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, …

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

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, …

Towards a common Component Model for GridsThe CoreGRID Grid Component Model (GCM)
• 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
Grid Application
Resources
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

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.

CoreGRID ERCIM Working Group
• To gain international visibility and attract funding– Grids, P2P and Service computing (in the context of Future Internet)
• Open to everyone– Not necessary to be a member of ERCIM
• Main activities– Workshops– Project proposals– Mobility and fellows
• ERCIM support financially the WG Chair up to €15,000
• Action proposal to be submitted to FP7
