E-Science is concerned with the automation of tools for the analysis of data via location-independent computing; there is currently an explosion in the volume of data produced in scientific research, and a corresponding proliferation in the formats and services that supply the data; this pathway integrates different tools for managing and interpreting this data and especially deals with the application of location-independent computing to the analysis of the data; this form of computing is known as cloud or grid computing and has produced demanding and novel challenges in the engineering of distributed systems; this pathway is centred around an e-science theme and is combined with a choice of closely related yet complimentary themes, namely learning from data, data management, concurrency, and advanced web technologies.
