Symposium Spreads Grid Research Results
The CoreGRID Symposium is considered the premiere European event on Grid Computing for the dissemination of the results from European and member states initiatives as well as other international projects in Grid research and technologies.
CoreGRID gathered key players from European and member states initiatives in grid research, as well as international projects in the field, to disseminate significant research results in grid technologies. These results were presented at the CoreGRID Symposium in Rennes on Aug. 27 and 28. More than 120 participants from research and industry had the opportunity to meet and exchange their experience on all aspects of grid computing, including service infrastructures.
Having been active for three years, CoreGRID is now committed to move further toward sustainable integration and to enhance the economic fall-outs of grid research progress. In particular, the growing involvement of industry representatives will be essential to exploit the full potential of the latest grid research results.
CoreGRID is a Network of Excellence funded by the European Commissions Sixth Framework Program for Research and Technological Development through a grant of €8.2 million assigned for a duration of four years.
Held in conjunction with the Euro-Par 2007 event, the CoreGRID Symposium covered the following topics:
- Service level agreement and quality of service.
- Trust, security and virtual organizations.
- Programming with software components.
- Communication and networking.
- Job, information and resource management.
- Programming methodology.
- Workflow management.
- Data management.
