VO technology offers a way to exploit these to the full but re-\nquires changes in design philosophy. The Palomar-QUEST survey is a\nmajor new survey being undertaken by Caltech, Yale, JPL and Indi-\nana University to repeatedly observe\n1/3 of the sky (\u223c 15000 sq. deg. between \u201327\u00b0 \u2264\n    \u03b4 \u2264 27\u00b0) in seven passbands. Utilising the 48-inch\nOschin Schmidt Telescope at the Palomar Observatory with the 112-CCD\nQUEST camera covering the full 4\u00b0 x 4\u00b0 field of view, it will generate\n\u223c 1TB of data per month. In this paper, we review the design of QUEST\nas a VO resource, a federated data set and an exemplar of VO standards.",

Many exciting astrophysical phenomena are known in the time\ndomain: all manner of variable stars, stellar explosions such as SNe and GRBs,\nvariable AGN, pulsars, microlensing events, etc. Yet undoubtedly many more\nremain to be discovered.\nA number of surveys and experiments exploring the time domain are already\nin progress (see, e.g., [5,6] for listings), and even more ambitious synoptic sky\nsurveys are being planned, e.g., [7,8].
