We have conducted research and development of the Cognitive methodology based Data Analysis System (CDAS) which supports researchers to analyze large scale data efficiently and comprehensively. Traditionally, much of data analysis process has been carried out by humans. However, when the scale of data is extremely large, data analysis is beyond the recognition capability of humans. The basic idea of CDAS is that computers execute data analysis instead of humans. In the present study, we showed three necessary functions (Verification and Validation: VV, Data Diagnosis: DD and Synthesis) for the design of CDAS. VV and DD functions are executed on gird computing environment and findings output from these functions are integrated on Synthesis functions. Finally CDAS displayed only useful information to human. We have applied the system to the virtual plant vibration simulator and succeeded in analyzing large scale data reaching to 1TB thoroughly for the first time.
