For your reference, I attach the letter of intent. In addition, discussion with Reagan at SC99 focused nicely on the question of creating tools for mapping between scientific and learning information models. It seems to me that we have computer science strengths in the portal and information systems areas of PACI that you represent as well as in the learning/cognitive area represented by CILT. We have the EOT partners who are experienced in developing instances of rich web based artifacts for education. We have excellent computational science content from the applications and enabling technology teams. Some questions related to the work plan: (1) How do we focus and sharpen the CS research activities within the framework we have outlined. (2) What role do you want to play? -- can you participate as co-PI's? (3) How can we best use our experience (in EOT) to help with the design of a scalable portal. What is the relation to existing artifacts like biology workbench and chemviz. .... -- best, Roscoe ============== Can you both please verify that you can make this telecon time... -- thanks, Roscoe -------------------------------------------- Professor Roscoe C.
