What is CERN? CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear Research The world's largest particle physics laboratory explores what matter is made of, and what forces hold it together Founded in 1954 (50 years last year!) One of Europe's first truly international joint ventures Now includes 20 Member States ... where the Web was born! www.cern.ch
Distribution of CERN users Formal ties with governments of countries such as Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Morocco, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

In silico drug discovery Diseases such as HIV/AIDS, SRAS, Bird Flu etc. are a threat to public health due to world wide exchanges and circulation of persons Grids open new perspectives to in silico drug discovery Reduced cost and adding an accelerating factor in the search for new drugs • International collaboration is required for: • Early detection • Epidemiological watch • Prevention • Search for new drugs • Search for vaccines
Example: Pharmacokinetis A lesion is detected in an MRI study of a patient – start with virtual biopsy The process requires obtaining a sequence of MRI volumetric images. Different images are obtained in different breath-holds. Before analyzing the variation of each voxel, images must be co-registered to minimize deformation due to different breath holds. The total computational cost of a clinical trial of 20 patients is around 100 CPU days.
Example: Determining earthquake mechanisms Seismic software application determines epicentre, magnitude, mechanism Analysis of Indonesian earthquake (28 March 2005) Seismic data within 12 hours after the earthquake Analysis performed within 30 hours after earthquake occurred Results Not an aftershock of December 2004 earthquake Different location (different part of fault line further south) Different mechanism Rapid analysis of earthquakes important for relief efforts Sumatra, March 28, 2005 Mw=8.5 Peru, June 23, 2001 Mw=8.4

Le cose non sono tuttavia così semplici... L’adozione di Grid da parte del mondo dell’Industria procede più lentamente di quanto potrebbe Recenti indagini di mercato confermano che i “freni” più importanti risultano essere: La Sicurezza Rigidi controlli di accesso a dati e applicazioni e “privacy” per dati sensibili; Gli Standard La loro adozione incoraggerebbe investimenti a lungo termine La Formazione Necessità di offerte formative specifiche per il mondo “business” La Gestione delle License Software Controlli d’uso delle licenze software e protezione delle “revenues” di chi produce software commerciale
