Participants will discuss key questions related to data management, and identify innovative technologies and best practices that researchers should consider adopting. Organizations including Ebay/Paypal, NASA, SGI and IDC will present commercial use cases; the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory will discuss examples from bioinformatics, imaging based science, and climate change research.
