Abstract
The Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) partnership proposes to develop an unprecedented, comprehensive advanced digital services cyberinfrastructure (CI) to enable transformative open science and engineering research and innovative training and educational programs. The goal of XSEDE is to offer users tremendous capabilities with maximum productivity, enabling them to advance and share knowledge across domains. The XSEDE architecture, engineering, operations, support, and education activities are co-designed by an unparalleled team to achieve this goal, far surpassing TeraGrid in usability, reliability, capability, performance, and security—and ultimately, in user productivity and science impact. This proposal and the accompanying supporting documents detail the results of extensive evaluation and planning by the XSEDE team to build this unique cyberinfrastructure.
