1. International ICFA Workshop on HEP Networking, Grids and Digital Divide Issues for Global e-Science Proposed Workshop Dates: May 23-27, 2005 Venue: Daegu, Korea Dongchul Son Center for High Energy Physics Kyungpook National University ICFA, Beijing, China Aug. 2004 & SCIC Meeting, 1 Oct. 2004, at CERN

2. International ICFA Workshop on HEP Networking, Grids and Digital Divide Issues for Global e-Science • Workshop Goals • Review the current status, progress and barriers to the effective use of the major national, continental and transoceanic networks used by HEP • Review progress, strengthen opportunities for collaboration, and explore the means to deal with key issues in Grid computing and Grid-enabled data analysis, for high energy physics and other fields of data intensive science, now and in the future • Exchange information and ideas, and formulate plans to develop solutions to specific problems related to the Digital Divide in various regions, with a focus on: Asia Pacific, Latin America, Russia and Africa • Continue to advance a broad program of work on reducing or eliminating the Digital Divide, and ensuring global collaboration, as related to all of the above aspects.

3. Sketch of an Agenda • Status of HEP Grids (One day) • LHC(CMS, ATLAS, ALICE, LHCb), CDF/D0, Belle/BaBar, PHENIX, etc. • International Projects: iVDGL, GriPhyN, PPDG, EDG, EGEE, etc. • Digital Divide Perspectives from Major experiments (One day) • LHC/Tevatron Exps/B-Factories/RHIC • Other areas such as ITER, Weather, Earthquake, Bioinformatics, etc. • Network perspectives from each region (One-half to One Day) • National (or regional) representatives from Asia Pacific and also key countries (e.g. Brazil) from other regions: Korea, Japan, China, Australia, other parts in AP / Russia / Brazil, Mexico, other parts in Latin America / South Africa and other parts in Africa / Europe / N.America etc. • Grid Enabled Analysis for LHC (One-half to One Day) • Status of GEA and some perspectives of Grids • Applications of Data Grids and Implications for Future society (Half Day, on the last day) • Ubiquitous Computing (special topic) • Discussion Panels (~1 hour 2nd and 3rd Days; ~2 hours on last day) All Sessions & Tutorials Carried Live Via VRVS; Also Playback

4. Schedule Outline & Logistics • Some Dates • Workshop: May 23-27, 2005 • LOC/International Advisory Committee: September, 2004 • Fixing the agenda: ~September 25, 2004 (8 months ahead) • Sending out letters of invitation: November 20, 2004 (6 months ahead) • Logistics • Number of people expected: ~250 (130 from Korea; 120 from abroad) not counting many graduate students from Korea • Number of invited speakers, panelists: ~ 60 (Includes 10 from Korea) • Venue: Kyungpook National University or Hotel Inter-burgo or EXCO • Kyungpook National University is most preferred. • Hotels : Inter-burgo/Daegu Park & others within 30’ • Inter-Burgo (5 Star, 207 rooms, ~$120) and Daegu Park (4 Star, 135 rooms, ~$100) at same site • Special events, Highlights or Items of special note • Tour and Sightseeing (Historic Gyeongju Area) • Special Performance (Korean Traditional Folksongs and Dances) • Banquet/Reception • ICFA-SCIC Meeting • Several people from Korean Governments will be invited • Advanced Network communities from several regions will be invited to participate

5. Outcomes, Support/Sponsors, Side Meeting Option • Expected Outcomes • Promote Infrastructure buildup in needy areas • Advance Grid or Network initiatives. • New or strengthened collaborations in Grid Enabled Analysis • Support and Sponsors • Some support to help needy students attend will be provided • Sponsors: • Center for High Energy Physics/KOSEF • Kyungpook National University • Ministry of Science and Technology • Korea Information and Strategy Development Institute (KISDI) • Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) • National Computerization Agency (NCA), Advanced Network Forum (ANF), etc. • Options • Meetings of Advanced Network Forum or Grid Forum-Korea would run side by side as parallel sessions (to be discussed with the ANF, Grid Forum-Korea) • In this case, we would need the EXCO for the venue and there will be tutorials; but otherwise there is no plan for tutorials
