EPOS use case on top of EGI/EUDAT coupled resources- Misfit analysis

The EPOS use case that will be presented in this session, MISFIT, has the aim to improve the back-end services of an existing Virtual Research Environment in the field of Computational Seismology (https://portal.verce.eu/). The use case enables the processing and the comparison of data resulting from the simulation of seismic wave propagation following a real earthquake and real measurements recorded by seismographs. It will integrate software from the VERCE project (http://verce.eu/), taking advantage of the computing services of the EGI Federated Cloud, using data from EIDA / ORFEUS organization (http://www.orfeus-eu.org/eida/eida.html) stored in an EUDAT B2SAFE instance. The advantage of porting the MISFIT application to the cloud would be to have more flexibility of exploiting a resources-on-demand model supporting the VERCE  data-intensive code, possibly even close to the location where the simulation data and the raw pre-staged data will be. This use case is testing and validating the movement of data from/to the EUDAT infrastructure to/from the EGI Federated Cloud. Data are stored in B2SAFE for long term preservation and staged in the EGI Federated Cloud through B2STAGE to be processed. A short demonstration will be part of this presentation.
