Excerpt

Cyberinfrastructure (CI), eScience and eInfrastructure are the current terms of art for the networked information technologies supporting scientific research activities such as collaboration, data sharing and dissemination of findings. These are the computational infrastructures that enable, for instance, global climate modelers to compile heterogeneous information sources in order to understand environmental change or the tools that make the massive quantitative data emerging from the Large Hadron Collider into tractable scientific visualizations. Within the US and Europe these ventures have garnered significant momentum in terms of funding and technological development. The greater funding of CI for the physical and biological sciences has led to a proliferation of CI studies in those areas (a bias reflected in our own special issue) with CI studies of humanities, arts, and social sciences growing more slowly. Cyberinfrastructure is heralded as a transformative force, enabling new forms of investigation and cross-disciplinary collaboration. The six articles in this special issue are dedicated to the detailed empirical exploration of CI systems, their development, and the changes that are emerging at the intersection of novel information technologies and everyday research practice. …

Studies of infrastructure stretch much further back, in particular with a lineage emerging from the study of large sociotechnical systems Coutard, O. (ed) (1999) The Governance of Large Technical Systems (London/New York: Routledge), Hughes, Thomas P. (1983) Networks of Power: electrification in Western society, 1880–1930 (Baltimore: John Hopkins University Press), Hughes, Thomas P. (1989) ‘The Evolution of Large Technological Systems’, in Wiebe E. Bijker, Thomas P. Hughes and Trevor J. Pinch (eds), The Social Construction of Technological Systems: New Directions in the Sociology and History of Technology (Cambridge, Massachusetts and London, England: The MIT Press): 51–82. However what Star gave us was a broadening of infrastructure beyond its technological meaning. Following from Becker’s work on Art Worlds Becker, Howard S. (1982) Art Worlds (Berkeley, CA: University of California Press) that explored all the professions and craft-workers tied to art production and dissemination, Star drew attention to the enabling resources and people that often remained invisible or unaccounted in many heterogeneous settings such as nursing, librarianship and technical labor.
