  1. CERN openlab developmentFrancois Grey, 20/02/03OUTLINE1) What is CERN openlab?2) How can it be extended?3) Recommendations

  2. The Industrial Context The classical model: technology push Patenting & licensing Procurement Services to Industry

  3. The modern model: technology push + market pull Patenting & licensing Procurement Services to Industry Industry scouting Start-up creation R&D partnership

  4. Other examples of Industrial Partnerships US University Research Centers (long-term research) ESRF Partnership for Structural Biology (service + reinvestment in research)

  5. The Socio-Economic Context In Universities, even basic research must obtain co-funding (EU, Industry) CERN has been politically “sheltered” from these changes Events forcing CERN into “catch-up” mode (CERN external funding <1%, University research centers 20-50%)

  6. The development of CERN openlab Sponsorship “As much as possible for as little as possible” Partnership “Win-win”

  7. The development of CERN openlab Equipment Processors Switches People & Projects opencluster CERN fellowships Marie-Curie Summer students

  8. The development of CERN openlab Isolated “Manuel’s Idea” Integrated Coherent strategy with EDG, LCG and experiments

  9. The Partner view • Benefits are • CERN status as Grid technology leader • Testbed value of CERN • PR value of relationship with CERN • Value of partnership with other companies • Training of potential recruits • Access to EU programs • Risks are • No link to procurements • Too many competitors join • Advice • New projects rather than new openlabs • Extend indefinitely and integrate all CERN sponsorship activities

  10. The development of CERN openlab Big openlab Openlab 1 Openlab 2 Openlab 3 Opencluster Storage Tank Grid Security Mobile Grids Projects 1) Opencluster 2) Storage Tank 3) Grid Security 4) Mobile Grids 5)…

  11. Pros and Cons • Big openlab • Flexibility: partners can fund several projects • Simplicity: clear image, less management overhead • Multiple openlabs • Flexibility: can adjust membership requirements • Simplicity: clear objectives, lines of responsibility

  12. The long-term development Grid openlab Detector openlab Accelerator openlab MicrotechElectronics Software Hardware Middleware Applications Materials Components Power Open questions CLIC openlab? Non-LHC openlabs? (Medical, Energy…)

  13. Recommendations Reactive What contribution can we get? Which companies do we know? Pro-active What project do we want? Which companies do we want?
