Processing, management and distribution of scientific data:
- ingest : reading scientific format, extracting metadata, inserting into a database
- searching : SOAP front-ends to search the database (both client and server)
- browsing : web-based front ends to view browse products for the data
- federated searching : search aggregation to search multiple archives from a single interface, and query translation at each archive
- monitoring : making sure that the various processes (seem to be) running correctly
- ordering : user makes a request, we generate tarballs/zip files on the fly, or save to disk and notify them where it is
- reporting : generating metrics on usage (and some inputs need major cleaning first)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
