Objectives of the Grid Projects in Sicily • Create a “collaboratory” in Sicily, both for scientific and industrial applications, built on top of a grid infrastructure • Connect the Sicilian e-Infrastructure to those already existing in Italy, in Europe, and in the rest of the world improving the scientific collaboration and increasing the “competitiveness” of e-Science and e-Industry “made in Sicily” • Disseminate the “grid paradigm” through the organization of dedicated events and training courses • Trigger/foster the creation of spin-offs in the ICT area in order to reduce the “brain drain” of brilliant young people to other parts of Italy and beyond INFSO-SSA-26637 Corso di Grid Computing, Catania, 12. 03. 2007 3

Relationships with Private Companies • Official agreement signed with ORACLE for the S-Sicilia Project aiming at set-up a Competence Centre in Sicily for accounting on the grid in collaboration with the Consorzio COMETA and a University of Messina spin-off SME. • Agreement finalized with MICROSOFT: – for the porting of g. Lite on Windows including the integration of MS CCS 2003 as LRMS; – for the adoption of Conference-XP as a platform to be used for/during grid training. • Other agreements are foreseen in the next future with Ferrari, FIAT, and Technipetrol.

Relationships between Projects • A Memorandum of Understanding has been finalized between Tri. Grid VL and PI 2 S 2. Under discussion a Mo. U with CYBERSAR. • COMETA, INAF and ALICE are “guest” Virtual Organizations authorized on the Tri. Grid VL e. Infrastructure • This means that PI 2 S 2 applications can run on the Tri. Grid infrastructure NOW ! INFSO-SSA-26637 Corso di Grid Computing, Catania, 12. 03. 2007 42
Summary and Conclusions • Tri. Grid VL is a very good example of grid project at a truly “regional” level. • After one year from the beginning (and one year before the end) the e-Infrastructure of Tri. Grid is a reality and the big portfolio of applicationw is now going to be deployed on it. • PI 2 S 2 is on track and first jobs are expected to run on the infrastructure within spring 2007 although a lot of activity is already possible on the Tri. Grid production service. INFSO-SSA-26637 Corso di Grid Computing, Catania, 12. 03. 2007 43
