  1. The CoreGRID Network of Excellence European Research Network on Foundations, Software Infrastructures and Applications for large scale distributed, GRID and Peer-to-Peer Technologies Philippe Rohou Administrative & Financial Coordinators ERCIM http://www.coregrid.eu Philippe.Rohou@ercim.org Thierry PRIOL Scientific Coordinator INRIA http://www.coregrid.eu Thierry.Priol@inria.fr

  2. CoreGRID objectives • To build a European-wide research laboratory • To avoid fragmentation of Grid research activities in Europe • Create the European “Grid Lighthouse” and be seen as such worldwide • To achieve integration and sustainability • To build solid foundations for GRID and P2P technologies • Both on a methodological basis and a technological basis • Support medium and long term research activities • Achieve and promote scientific and technological excellence within & beyond the Grid research community • Gather and disseminate European research • A think-tank for spin-off projects • EC funded, bilateral projects, international cooperations, … European research network on foundations, software Infrastructures and applications for large-scale, distributed GRID and peer-to-peer technologies

  6. Some of the many scientific achievements • Knowledge and data management • Data integration and query reformulation in Grids (XMAP on OGSA-DQP) • Programming Models • Definition of a Grid component model (GCM) and implementation through a spin-off FP6 project (GridCOMP) involving the industry • System Architecture • P2P techniques to make Grid middleware scalable and dependable • Grid Information, Resource and Workflow monitoring service • Innovative approach to multilevel Grid checkpointing architecture • Resource Management and Scheduling • A common scheduling architecture for future Grid systems • Grid Systems, Toold and Environments • Validation of a new software componentisation methodology using the Grid’5000 testbed European research network on foundations, software Infrastructures and applications for large-scale, distributed GRID and peer-to-peer technologies

  7. Integrating research in the area of Programming Models: the CoreGRID effect… • How to facilitate the programming of Grids ? • Component/object • Before CoreGRID, several projects running independently: • Assist (U. Pisa / CNR) • Fractal (INRIA) • GridCCM (INRIA) • HOC-SA (U. Muenster) • Ibis (Vrije U. Amsterdam) • ICENI (IC) • MALLBA (UPC) • Mocca (Cyfronet) • Polytop (U. Passau) • POP-C++ (UASF) • ProActive (INRIA) • REFLEX (U. Chile) • QUB (Queen’s U. Belfast) • Leads to duplication of efforts, lack of critical mass and lack of visibility, … Queen’s Univ.

  8. Towards a common Component Model for GridsThe CoreGRID Grid Component Model (GCM) Grid Application • Establish a set of requirements for a Grid component model based on the experience of CoreGRID partners • Define specifications of what should be a component model suitable for Grid infrastructures • Not reinventing the wheel… • Implementation of the Grid Component Model through a spin-off project Resources European research network on foundations, software Infrastructures and applications for large-scale, distributed GRID and peer-to-peer technologies

  9. Main achievements after almost 4 years • Organization of 59 meetings and 17 workshops, contributing to solving research challenges as described in the CoreGRID research roadmaps. • Delivery of more than 447 joint technical papers accepted in peer-review conferences, workshops and journals, including ten highly reputed CoreGRID series volumes, thus advancing European excellence. • Publication of 137 CoreGRID technical reports, co-authored by at least two different CoreGRID partners showing the level of integration among the CoreGRID community. • The effective kick-off of several spin-off research projects, funded either by the European Commission within the 6th and the 7th Framework Programmes, or through national and/or regional European research network on foundations, software Infrastructures and applications for large-scale, distributed GRID and peer-to-peer technologies

  10. Main achievements after almost 4 years • Expanding further the database of publications by CoreGRID researchers in the area of Grid and peer-to-peer computing with around 1050 references available today. • Increased visibility of the Grid research community through the support of highly-reputed international conferences, such as EuroPar 2005, 2006 and 2007, HPDC 2006, IEEE conference on Grid Computing in 2006 and 2007, CCGRID 2008 and events such as Grid@Work 2006 and 2007. CoreGRID also sponsored the Open Grid Forum. • Opening up academic research agendas in order to identify business-oriented research priorities, leading to the spin-off of new CoreGRID activities, for example in service-oriented architectures and systems. • Developing new ideas to anticipate technological trends and to promote commercially relevant and promising research.
