  abstract =     "Collaboration is an effective approach to problem
                 solving. Most large-scale scientific investigations are
                 highly interdisciplinary and collaborative, with
                 project investigators often geographically distributed.
                 For example, ITER [1] is a joint international research
                 and development project that aims to demonstrate the
                 scientific and technical feasibility of fusion power.
                 The partners in the project are distributed in more
                 than ten countries, and it is imperative that they
                 share their creations and findings since greater
                 advances are only made with collective efforts.
                 Similarly, I am participating in the U.S. Department of
                 Energy's SciDAC (Scientific Discovery through Advanced
                 Computing) program [2], which sponsors a dozen
                 high-profile science projects. Each of the project
                 teams involves researchers from several different
                 universities and national laboratories. Clearly, there
                 is an explicit need to provide support for
                 collaborative work. How can these researchers
                 effectively share their data, problem solving
                 strategies, and research findings without time and
                 place constraint? The answer is web-based
                 collaboratories, which have been created for many major
                 science projects. However, most of these
                 collaboratories are simply data repositories with web
                 interfaces. For instance, users do not get to see the
                 associations between data and users, which are as
                 valuable as the data itself. These associations can be
                 large and very complex, and thus hard to comprehend.
                 Visualization can play a key role in both knowledge
                 discovery and managing potentially complex and
                 high-dimensional collaborative workspace. I have been
                 thinking about how to address the need to support
                 collaborative data analysis and visualization, and how
                 to direct the visualization research community towards
                 the development of such needed technologies. I am going
                 to describe some of the ongoing efforts to facilitate
                 sharing visualization resources that will provide the
                 eventual support for the kind of collaborative
                 workspace I have in mind.",
