European Grid Initiative (EGI)
The resources currently coordinates by EGEE will be managed through the European Grid Initiative (EGI) as of 2010. In EGI each country's grid infrastructure will be run by National Grid Initiatives. The adoption of this model will enable the next leap forward in research infrastructures to support collaborative scientific discoveries. EGI will ensure abundant, high-quality computing support for the European and global research community for many years to come.
EGI is a partnership between National Grid Initiatives (NGIs) and a coordinating body, the EGI Organization (EGI.eu). The headquarters of EGI.eu will be located in Amsterdam. Within the EGI partnership, NGIs and EGI.eu will work together to operate and further develop a sustainable pan-European grid infrastructure, enabling optimal sharing of computing and data resources. The EGI.eu is the glue enabling coherence between the NGIs for the benefit of the international user community.

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) |
|
Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) is Europe's leading grid computing project, providing a computing support infrastructure for over 10,000 researchers world-wide, from fields as diverse as high energy physics, earth and life sciences. In 2009 EGEE is focused on transitioning to a sustainable operational model, while maintaining reliable services for its users.
The EGEE project brings together experts from more than 50 countries with the common aim of building on recent advances in Grid technology and developing a service Grid infrastructure which is available to scientists 24 hours-a-day.
The project provides researchers in academia and business with access to a production level Grid infrastructure, independent of their geographic location. The EGEE project also focuses on attrac ....

The GridGuide from GridTalk shows the human face of grid computing. The GridGuide website encourages visitors to explore an interactive map of the world, visiting a sample of the thousands of scientific institutes involved in grid computing projects. Sites from more than 20 countries appear on the GridGuide, offering insider snippets on everything from research goals and grid projects to the best place to eat lunch and the pros and cons of working in grid computing.
