Welcome to AxGrids 2004

About the Conference

Across Grids 2004 is organized by CrossGrid, a European Union funded project on Grid research, GRIDSTART, the EU-sponsored initiative for consolidating technical advances in grids in Europe, and the University of Cyprus. AxGrids 2004 will run in conjunction with the Second IST Concertation Meeting on Grid Research.
The Conference is hosted in Nicosia, Cyprus, and continues the successful 1st European Across Grids Conference, held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, on February 2003. The 2nd European Across-Grids Conference aims to examine the state of the art in research and technology developments in Grid Computing, and provide a forum for the presentation of, and exchange of views on latest grid-related research results and future work. The Conference wishes to bring together researchers, developers, practitioners and potential users of Grid technologies from Europe and around the world.

Aims and Scope

The Grid is emerging as a global infrastructure that integrates computing resources over the Internet and enables the formation of multi-institutional virtual organizations. It is also seen as the point of convergence between eScience and eBusiness, offering a range of services that provide solutions to complex problems of science, business, industry, and society. Because of its importance as an emerging technology, the Grid is one of the Strategic Objectives of the IST priority of the 6th EU Framework for Research and Technological Development 2002-2006, and has already attracted considerable industrial interest.
