Abstract :
Motivated by the premise that heterogeneity of software applications and hardware systems is here to stay, we are developing OASIS, a flexible, extensible, and seamless environment for scientific data analysis, knowledge discovery, visualization, and collaboration. We discuss our OASIS design goals and present the system architecture and major components of our prototype environment
