What can be done to increase the speed and volume of technology transfer between universities, public and private research centers and laboratories, large enterprises, and small and medium-sized businesses, within your region?
One way to support technology transfer for Big Data is through federation of existing data management systems. The NSF funded project, DataNet Federation Consortium, is exploring three types of federation:
1) Tightly coupled federations, in which name spaces are shared for users, collections, files
2) Loosely coupled federations, which rely upon web services to discover and retrieve relevant information and data
3) Asynchronous federations, in which communication between systems is decoupled through use of a message queue.
These mechanisms are implemented in the integrated Rule Oriented Data System (iRODS) and are used in academia, commercial companies, national collaborations, and international collaborations. A reasonable regional goal would be to explore the types of federation needed for interoperability between the existing data management systems.

Pilot programs with measurable outcomes and clear value adding roles for all parties involved. That is what we are currently putting in place at JICS.
