Text of the Challenge Grant



We will have our first design meeting next Tuesday so it makes sense to post the text of the proposal as a shared document. This version contains the narrative for the grant. Two useful components of the document will guide the development. The first is Bryan's stick figure conceptualization of how we will put data in the cloud. The "Analytical Computing Instance" is a compromise name for what the user will configure and see in the cloud. The "instance" is terminology used to describe how clouds are used but seems a strange name. It may change as we get further along.



The second part of the document that will guide our work of course is the schedule. The first part of the grant is time is for setting up design specifications. The two components to be built are the ACI compiler and the web user interface.
