HellasGRID

HellasGRID (HellasGRID)

The main scope of HellaGrid is the provision of High Performance Computing and High Throughput Computing services to Greek academic and research community. So, the resources of the grid infrastructure are used by Greek researches and researches involved at various European projects. The last years, an more and more increased number of researches coming from various scientific fields (high energy physics, computational chemistry, biomedicine, informatics, meteorology, seismology, etc.) uses the HellasGrid infrastructure in order to cover their needs for computational and storage resources.

iMarine

Data e-Infrastructure Initiative for Fisheries Management and conservation of Marine Living Resources (iMarine)

iMarine is an open and collaborative initiative that will establish a data infrastructure to support the Ecosystem Approach to fisheries management and conservation of marine living resources. iMarine empowers practitioners and policy makers from multiple scientific fields such as fisheries, biodiversity and ocean observation. The iMarine infrastructure will ensure that otherwise dispersed and heterogeneous data is available to all stakeholder communities through a shared virtual environment that brings together multidisciplinary data sources, supports cross-cutting scientific analysis, and assists communication. iMarine (Data e-Infrastructure Initiative for Fisheries Management and Conservation of Marine Living Resources) is co-funded by the European Commission under Framework Programme 7. The project was launched in November 2011 and will end in April 2014. The final aim of iMarine is to contribute to sustainable environmental management with invaluable direct or indirect benefits to the future of our planet, from climate change mitigation and marine biodiversity loss containment to poverty alleviation and disaster risk reduction.

EMI

European Middleware Initiative (EMI)

The European Middleware Initiative project (EMI) is a collaboration among European grid middleware providers to develop and maintain a software platform for high performance distributed computing. It is at the core of grid middleware distributions used by scientific research communities and distributed computing infrastructures all over the world including EGI - the leading European grid computing infrastructure - and WLCG - the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid - which supports, for example, the search for the Higgs boson and new types of matter searches of the physicists at LHC, together with other large scientific challenges in astronomy, biology, computational chemistry and other sciences. Being a close collaboration among well-established grid middleware providers and other specialized software providers, EMI proposes itself as a leading platform for scientific grid computing in diverse scientific research fields.
