EUMEDGrid (Empowering eScience Across the Mediterranean) 2006-2008


http://www.eumedgrid.org

EUMEDGrid aims to provide specific support actions to assist the participation of the states of the  Mediterranean region in the pan-European and worldwide Grid initiatives, thus expanding and supporting the European Research Area (ERA) in the  region. 

The core of the EUMEDGrid approach is to target the objectives of establishing a human network in the eScience area, enlarging and training this community, and establishing a pilot Grid infrastructure supporting proof of concept regional applications. This approach aims to bridge the digital divide between the less-resourced countries and the EU. 
This work will pave the way towards the provision of a transparent and ubiquitous common market  of computing resources to the various research communities in the region. Moreover, the integration  into the wider European infrastructure will provide the research and education community of the  region with access to a much larger pool of storage and computing resources than currently  available in the non-Grid environment.

Project Objectives:
  • The first set of objectives focus on softer actions, with the overall aim of creating a human network  in the area of Grids, eScience and eInfrastructures in the Mediterranean, and promote regional and  international cooperation.
  • The second set of objectives focus the technical aspects and are intended to support, on the basis of an in-deep analysis of local requirements, the implementation of a pilot Grid infrastructure across the Mediterranean and the deployment of a set of test applications on it.
