CoreGRID objectives • To build a European-wide research laboratory • Create the European “Grid Lighthouse” and be seen as such worldwide • To achieve integration and sustainability • To build solid foundations for GRID and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technologies • Both on a methodological basis and a technological basis. • Support medium and long term research activities • Achieve and promote scientific and technological excellence within & beyond the Grid research community • Gather and disseminate European research • A think-tank for spin-off projects • EC funded, bilateral projects, … European Research Network on Foundations, Software Infrastructures and Applications for large scale distributed, GRID and Peer-to-Peer Technologies
Network priorities • Excellence • CoreGRID brings together a European critical mass of well-known experts in GRID and P2P research • An ambitious joint program of activities to deal with well identified challenges • Long-term integration & structuring • Set-up a sustainable European research laboratory with an associated management • With several Institutes • With research groups assigned to Institutes European Research Network on Foundations, Software Infrastructures and Applications for large scale distributed, GRID and Peer-to-Peer Technologies
A set of well identified research challenges • Knowledge & Data Management • Handling information/data that are required/produced by a wide range of diverse processing power • Programming Model • Making the programming of Grid infrastructures as simple and transparent as possible • System Architecture • Designing the next generation Grid middleware • Grid Information and Monitoring Services • Scalable information service to implement a service view of the Grid • Resource Management & Scheduling • Scheduling jobs/applications/tasks/computation within a Grid environment • Problem Solving Environments, tools and GRID systems • Integrating various middleware, tools and applications for problem solving European Research Network on Foundations, Software Infrastructures and Applications for large scale distributed, GRID and Peer-to-Peer Technologies
