EGEE: 

EGEE Enabling Grids for E-Science And Industry in Europe EGEE applications network R.P.Middleton GridPP6 – Cosener’s House 30th/31st January 2003

EGEE: 

EGEE The vision of the EGEE Integrated Infrastructure Initiative create & deploy Grid technologies to enable the widespread uptake of e-Science applications throughout the European Research Area. To achieve this vision, EGEE will focus on four key objectives: integrating Grid technological developments from across Europe; establishing a Europe-wide Grid infrastructure for science and industry with a focus on heterogeneity and interoperability; enabling the creation of e-Science applications from across the scientific and industrial spectrum; ensuring the timely delivery of the project’s programme of work, guided by the needs of academic and industrial partners. 2 Years, initially (start 2004) http://egee-ei.web.cern.ch/egee-ei/

Project Features: 

Project Features (as presented by F.Gagliardi at Brussels workshop – Oct02) Integration of existing national and regional initiatives International cooperation (including EU and AP) Standards (through GGF) Actors: Grid developers for academia and industry Tackle the challenge of usability, scalability, cost/performance Service models for fast uptake by industry Must provide supercomputing performance at commodity cost Support for training, usage, large scale applications etc

EGEE: 

EGEE “Giving Europe the edge on Grid Research Infrastructures” Workshop Brussels October 2002 EU call on 17th Dec 02 Programme : Structuring the European Research Area Area : “Communication Network Development – Grids” Indicative budget €50M (shared over accepted proposals) http://www.cordis.lu/fp6/infrastructures.htm May add/remove partners without prior EU approval Stricter legal implications of contract than FP5 Emphasis is on deployment & production NOT Grid R&D !
