SciencePAD is currently in its early design and prototyping phase. Most of the functionality of this site is under development and it is not as automated or user friendly as we plan it to be for the final production version. Your contributions to the site with new registrations of users, organizations, collaborations and software, comments and new ideas are warmly welcome. For more information make sure to check the current SciencePAD Roadmap
The Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) is the Italian research agency dedicated to the study of the fundamental constituents of matter and the laws that govern them, under the supervision of the Ministry of Education, Universities and Research (MIUR). It conducts theoretical and experimental research in the fields of subnuclear, nuclear and astroparticle physics. All of the INFN’s research activities are undertaken within a fra
SWITCH is the National Research and Education Network organization for Switzerland.
Créé en 2007 sous l’impulsion de Guy Wormser, l’Institut des Grilles fédére l’ensemble des actions du CNRS concernant les grilles de calcul et le cloud computing.
Les « grilles informatiques » sont des infrastructures virtuelles constituées d’un ensemble d’ordinateurs, géographiquement éloignés mais fonctionnant en réseau pour fournir une puissance globale. Apparues voici quelques années sous l’impulsion de la physique des particules, elles permettent à des chercheurs et industriels de disposer à moindre coût de ressou
Founded in 1971, the aim of the National institute of nuclear and particle physics (IN2P3) of the CNRS is to promote and unify research activities in the fields of nuclear physics, particle and astroparticle physics. It coordinates programmes within these fields on behalf of the CNRS and universities, in partnership with CEA. The goal of this research is to explore the physics of elementary particles, their fundamental interactions and the manner in which they assemble into atomic nuclei, to study the properties of these nuclei and to explo
KISTI is a government-funded research institute designed to maximize the efficiency of science and technology R&D and support high-tech R&D for researchers KISTI has laid the foundation for sophisticated R&D by collecting science and technology information from countries around the world and providing the information to companies and research institutions. Also, KISTI has supplied customized information analysis service to enable researchers and small & medium sized companies to make a right decision on time and has contributed to maximizing research efficiency through bu
The Institute of Accelerating Systems and Applications is affiliated with six departments (Medicine, Physics, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Chemical Engineering and General Sciences) of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) and the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA). It is open to researchers from the international community and access is determined purely on scientific merit.
The Computer Architecture and Grid Group (CAG) at Trinity College Dublin (TCD) has been active in Grid Computing projects since 2002. CAG is currently involved in a variety of EU Framework 7 projects including Helio, StratusLab, SCI-BUS, Mantychore and EMI. Many people within the CAG group are also active members of the Grid Operations Centre which is part of Grid-Ireland.
The aim of Grid-Ireland is to enable communities of users, for example, astrophysicists, geneticists or linguists, to construct virtual organizations above Grid
CESNET, association of legal entities, was funded in 1996 by all universities of the Czech Republic and the Czech Academy of Sciences. Its main goals are:
The Helsinki Institute of Physics is a physics research institute that is operated jointly by the University of Helsinki, Aalto University, the University of Jyväskylä, the Lappeenranta University of Technology, and the Tampere University of Technology. The research activity at the institute covers an extensive range of subjects in theoretical physics and experimental subatomic physics. The mandate of the institute is to carry out and facilitate research in basic and applied physics as well as in physics research and technology development at international accelerator lab
Academia Sinica Grid Computing Centre (ASGC), one of the leading high performance computing and communication centres in Taiwan, builds advanced distributed grid and cloud computing infrastructure to accelerate scientific discovery and international collaborations from various domains and Asia Pacific countries. Since 2005, ASGC became one of the 11 Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) Tier-1 centres (the only Tier-1 centre in Asia) and Asia Pacific Regional Operation Centre (APROC), providing research application integration, coordination and resource federation support to e -Science collabora
The Italian Grid Initiative (IGI) is a Joint Research Unit supported by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MIUR). IGI provides the Italian Grid Infrastructure. It guarantees and supports common services for e-research, common middleware releases, general guide lines for policies and standards to be internationally adopted for secure interoperability among all existing grid infrastructures.
The Italian Grid Infrastructures copes with t
Pavol Jozef Šafárik University was established in 1959 as the second classical University in Slovakia. The current structure of P. J. Šafárik University includes four faculties – Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Science, Faculty of Law and Faculty of Public Administration. Research areas at Institute of Physics are magnetisms, low temperature physics, high energy physics, biophysics, and theoretical physics. Scientists of the institute contributed to the R&D in area of the grid computing and are members of the NorduGrid collaboration.
