The concept of Coordinated Data Analysis Workshops (CDAWs) have proved to be extremely successful in bringing together data and people with various expertise/instrument background to attack selected problems. Typical preparation for the CDAW consists of identifying relevant data from a wide variety of sources (solar, interplanetary, magnetospheric and climatary), accumulating the data and gathering the software tools. Participants in the workshop are expected to do a lot of preprocessing and deposit their data or models prior to arriving at the workshop, which will be jointly analyzed to produce scientic results. Additional conferences may be scheduled at a later date, which will allow a venue for scientic talks on the CDAW results and associated science. In this paper, we summarize the evolution of CDAW activities in the recent past and how this experience may be benecial for the activities associated with the International Heliophysical Year.
