Abstract:
Various grid communities have indicated the need for a full day
of case studies from campus grid sites, describing their grids.
The cases that will be presented should discuss how the grid came
about, how they got funding and executive buy-in/support, what it's
used for, etc. Each speaker will have a good block of time to present
their grid, but the definition of "campus" is fairly broad.
"Campus" may include enterprise and commercial grids,
if they can demonstrate a campus-type perspective (rather than special-purpose
only grids).
Pre-GGF15 Workshop - Campus Grids:
PGS-RG (Production Grid Services) will sponsor a full day of case
studies from campus grid sites, describing their grids. Harvard
(Jayanta Sircar) has offered to host this workshop on their campus,
probably on Sunday, 2-October. The cases that will be presented
should discuss how the grid came about, how they got funding and
executive buy-in/support, what it's used for, etc. We want to give
each speaker a good block of time to present their grid, but we're
pretty open about how the presenters define "campus".
This leaves us open to include enterprise and commercial grids,
if they can demonstrate a campus-type perspective (rather than special-purpose
only grids). The full-day timeframe should give each grid 30-45
minutes to present their case study.
GGF15 Community Program Follow-Up Panels:
To follow up, then, we will host a series of panels at GGF15, to
talk about commonalities across the grids - formation methodologies,
recruiting applications, best/common practices, lessons learned
& pitfalls, etc. The pre-GGF workshop talks should be pretty
parallel; the panels at GGF would then cut across all of the grids,
but addressing different issues in more detail.
We want to get a good cross-section not only of presentations,
but also of participants, so part of the workshop planning will
have to include outreach to campuses that might not traditionally
attend GGF meetings.
