BEinGRID: Welcome Plenary
(90 mins)
Santi Ristol (Atos Origin)
The BEinGRID project’s central goal has always been to foster the adoption of Grid technology in commercial situations. We believe that the technology is market-ready, and our pilot implementations will serve as beacons to their sectors. This, in parallel with the findings of our business consultants, technical specialists, and the Gridipedia website, will catalyse the markets leading to widespread uptake of Grid technologies.
With an introduction from BEinGRID coordinator Santi Ristol, key speakers Charles Brett, Principal Analyst from Forrester, and Jesus Villasante, Head of Unit, Software & Service Architectures and Infrastructures at the European Commission will discuss their thoughts on future trends in Grid computing.
