eInfrastructureCall b.4 Grid initiatives

• Infrastructures exhibiting production-level
  performance capabilities
• Distributed facilities at gigabit/terabit scales
  for use by a broad range of different research
  disciplines.
• Emphasis on initiatives to lead to
  production-quality and ready-to-use software for
  both science and engineering
• Complement and add value to national
  Grid-initiatives
• Favor interconnection to major Grid-based
  experimental infrastructures in other parts of
  the world
• Support integration on eInfrastructures of Grid
  and Semantic/Web technological and business
  concepts.

  MW-repository
• Interoperable, integrated infrastructures
  (clusters-supercomputers)
• Extension
• New user communities (including industry)
• Geographical extension
• Deepening
• Flexibly configurable, reliable end-to-end
  (optical) network provision
• Intelligent, cognitive, dynamically adaptable RI
