Project Category Description<br />

NorduGrid Middleware Also known as Advanced Resource Connector<br />

(ARC) <strong>the</strong>y provide a reliable implementation <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> fundamental Grid services, such as in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

services, resource discovery and monitoring, job<br />

submission and management, brokering and data<br />

SEE-GRID-2 Infrastructure<br />

TeraGrid Application<br />

UniGrids Application<br />

management and resource management.<br />

The successor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> South-East Europe (SEE)<br />

GRID aims to fur<strong>the</strong>r advance <strong>the</strong> existing infrastructure<br />

and services, to fur<strong>the</strong>r streng<strong>the</strong>n<br />

scientific collaboration and cooperation among<br />

participating SEE communities, and ultimately<br />

achieve sustainability <strong>for</strong> regional and national e-<br />

Infrastructures.<br />

The aim <strong>of</strong> this project is to create an integrated,<br />

persistent computational resource. Currently, TeraGrid<br />

resources include more than 750 teraflops <strong>of</strong><br />

computing capability and more than 30 petabytes<br />

<strong>of</strong> online and archival data storage. Researchers<br />

can also access more than 100 discipline-specific<br />

databases. They claim to be <strong>the</strong> world’s largest,<br />

most comprehensive distributed cyberinfrastruc-<br />

ture <strong>for</strong> open scientific research.<br />

This project develops a grid service infrastructure<br />

based on <strong>the</strong> Open Grid Services Architecture<br />

(OGSA) and on <strong>the</strong> UNICORE grid s<strong>of</strong>tware. The<br />

goal <strong>of</strong> UniGrids is to develop translation mechanisms,<br />

such as resource ontologies, to interoperate<br />

with o<strong>the</strong>r OGSA compliant systems. At <strong>the</strong> same<br />

time UniGrids will target grid economics by developing<br />

a SLA framework and cross-grid brokering<br />

services. The scientific focus is set to be in <strong>the</strong> areas<br />

<strong>of</strong> biomolecular and computational biology, energy,<br />

geophysical depth imaging by oil companies<br />

and reactor safety.
