<http://www.nsf.gov/od/oci/CI_Vision_March07.pdf>

<http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2007/nsf0728/index.jsp>

Cyberinfrastructure Vision for 21st Century Discovery is a sweeping call to
reimagine: 1) Cyberinfrastructure resources, tools and related services such
as supercomputers, high-capacity mass-storage systems, system software
suites and programming environments, scalable interactive visualization
tools, productivity software libraries and tools, large-scale data
repositories and digitized scientific data management systems, networks of
various reach and granularity and an array of software tools and services
that hide the complexities and heterogeneity of contemporary
cyberinfrastructure while seeking to provide ubiquitous access and enhanced
usability, and; 2) The preparation and training of current and future
generations of researchers and educators to use cyberinfrastructure to
further their research and education goals, while also supporting the
scientific and engineering professionals who create and maintain these
IT-based resources and systems and who provide essential customer services
to the national science and engineering user community. The vision document
was developed by the National Science Foundation's Cyberinfrastructure
Council.
