THE IMPERATIVE
• Financial - Global financial crisis and spike in the price of fuel
• Synergy - Opportunities for coordination and partnerships
• Environment - Improved environmental performance
• IPY Legacy - Preserving and Building on the Legacy of the IPY

“Scientists from the RAND Corporation have created this model to illustrate how a “home computer”
could look like in the year 2004. However much of the needed technology will not be feasible for the
average home. Also the scientists readily admit that the computer will require not yet invented technology
to actually work, but 50 years from now scientific progress is expected to solve these problems.”…

THE ART OF FUTURE GAZING
• Innate uncertainties in predictions
• Investments in science are national enterprises
• Processes for setting scientific priorities are highly variable
• Future directions are dependent on the outcome of “in-progress” research
• Trajectories can be non-linear or even discontinuous – technology and science can be decoupled

• Data are a valuable and irreplaceable resource
• Computers are ubiquitous in Antarctic science
• Computer usage will not only continue but accelerate in the future
• Increasing demands for computing infrastructure and support
![Page 29: 1 FUTURE DIRECTIONS IN ANTARCTIC SCIENCE IMPLICATIONS FOR NATIONAL PROGRAMS BY MAHLON CHUCK KENNICUTT II PRESIDENT SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE ON ANTARCTIC RESEARCH.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5514ada0550346b2598b6106/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DATA AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
(cont.)• Enhancement of the existing DIM
infrastructure will be needed to effectively discover, access, use, store, archive and protect data
• The next generation DIM system must be interoperable with other global infrastructures and initiatives
• Observing systems and networks require computers for the analysis of large data sets
• Future scientific demands will require an Antarctic Data Management System and the role of DIM in support of science will grow significantly

CONCLUSIONS
• The future is often unpredictable• Scientific ideas and societal issues
will drive future research directions • Research will become more
complex, holistic, interdisciplinary, international, technology intensive, and often require continent-wide solutions
• Data and Information system demands will increase
• There are great opportunities for coordination, partnerships, and synergy
The future is in our hands!
