  8. 125M€ FP6 58M€ From FP5 to FP6 Grid research funding more than doubles FP5 1998-2002 2002-2006 IST-FP6 commitment to Grid research • CPA 9 actions launched in IST-FP5 • Proposals under Selection from IST-FP6 Call 2 Strategic Objective“Grids for Complex Problem Solving”

  9. Grids for Complex Problem Solving Architecture, design and development of the next generation Grid Enabling application technologies DG IST - F2 Research Infrastructure Deployment of specifichigh performance Grids Deployment of high-capacity and high-speed communications network - GEANTDG IST - F3 Grid Research and Deployment in FP6 Application-orientedStrategic Objectives e.g. eBusiness, eGov, eWork, eHealth, risks management R&D Research & Development Deployment 125 M€ (IST) Technology-orientedstrategic objectives e.g. semantic web, software and services 200 M€ RI R&D

  10. The Challenge (1)Complexity - Interoperability - Ease of Use - ... Complex Systems Evolution of HPCN Next Generation Grids Global Grid Services Infrastructure? Current Grids Empowering AmI Evolution of the Web Global Computing

  11. Industry& Business Grids e-Science The Challenge in FP6 (2)Moving Grid from e-Science to Industry Promote Grid research to • Solve new complex problems with high economic and societal impact • Exploit the potential of Grids beyond e-Science

  12. Next Generation Grid(s): 3-fold vision Expert Group Report: “Next Generation Grid(s) - European Grid Research 2005 - 2010”, June 2003 Abstraction Simplification • End-user empowerment • Life-support to business processes NextGenerationGrids • Continuously changing requirements • Grid services development environments Software vision End-UserVision Architectural Vision • Societal behaviour (millions of self-organising nodes) • Computational semantics, ontologies, meta-descriptions • Pervasive virtual organisations Virtualization

  13. Next Generation Grid(s):Identified Research Themes Expert Group Report: “Next Generation Grid(s) - European Grid Research 2005 - 2010”, June 2003 Properties Open Reliable ScalablePersistent TransparentPerson-centric Pervasive Secure / trusted Standards-based Research Themes NextGenerationGrid(s) Facilities Models User Interface Grid Economies Business models Virtual Organisation Systems Management Co-ord. and orchestrationInformation representation

  17. TENTATIVE INFORMATION IST - Call 3 • Opening Date:22.05.2004 • Closing Date:22.09.2004 • Total indicative budget:~70 million Euro • To expand the scope of FP6 actions already under way to cover new activities which are expected to involve new participants from the new Member States of the EU and the Associated Candidate Countries • To improve partnerships with small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) by expanding the scope of FP6 actions already under way • To increase co-operation with partners from target countries for international co-operation (INCO) e.g. Latin America, India, China • To progress towards the achievement of the objectives of a European Research Area in a given field • Objectives:

  18. ERA for Grid Research Objectives and Benefits • Overcome fragmentation and dispersion across EU to reinforce impact of national and Community research • Strengthen Europe’s position on Grid Research and its exploitation Requirements endorsed by 10 Member States – July 2003 • Inventory of national and EU initiatives including analysis of strength, weaknesses, gaps and synergies on EU-scale • Establishment of a regular forum on Grid Research of European funding bodies and research leaders • Better co-ordination of fragmented national and EU efforts by putting them in EU context towards achieving critical mass / higher impact on international level • Further investigation on how to best stimulate the development and delivery of production-level / industrial-strength Grid MW • Actions towards broadening the use of Grid beyond eScience towards its use in business and industry Implementation to be supported by SSA GridCoord

  19. Workshop: Establishing a European Approach towardsDelivery of Industrial Strength GRID Middleware – Jan 04 • Motivation: • Need to improveexploitationof EU research results and commercial impact • IdentifyEU requirementsin view of UK-OMII • Reflect onEU-wide approachestowards standardisation & international co-operation Conclusions: • Open SourceSoftware built using proven distributed software engineering & process modelsis an economically viable approach facilitating further exploitation & innovation • Appropriate licensing models needed • Software quality standards should be enhanced in FP6 projects • Gridinfrastructures need to address security, identity management, certification. • Create an industry association to build Grid-infrastructures (“Grid commons”) • Build (de-facto) standards through critical mass - developer & user communities • More effective participation of EU Industry to standardization needed (GGF,OASIS, W3C,…)
