Event-driven data management with cloud computing for extensible materials acceleration platforms

Abstract

The materials research community is increasingly using automation and artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate research and development. A materials acceleration platform (MAP) typically encompasses several experimental techniques or instruments to...

Autonomous laboratories for accelerated materials discovery: a community survey and practical insights

“…Finally, to integrate the workflow, information must be communicated at each step, tying together the hardware and software, and physical and digital infrastructure. 9,15–18 Communication in workflows can be automated with fixed or hard-coded linkages, or with application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow better modularity. With a sufficiently expressive and unified level of communication, multiple autonomous workflows could be orchestrated and interleaved ad hoc .…”
