Drug discovery is a complex process with many potential pitfalls. To go to market, a drug must undergo extensive preclinical optimization followed by clinical trials to establish its efficacy and minimize toxicity and adverse events. The process can take 10-15 years and command vast research and development resources costing over $1 billion.

The curation and preservation of scientific data has long been recognized as an essential activity for the reproducibility of science and the advancement of knowledge. While investment into data curation for specific disciplines and at individual research institutions has advanced the ability to preserve research data products, data curation for big interdisciplinary science remains relatively unexplored terrain.

Modern oscilloscopes, digitizers and data loggers generate a large amount of waveform data for long-duration waveform capturing and analysis. The contrast of time scales of long-duration waveform capturing (e.g., hours or days in high sampling rate) and analysis (e.g., signal fragments of several microseconds) produces unique big data challenges.
