DESCRIPTION:Dr. Pierre Villars\, MPDS Vitznau\, Switzerland\nas well as th
 e Integration of a large Inorganic Materials Reference Data System\nConfro
 nted with the explosion of computing power\, as well as materials data inf
 ormation Gray proposed in 2009 the Fourth Paradigm of Science: Data-Intens
 ive Discovery through Data Exploration (eScience)\, which means to electro
 nically unify experiment\, theory and computation. The executive office of
  the president National Science and Technology Council of the United State
 s has launched mid-2011 the whitepaper Materials Genome Initiative for Glo
 bal Competitiveness having as major aim to shorten the time between discov
 ery of advanced materials and its industrial application by at least a fac
 tor two. In 2014 JST has started a Japanese Project called Materials Infor
 matics\, Materials Design by Digital Data Driven Method. In the same year 
 SNSF (Switzerland) has started the NCCR MARVEL Initiative called Material
 ’s Revolution: Computational Design and Discovery of Novel Materials.\nR
 eflecting these new trends\, many ideas have been proposed to explore new 
 dimensions trying to derive interesting knowledge from a simple collection
  of many data. To show a clear direction for such trends\, it is necessary
  to draw a roadmap by taking advantage of scientific data\, namely in case
  of this publication we select scientific data on materials.\nBio: Directo
 r of the company Material Phases Data System (MPDS) and copyright owner of
  the PAULING FILE.\nCo-designer of the PAULING FILE project and editor-in-
 chief of the PAULING FILE database since its launch in 1995.\nCo-author of
  over 60 scientific publications.\nEditor of CRYSTMET (CISTI\, NRCC\, Cana
 da) from 1988 to 1995.\nEditor or co-editor of Pearson's Handbook of Cryst
 allographic Data for Intermetallic Phases (first\, second and desk edition

  of Ternary Alloy Phase Diagrams\, in total 23 volumes.\nFormerly research
  scientist at the Institute of Solid State Physics\, ETH-Zurich\, Switzerl
 and\, visiting research associate professor at the University of Waterloo\
