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.
