+The strategy of the Airavata framework is a minimalist architectural design -
a conceptually simple to understand modular, componentized software - which is
easy to install, maintain and use. This service oriented architecture helps
Apache Airavata to blend into diverse software systems. Early adopters of
Apache Airavata includes Science Gateways which integrate applications,
workflows, data collections with computational resources like Extreme Science
and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE), The National Energy Research
Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).
+
This page provides a sample set of projects using Apache Airavata. Please note
that this list if not comprehensive by any means and only to give ideas on
possibile integrations. If you are aware of such projects built over Airavata,
we would appreciate if you could communite the same by posting the project
details to Users of Dev [Mailing Lists](/community/mailing-lists.html).
+## BioVLab
+
+The Biology Virtual Collaborative Labs (BioVLAB) provides reconfigurable cloud
computing workbench built using Apache Airavata tools to execute workflows on
Amazon EC2 resources. The BioVlab project developed workflows include:
+* Protein Sequence workflow
+* MicroArray Workflow
+* microRNA and mRNA Integrated Analysis (MMIA)
+* Methylation profiling of genomes containing methylated CpG sequences.
+
+Airavata helps BioVLab workbench lower the barriers of setting up and
maintaining computational resources and building and configuring bioinformatics
tools and databases.
+
+More details about the project can be found on [BioVLab Project
Website][biovlab-web].
+
+## DES-SimWG
+
+The simulation working group for the Dark Energy Survey Dark Energy Survey is
using Airavata to develop High throughput workï¬ow environment for
cosmological simulations. The simulations provide support for analysis of
systematics in the three methods associated with large-scale structure (LSS).
The workflows devloped and executed using Airavata tools will assist the
Simulation Working Group with coordinating a Blind Cosmology Challenge (BCC)
process, in which a variety of sky realizations in dierent cosmologies are
analyzed.
+
+Apache Airavata interfaces DES workflows with XSEDE resources to produce
multiple syn- thetic sky surveys of galaxies and large-scale structure in
support of science analysis for the Dark Energy Survey. The Airavata workflow
infrastructure makes it possible to scale executions to level of fifty
1010-particle simulations.
+
+More details can be found of [DES Website][des-web].
+
+## LCCI
+
+The Leadership Class Configuration Interaction (LCCI) project targets to
accurately predict properties of nuclei important for astrophysical and fusion
energy processes. Many of these properties are inaccessible to laboratory
experiments since either the nuclei are highly unstable or the required
experimental precision cannot be obtained. Using computational resources at the
National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), the project has
obtained converged ground state energies and nearly-converged excited states of
several light nuclei using realistic nuclear interactions, and the results
compare favorably with experiment.
+
+LCCI is one of the DOE SciDAC UNEDF programâs collaboration effort and
focuses on Ab Initio and Configuration Interaction computation for nuclear
physics theory. The project unifies, preserves and disseminates and provides a
user-friendly environment to enable calculations planned for extreme-scale
computers and archive the results.
+
+The LCCI project uses Apache Airavata to develop workflow infrastructure to
democratize the access to the nuclear physics simulations executing on remote
supercomputing resources.
+
+More details about UNEDF can be found on the [Website][lcci-web].
+
+## ODI
+
+The One-Degree Imager is a gigapixel mosiac camera being built by WIYN
Observatory with a pixel scale of 0.1 arcseconds for the 3.5-meter telescope.
The ODI camera is an array of 32+2 separate CCD controller with Orthogonal
Transfer Array CCD devices to do real time image correction based on guide star
video streams. From a continuous stream of guide star images, telescope guiding
and atmospheric image aberration can be reduced using real time image shifting
via orthogonal charge transfer on the CCD.
+
+Apache Airavata enables the ODI's Pipeline, Portal, and Archive (PPA) system
to executes the NOAO High Performance Pipeline System (NHPPS) pipelines on
XSEDE resources.
+
+More details about ODI can be found on the [Website][odi-web].
+
+## OLAM
+
+The Ocean Land Atmosphere Model Science Gateway is a collaboration between a
consortium of professors, research scientists and students from the University
of Miamiâs Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, Science
Gateways Group at the Pervasive Technology Institute, Indiana University,
hydrology modelers and water resource managers from the South Florida Water
Management District (SFWMD), and government scientists from NOAAâs Atlantic
Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory.
+
+The project is currently in development and OLAMâs unique, flexible mesh
refinement capability, combined with local high-resolution land surface
characteristics databases and XSEDE computing resources, will make it possible
to generate unrivaled regional climate change projections that can be used to
guide water management decisions in South Florida.
+
+More details about OLAM model can be found on [Website][olam-web].

## ParamChem
-ParamChem project is creating cyberenvironments to automate the process of
parameterization for classical molecular mechanics (MM) and semi-empirical (SE)
Hamiltonians and allow for wide dissemination of the developed parameters. The
Project is developing an extensible cyberenvironment for the rapid and
systematic parameterization of novel Hamiltonians; the systematic extension of
currently available models, with the resulting parameters sets from both. For
more details about the project visit [ParamChem website][pc-web].

ParamChem integrates with Apache Airavata Workflow framework to generate QM
reference data, monitoring parameter optimization and analysis. The
Architecture of ParamChem integration with Airavata and more details are on
[Wiki][pc-airavata-wiki]
Airavata is pleased to leviate ParamChem from Cyberinfrastructure details and
rather focus on developing more accurate descriptions of the static and dynamic
properties of a wide range of material, pharmacological and biological systems
using theoretical methods by simplifying the task of parameter optimization.
This will allow for the generation of high quality parameters for a wide
variety of molecular systems. Improvements in the accuracy of modeling as well
as the range of accessible chemical systems will benefit such fields as
chemistry, nanotechnology, medicine and biology, among others. In addition,
analytical models used in engineering fields such as structural mechanics and
fluid dynamics will become accessible to molecular level treatments.
+For more details about the project can be found on [ParamChem website][pc-web].
+
+## UltraScan
+
+The Ultrascan Laboratory Information Management System provides a user
friendly web inter- face for evaluation of experimental analytical
ultracentrifuge data using the UltraScan modeling software.
+
+The UltraScan Laboratory Information Management System, uses Airavata to
execute analytical ultracentrifugation analysis experiments on XSEDE. These
experiments provide information about biological or synthetic molecules for
experimental biochemists, biophysicists, and material scientists.
