  10. National Projects The Cracow Telemedicine Centre (where CYFRONET is one of the principal partners) has performed research in different telemedicine fields for years, helping many hospitals and health centres secure better medical services. The Centre has had many achievements in the development and implementation of IT solutions for different projects sponsored by the Polish Ministry of Science, as well as by EU 5FP. MAN PIONIER:Polish Optical Internet -Advanced Applications, Services and Technologies for Information Society. PIONIER program has triggered many supporting activities, (such as e-Polska, Wrota Polski, etc.) aiming at building the base mechanisms of information society and providing Poland for equal partnership opportunities with other countries. Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  11. National Projects (contd.) High Performance Computing and Visualization with the SGI Grid for Virtual Laboratory Applications - the SGI Grid project aims to design and implement: MAN • state-of-the-art, broadband services for remote access to expensive laboratory equipment • backup computational center • remote data-visualization serviceThese services will be based on the national HPC infrastructure and advanced visualization. PROGRESS stands for Polish Research On GRid Environment for Sun Servers. It started as a grant co-financed by the Polish State Committee for Scientifc Research and Sun Microsystems Poland. The grant involved three research institutions: Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center, Academic Computer Centre Cyfronet AGH and Technical University of Lodz, and lasted since December 2001 until December 2003. Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  12. National Projects (contd.) MAN CLUSTERIX - this project contains the concept of building the National Cluster of Linux Systems, a distributed PC-cluster (or metacluster) of a new generation. Its implementation makes it possible to deploy a production-class Grid environment, which consists of local PC-clusters with 64- and 32-bit architectures, located in geographically distant independent centers. The management software (middleware) being developed will allow dynamic changes in the hardware configuration. This project is being implemented by 12 Polish supercomputing centers and metropolitan area networks (MANs), with the Technical University of Czestochowa as the project coordinator. Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  13. International Projects with the financial support of the European Commission • 5th Framework Program • CYFRONET involved into various 5 projects • Already finished • 6th Framework Program • Cyfronet participates in 3 Grid projects • About 10 new proposals have been submitted in September 2005 to the EC Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  14. Research Projects in the 5th Framework Program Successful CrossGrid Final Review. The EU IST CrossGrid Project IST-2001-3224 had its Final Review on February 16-17, 2005 in Amsterdam. The results of the Project were demonstrated at the European Grid Conference in a series of technical talks and live demonstrations of applications, software services and tools, deployed on the CrossGrid testbeds. More the results were appreciated by the audience, by the EU Project Officer and by the Reviewers; all internal deliverables and presentations concerning technical, managerial and exploitation issues were approved. The Final CrossGrid Review concluded successfuly. About 200 persons from 21 institutions, representing 11 countries, contributed to the Project.CYFRONET was a Coordinator of the project.

GRIDSTART - this project clusters all of the 5FP IST-funded Grid research projects with the intention to stimulate wide deployment of appropriate technologies and to support early adoption of best practices. PELLUCID- A Platform for Organizationally Mobile Public Employees. The project is coordinated by the Council for the Central Laboratory of the Research Councils, RAL, UK, with two academic partners: CYFRONET and the Institute of Computer Science AGH. PRO_ACCESS - The ImPROving ACCESS of Associated States To Advanced Concepts In Medical Informatics (PRO-ACCESS) project focuses on creating a platform for promotion, dissemination and transfer of advanced health telematics concepts and experiences from development and deployment of telemedicine solutions to NAS. Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  18. Research projects in the 6th Framework Program CoreGRID - the CoreGRID Network of Excellence (NoE) aims at strengthening and advancing scientific and technological excellence in the area of Grid and Peer-to-Peer technologies. K-Wf Grid - Knowledge-based Workflow System for Grid Applications - addresses the need for a better infrastructure for the future Grid environment. The Grid as a vast space of partially-cooperating, partially-competing Grid services will be a very dynamic and complex environment. In order to address the complexity in using and controlling the next generation Grid, the consortium will adopt the approaches envisioned by semantic Web and Grid communities in a novel, generic infrastructure. The K-Wf Grid system will assist its users in composing powerful Grid workflows by means of a rule-based expert system. Cracow Grid Workshop, November 20-23, 2005

  22. 6th Framework Program (contd.) EGEE -Enabling Grids for e-Science in Europe - the most prestigious of all 6FP Projects, aims to integrate current national, regional and thematic Grid efforts in order to create a seamless European Grid infrastructure for the support of the European Research Area (ERA). The EGEE project is coordinated by CERN. CYFRONET, together with ICM (Warsaw) and PSNC (Poznan), form a Regional Operations Centrefor the Central European Grid Consortium, comprising Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. EGEE Regional Operations Center (ROC) for Central European (CE) Federation is one of the several centers which comprise the European Grid Support, Operation and Management activity of EGEE. This activity's role is to create, operate, support and manage a production quality European grid infrastructure which will provide computing, storage, instrumentation and informational resources at many resource centres (RCs) across Europe.
