  22. CrossGrid and DataGrid are joining their Dissemination efforts… EU 2nd Year Review – 04-05 Jan. 2003 – Dissemination & Exploitation – n° 22

  23. DataGrid – CrossGrid I&RF The Industry and Research Forum is an initiative undertaken in the framework of the dissemination plan of the European DataGrid and CrossGrid projects. The I&R Forum is aimed at accelerating the adoption of the Grid technologies in eScience and eBusiness. Why a common forum?  …DataGrid and CrossGrid together represent the great majority of the European Countries  ..the two projects share a common middleware  ..several people are working on both the projects so gaining a common experience in the management of Grid computing testbed  .. CrossGrid extends the implementation of DataGrid middleware to new applications  …CrossGrid will develop and support the DataGrid results beyond DataGrid life-time Next week in Santiago de Compostela… EU 2nd Year Review – 04-05 Jan. 2003 – Dissemination & Exploitation – n° 23
