SA - Specific Service ActivitiesNA - Networking ActivitiesJRA - Joint Research Activities


BalticGrid Objectives

• Sustainable integration of the research and educational computing and communication infrastructure in the Baltic States into the European Grid infrastructure.

• Enable the formation of effective research collaborations in the Baltic States, within Europe and beyond.

BalticGrid Approach

• Maximize use of human resources for Grid development and deployment by implementing the Baltic Grid as an extension of EGEE– Grid Operations coordinated with the

EGEE North European Regional Operating Centre

• Assure manageable co-existence with other European Grids– DEISA, CrossGrid, NorduGrid…

• Engage the Baltic States in Grid related policy and standards activities

NA5 and EGEE related projects

• NA5 = Policy and International Cooperation• Policy-related activities

– Mostly focusing on backing the eInfrastructure Reflection Group (www.e-irg.org) “supporting the creation of a framework for the easy and cost-effective shared use of electronic resources in Europe” Pursued mainly through a series of policy related White Papers and

Roadmap documents, along with related Workshops

• International Cooperation activities: – With other projects including “concertation” activities (i.e.

interacting with a cluster of related projects – forum of exchanging ideas)

– With other geographical regions (North America, Asia Pacific, Russia, South America)

– With standardisation bodies (GGF et al)
