A Web service developed by Microsoft Research lets people curate their own personal history - project call "Project Greenwich" launched in Beta in October

Harvard researchers have developed a tool for analyzing large data sets that detects important relationships in data without prior knowledge of their type. The development comes at a time when researchers are being overwhelmed by the vast amounts of data emerging from their labs, and struggling to make sense of them.

a model for a tool registry for digital scholarship?

VIDaaS (Virtual Infrastructure with Database as a Service) is a project of two halves. The 'DaaS' part will develop software that enables researchers to build, edit, search, and share databases online; the 'VI' part involves the development of an infrastructure enabling the DaaS to function within a cloud computing environment. How does it compare to Harvard's plans? is it similar to Dataverse?

Scientific research is increasingly digital. Some activities, such as data analysis, search, and simulation, can be accelerated by letting scientists write workflows and scripts that automate routine activities.

provides access to a comprehehsive set of software packages easing the exploration, modification, comparison, and extension of data mining and information visualization algorithms. Diverse software packages were bundled into learning modules. Access to a large-scale data repository, extensive compute resources, and a growing set of references are provided as well. It is our hope that the community will adopt this resource to foster Information Visualization education and research.
