European Grid projects with Swiss participation

• Chemomentum
The "Chemomentum" project is taking up and enhancing state-of-the-art Grid technologies and applying them to real-world challenges in computational chemistry and related application areas.

 

• CoreGRID
"CoreGRID" is a European Network of Excellence with 42 members. Its goals are to put together all the institutions working on Grid, P2P and distributed computing in Europe thinking about the next generation of Grids (Global Computing).

 

• DEGREE
The "Dissemination and Exploitation of GRids in Earth sciencE" project aims to promote the Grid culture within the different areas of Earth Science and to widen the use of Grid infrastructure.

 

• DILIGENT
"A DIgital Library Infrastructure on Grid-ENabled Technology" will create an advanced test-bed for the creation of digital libraries that support the collaboration of virtual organisations.

 

• EGEE
The "Enabling Grids for E-sciencE" project brings together scientists and engineers from more than 240 institutions in 45 countries world-wide to provide a seamless Grid infrastructure for e-Science that is available to scientists 24 hours-a-day.

 

• EMBRACE
The "European Model for Bioinformatics Research and Community Education" Network of Excellence will optimise informatics and information exploitation by pure and applied biological scientists in both the academic and commercial sectors.

 

• KnowARC
The "KnowARC" project aspires to improve and extend the existing state-of-the-art technology found in the Advanced Resource Connector (ARC) middleware, which provides a set of reliable, robust, non-intrusive, well-tested core services.

 

• PRACE
The "Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe" will create a pan-European High Performance Computing (HPC) service consisting of major supercomputing centers.
