The division conducts research on methods and operates services for data management, data analytics, and the federation of resources such as data storages and HPC-systems. The investigation and development of concepts and tools for deep learning, the exploration of data for the earth system, and a direct, individual user support feed back into development and operations, thus foster the functionality and usability of all services, software, and infrastructures.

The division is the core development partner of the open source software UNICORE (Uniform interface to computing resources).

Groups and Members

AI Consultant Team

The AI consultant team supports scientists from all domains in applying AI methods for their scientific research questions. We are very welcome to not only discuss your questions but also support in the implementation.

Federation Services

The group Federation Services develops software for accessing compute and data resources and securely integrating them into federations. One focus of our work is the development and maintenance of the UNICORE middleware.

Cross-Sectional Team Deep Learning

The Cross-Sectional Team Deep Learning conducts basic and applied research in the field of adaptive multi-layer neural network architectures, focusing on unsupervised and reinforcement learning of complex tasks from very large amount of raw, unprocessed data.

Earth System Data Exploration

The research group Earth System Data Exploration (ESDE) develops innovative methods and tools for the integration and analysis of complex, heterogeneous, and big datasets related to air pollution, weather and climate.

Data Services and Infrastructure

The group Data Services and Infrastructure develops and operates generic data services for publication and sharing, as well as community specific data services. We also operate UNICORE and Cloud services integrated in various federated infrastructures.
