Purdue University Application Deep Dive

Abstract

In May 2019, staff members from the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC) met with researchers at Purdue University for the purpose of a campus-wide Application Deep Dive. The goal of this meeting was to help characterize the requirements for two research labs on campus, and to enable cyberinfrastructure support staff to better understand the needs of the researchers they support. Material for this report includes both written documentation from the 2nd Annual Symposium for Research Data Technology at Purdue University, but also a writeup of the discussion that took place in person on May 31st, 2019. The Case Studies highlighted the ongoing challenges that Purdue University has in supporting aspects of the research community that are relatively new to the available technology support structures.
