EUIG2 at EGEE 2010
EU-IndiaGrid2 will participate at the 5th EGEE User Forum, 12-15 April, Uppsala, Sweden.
Presentation: Molecular and material science: Innovative applications on the grid, Stefano Cozzini, ICTP & EU-IndiaGrid2 Technical Director. Tuesday 13 April 2010 11:00 - 13:00, Room IV
Stefano Cozzini's presentation takes place during a session focussing on Computational Chemistry. Chemical applications on EGEE Grid cover a wide area ranging from quantum dynamics computations for small molecular systems through ab initio simulations up to molecular dynamics studies of huge molecular systems of biological and industrial importance.

Demo: Interoperabilty among gLite and ARC middleware in training grid infrastructures: GRIDSEED testcase
Wednesday 14 April 2010 16:00 - 18:00, Aula
GRIDSEED provides a simple tool to setup up a portable fully fledged gLite grid infrastructure based on virtual machines. It exploits the concept of “grid in a box” providing a self-containing grid that could be easily deployed in any existing infrastructure for training and dissemination purposes. In this work we present a recent effort to include ARC middleware in the original GRIDSEED infrastructure The purpose of the exercise is to provide a training facility where users could learn how two similar grid middleware can interact and have a first knowledge on interoperability issues. GRIDSEED is a key training resource for EU-IndiaGrid project. In this work GRIDSEED has been enhanced in order to be a completed training environment formed by a virtual infrastructure where different grid middleware are inter-operating.
EUIndiaGrid2 is playing an important role in enhancing and increasing Euro-India cooperation on e-Infrastructures through collaboration with key policy players both from the Government of India and the European Commission. EUIndiaGrid2 also works closely with policy initiatives such as e-IRGSP2 and Euro-India SPIRIT
Global networks are the glue that holds together Scientific Research Communities around the world. Networks such as GÉANT (The Pan-European Education and Research Network), TEIN3 (The Trans-Eurasia Information Network) and the NKN (National Knowledge Network of India) are all key to this process.
Two main grids exist in India – the Regional component of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG ) and GARUDA, the India National Grid Initiative. Both initiatives strongly rely on the development of national and international connectivity. In this respect fundamental steps have been taken and impressive targets have been achieved.
