Plataformas de e-Science: Necessidades e desafios para um programa científico para a Amazônia

Abstract

The advancement of information technology has enabled the optimization of processes and maximization of results in various fields, allowing, above all, the fourth industrial revolution which has its pillars in technological innovations, giving rise to the term Industry 4.0. In this context, other areas have also adopted and coined the term "4.0" in new definitions where finalistic activities received important technological support in their conception process, among them scientific pro-duction, which increasingly makes intensive use of technology, especially high-performance computing (HPC), thus giving rise to the term Science 4.0 or e-Science. The present work aims to analyze a set of computational platforms, selected based on criteria such as availability to the Brazilian scientific community and citations in scientific studies, and to identify the com-ponents and characteristics present in them capable of meeting a grouping of conceptual dimensions for the management of scientific data and knowledge produced in the context of a scientific program in the Amazon.
