The drivers for using distributed computing and data resources are emerging from many science domains and have been documented through several recent Department of Energy (DOE) workshop reports. The increased usage and availability of geographically distributed computing and storage resources also highlight the need for easy-to-use tools and procedures that can support the paradigm of distributed computing and data management transparently. Aiming to meet each laboratory’s programmatic needs, a variety of computing resources are available throughout the DOE complex under various access policies, operating systems, and hardware configurations. However, today no straightforward mechanisms or policies exist for a given researcher or group of researchers to easily access resources at different locations across the DOE laboratory system. At the same time, DOE research programs have supported the research and development of technologies and tools that could enable researchers to access distributed data and computing resources globally. Academic and industry activities have also developed mechanisms for the distributed federation of resources. We observe that such existing capabilities can be harnessed to create mechanisms that enable researchers to work seamlessly across facilities.
