European sites involved in global network demo using Grid technologiews
Argonne 14 May 2001 At the yearly US supercomputer conference in November, this year in Denver, at least 35 computing centres, including several European sites, such as the Universities of Stuttgart, Heidelberg and Manchester, and the research centre in Juelich, will organise SC Global, the first global technical conference using Grid technologies to link groups of people worldwide.
Sites that will participate in SC Global, span six continents and range from the Arctic Region Supercomputing
Center in Faribanks, AK, to the NSF Polar Research Center at the opposite
end of the globe in Antarctica. Sites in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China,
Germany, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, South Korea, the United Kingdom,
and an additional 21 sites in the U.S. also plan to participate in SC Global.
SC Global will use the Access Grid, a system that links people over high-speed
networks for virtual meetings and other collaborative sessions. Developed
by researchers at Argonne National Laboratory, the Access Grid is being
deployed by the National Computational Science Alliance. A crew from
Argonne National Laboratory will operate an Access Grid node on the Denver
exhibit floor.
