Trillian Project Gets Support from Mozilla ScienceLab
Trillian is a new project that aims to be an all-sky, multi-wavelength computational engine for astronomy data. It was selected to be one of the research projects for the Mozilla ScienceLab's Collaborate on Software for Science (http://collaborate.mozillascience.org/projects/trillian), an initiative to bring together software developers and designers and researchers to build new tools for science that was launched on October 9, 2014. This partnership will result in a contribution of developer resources to help build Trillian. Development is also being provided by the DAT project (http://dat-data.com) to help design and build the data access pipeline required in creating a multi-terabyte, distributed astronomical data repository.
Trillian was designed by Demitri Muna and Eric Huff and is supported by CCAPP; more information about Trillian can be found here: http://trillianverse.org and http://collaborate.mozillascience.org/projects/trillian.
