Cyberinfrastructure and its Role in Science

I recently gave a presentation entitled "Cyberinfrastrucutre and its Role in Science" at IAI International Wireless Sensor Networks Summer School held at the University of Alberta on July 6th, 2009. This presentation examines some of the challenges scientists face and describes various cyberinfrastructure technologies that help address these challenges. Example projects employing cyberinfrastructure technologies that we have worked on at the Grid Research Centre, including the GeoChronos project, are also presented.
