Project Objective & Background • “Expand European DCIs into ICPC countries by supporting the creation of new Desktop Grids for e-Science in those countries and in Europe and by connecting them using the EDGeS bridge technology. Support applications on this expanded infrastructure, disseminate, promote and provide training about this expanded infrastructure and its usage”. • European e-Infrastructure EDGeS connects 100.000 Desktop Grid computers with 150.000 core EGEE and other service Grids, including EELA2, SEE-Grid • Goal of DEGISCO: • Connect non-EU countries (ICPC countries in Europe, Asia and Latin-America) to this European infrastructure • Help them to set-up local Desktop Grids • http://degisco.eu Introduction Author: Robert Lovas, Ad Emmen RI-261561 WP4 version: 3.0 2
International Desktop Grid Federation • Main vehicle for dissemination during the project lifetime and for continuation after the project • Federation is open for organisations and individuals in research and industry • A member organisation • Focal point for DCI/Desktop operators and Application developers • Website: discussion fora, events and workshops • Also supported by EDGI (For European chapter) Introduction Author: Robert Lovas, Ad Emmen RI-261561 WP4 version: 3.0
