovery workflows. c) Providing an efficient execution middleware that translates the end users'_ abstract workflows into high performance grid-enabled workflows. d) Providing the infrastructure for distributed workflow warehousing, indexing, querying and retrieval. The end result is an unprecedented collaborative and distributed knowledge discovery platform allowing users to dynamically connect to and integrate data from remote data sources, find and locate suitable data analysis and mining components, schedule the execution of distributed knowledge discovery workflows using the distributed components using standardised grid services, collect and interactively analyse the distributed results, publish the results of the analysis over the grid, and more importantly publish both the abstract and executable workflows that generated such results as grid services that can be modified and executed by their co-workers.

	Description:
	In this collaborative project, many simulations will be spawned and steered by scientists geographically distributed across two continents. We rely on several unique features of RealityGrid that have not been demonstrated before on this scale. Using our malleable checkpoint/restart capabilities, we can checkpoint a simulation running on one system on the Grid, launch clones of this simulation on other systems of different architecture (potentially on a different number of processors), steer the spawned simulations into different regions of parameter space, then monitor and compare their subsequent divergent evolution through on-line visualization. Our integration of RealityGrid visualizations with Access Grid will make it possible for scientists (and audiences) at geographically distant sites to share visualizations of the underlying physical systems and discuss them even while the simulations are in progress. We also showcase the use of Grid services for computational steering, based on our novel implementation of the Open Grid Services Infrastructure (OGSI::Lite).
