  1. Foster cohesion, interoperability, cross-fertilization of knowledge, economies of scale • Increase value • Multiply impact EU National RTD efforts in Europe by Kyriakos Baxevanidis

  2. Examples of large National efforts UK - eScience Programme (£80 M) Italy - INFN Grid (25 M Euros) Netherlands - DutchGrid Germany - Unicore plus France - Grid funding approved Ireland - Grid-Ireland Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic - seed funding

  3. Japan US Canada 10 Gbit/s 2,5Gbit/s Є80m EC funding <2,5Gbit/s Current IST effort on Grids • Main on-going projects: DataGrid, EUROGRID, DAMIEN Six new initiatives are starting (GridLab, GRIA, GRIP, DataTAG, EGSO, CrossGrid) ~Є35m IST-funding for above initiatives • - the main underlying connectivity platform

  4. -Links with European National efforts - Links with US projects (GriPhyN, PPDG, iVDGL,…) Applications EGSO CROSSGRID GRIA EUROGRID DATAGRID GRIP GRIDLAB DAMIEN Middleware & Tools DATATAG Underlying Infrastructures Industry / business Science A new IST Grid project space

  5. Major Infrastructure deployments Examples: • Links to National Grid • infrastructures 1. DATAGRID, CROSSGRID, DATATAG (2Gbit/s) Image courtesy DataGrid project Image courtesy EUROGRID project • Infrastructure across • 17 European States • Cross-Atlantic link • Application requirements: • Computing > 20 TFlops/s • Downloads > 0.5PBytes/day • Network speeds at 10Gbit/s • Collaborations of more • than 2000 scientists 2. EUROGRID, GRIP • Infrastructure across • 6 European States • Industrial design, simulations • (as well as scientific applications) • Globus - Unicore interface • Application requirements: • Real-time, Resource brokerage, • Portals, Coupled applications

  6. Major impact to Application Communities • Virtual collaboratories lead to new work models & application community structures. • In IST: • High Energy Physics • Earth & Space Observation • Environment, Weather forecast • Bio-sciences and Health • Industrial design/simulation/visualization • ASP CERN-LHC ESA Bio-Sciences EADS-Aerospace

  7. Commercial Perspectives Grid concepts address industry concerns, like: • Resources ‘on demand’,resourcebrokerage(xSP) • Direct communication between applications / transparent access to each other (P2P) • Internet/distributed computing & simulations (industrial design & verification) • Connection of greater range of access facilities to the internet (the non-PC Internet market) Examples of areas addressed in IST: • ASP services for industrial HPC-service users • Virtual digital studio (film industry) • Distributed computing/simulations for industrial design & verification (automotive, aerospace)

  8. International participation is encouraged in IST A new IST Action-line for year 2002 CPA9:“GRID Technologies & their applications” • Maintain current focus in solving complex scientific application problems - address new disciplines • Interoperability, Standards, Infrastructures Put new emphasis on: • Fast uptake across many industrial & commercial applications (e.g. Peer-to-Peer) • Knowledge Grids (e.g. links to Semantic Web) • Demonstration & Training facilities • Accompanying Measures, Social aspects

  9. Grid-based systems to solve complex application problems Environment Energy Health Transport Industrial Design Internet Large-capacity and high speed communication infrastructures based on Grid-architectures Future EU RTD Framework (y2003-2006) Grid technology
