  1. MARNET-Macedonian Academic and Research Networkin SEE eInfrastructure projects toward ERAMargita Kon-Popovska, MARNET MB GN3/NA3/T4 Campus Best Practice Workshop in Macedonia 15.09.2011

  2. Outline European e-Infrastructures: prospects &projects MARNET and SEE region follow up and results Our achievements/challenges

  3. The e-Science paradigm shift towards a scientific Renaissance Wim Jansen European Commission -DG INFSO Géant and e-Infrastructures

  4. Pan-EU e-Infrastructures vision • The Research Network infrastructure provides fast interconnection and advanced services among Research and Education institutes of different countries’ • Main Initiative: GEANT (GN3 project) • The Research Distributed Computing Infrastructure (Grid, HPC) provides a distributed environment for sharing computing power, storage, instruments and databases through the appropriate software (middleware) in order to solve complex application problems • Main Initiatives: EGI, PRACE (projects) • This integrated environment is called electronic infrastructure (eInfrastructure) allowing new methods of global collaborative research - often referred to as electronic science (eScience) • The creation of the eInfrastructure is a key objective of the European Research Area EGI PRICE GEANT

  5. e-Infrastructures for science…ubiquitous research environments for accessing and sharing resources and tools… Wim Jansen European Commission -DG INFSO Géant and e-Infrastructures

  6. GEANT3 EC FP7 4 year project 95M eur Reinforce policy coordination, innovate in use, extend geographical access

  7. World R&E Communities Connectivity

  8. EGI-InSpire EU FP7 4 years project 25M eur Building and maintaining sustainable European Grid Infrastructure

  9. PRACE - The Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe Germany France Tier(0) CURIE

  10. SEE eInfrastructure activities – timeline: 8 years of close collaboration Network Infrastructure SEEREN1/2: regional inter-NRN connectivity and GEANT links [DGINFSO]  all countries in GN3 2009 (except AL and BA) SEEFIRE: studying the feasibility of long-term solutions for dark fiber backbone in the region SEELIGHT: implementation of the lambda facility in SEE [Greek Hiperb]  sustainable regional network Result: partly sustainable national & regional networks, EC 50% funding for GEANT National dimension crucial: Role of NREN in MK this was UKIM/MARNET with participation of researchers from Institute of informatics www.seeren.org

  11. SEEREN 1&2 Funding: 3,5 M eur, Duration:4,5 year 2004-2009

  12. Services planned/implemented during the SEEREN1#2 projects and beyond

  13. NATO NIG project NATO funding 204.000 eur 1G fiber switches+ 2x32Mbps wireless network Project proposing Projecting Procurement Deployment

  14. GMON-Skopje Gigabit network Austrian Gov. Grant 190.000 eur Proposing Projecting Procurement

  15. Video conferencing Educational Services ViCES Skopje Albania Skopje Skopje Skopje Tetovo Serbia Bitola Stip Network centre TEMPUS vices.marnet.net.mk

  16. SEELight regional project vision HIPERB Hellenic Plan for the Economic Reconstruction of the Balkan SEE-LIGHT: South-East European Lambda Network Facility for R&E Deployment of an advanced regional network infrastructure (lambda network facility) for R&E, 3 countries committed, others in progress SEENet: a management body for SEELIGHT Current status: Project starts in Serbia & is on the way in Bulgaria MK status: Available national 20% funds 300.000 eur (expected FINKI involvement) International & national DWDM interconnectivity

  17. SEE Grid eInfrastructure activities – Timeline: 7 years SEEGRID1/2: building regional Grid infrastructure within and beyond EGEE, building NGIs and user communities [DGINFSO] SEE-GRID-SCI: eInfrastructure for large-scale environmental science user communities: meteorology, seismology, environmental protection. Inclusion of Caucasus. [DGINFSO]  All countries in EGI within the same timeframe as rest of Europe Result: sustainable national Grids, EC funding for EGI like rest of EU (with 67% local funds) HP-SEE: regional HPC interconnection and 2nd generation Caucasus link Expected result: sustainable national HPC centers, long-term sustainable model with PRACE and DEISA, mirroring GEANT/EGI? National dimension crucial: Role of NGI In MK this is MARGI – Macedonian Grid Initiative - with leading role of researchers from Institute of informatics www.see-grid-sci.eu www.margi.marnet.net.mk 2004-2010 year &HP-SEE from 2010

  18. Infrastructure deployment

  19. Distributed responsibilities forInfrastructure management

  20. Infrastructure operations and QoS Core services deployed redundantly, spread out Catch-All Certification Authority + National CAs Operational tools as shown on previous slide Grid Operator on Duty (GOOD), Operations manual Fully interoperable with EGEE, overlapping SLA definition, monitoring and enforcement and corrective actions Overall availability of services 91.17% Job success rate 94,27%

  21. Key results: User communities support Seismology (6 major applications), meteorology (2) and environmental protection (8) Cross-border user communities and beneficiaries Very clear and efficient procedures for support

  22. Seismology VO Seismology VO offers the researchers: Access to seismic data mirrored from national research centers on a timely basis Adequate computing resources close to the seismology data repositories Collaborative working environment with both regional groups and global organizations Core: seismic data server serving large seismic data sets from sensors (TBs) 6 Applications MK Application: Automatic recognition of Earthake locations

  23. Key results: National Grid Initiatives Before SEE-GRID-SCI During SEE-GRID-SCI • Initiating and structuring NGIs • SEE-GRID pioneer of the NGI concept • Significant developments in a number of areas: organisational stability, operational maturity, national-level support

  24. Conclusion: we are going toward successful eInfrastructure, deployment in SEE Seismology, Meteorology, Environment Comp physics, Comp chem, Life sciences User / knowledge layer HP-SEE SEE-GRID 1 & 2 & SCI SEEREN1&2, SEE-LIGHT & BSI & GEANT

  25. SEE eInfrastructure activities – time frame, convergence with EU projects 2013 2014 HP-SEE (50% EC) Pan-EU HPC Initiative? SEE-GRID 1-2-SCI (100% EC – only international inter-connection) EGI (EC 33%) EGEE (Enabling Grid for E- Sciences) 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 GEANT (EC of 50% int. interconnection) GN3 SEELIGHT (0% EC) SEEREN 1-2 (70-80% EC)

  26. SEERA-EI project One step more SEERA-EI: regional programme managers (relevant ministries) collaboration towards common eInfrastructure vision, strategy and regional funds [DGRTD] Core Objective & Expected result: Develop and strengthen the coordination and cooperation of national eInfrastructures programmes in the region of South-East Europe. Ensuring long-term national-level funds and regional funds to complement EC funds

  27. Our achievements/challenges Deploy own eInfrastructure part of the SEE/Europe Be partners in related projects consortiums and so Part of e-Science in SEE and wider

  28. THANK YOU and wish you fruitful work
