MacroscopesDecision making in science, industry, and politics, as well as in daily life, requires that we make sense of datasets representing the structure and dynamics of complex systems

Macroscopes provide a vision of the whole, helping us synthesize the related elements and enabling us to detect patterns, trends, and outliers while granting access to myriad details

Rather than making things larger or smaller, macroscopes let us observe what is too great, slow, or complex for the human eye and mind to notice and comprehend

CIShell

• CIShell (http://cishell.org) is an open source software specification for the integration and utilization of datasets, algorithms, and tools

• It extends the Open Services Gateway Initiative (OSGi) (http://osgi.org), a standardized, modularized service platform

• CIShell provides “sockets” into which algorithms, tools, and datasets can be plugged using a wizard-driven process
