 Need for more:

 Processing power  Storage  Share research facilities

 E-science: “computationally intensive science

that is carried out in highly distributed network environments, or science that uses immense data sets that require grid computing;”

• Global challenges with high societal impact
• Big Science and the role of “empowered” citizens
• Data deluge… born digital material… virtual-labs
• Cross-disciplinarity
• Spread of skills and competences

• Need to prepare permanent, common Grid infrastructure
• Ensure the long-term sustainability of the European e-

Infrastructure independent of short project funding cycles

• Coordinate the integration and interaction between

National Grid Infrastructures (NGIs)

• Operate the production Grid infrastructure on a European

level for a wide range of scientific disciplines

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)

 Formation of National Grid Initiatives (NGIs) which unite efforts

within each country, providing a single point of contact for coordinated efforts and reducing the management and

• rganisational overhead of international cooperation around Grid

computing.

 These national bodies will be complemented by a second structure,

European Grid Initiative (EGI) coordinating issues on a European scale, including operations management, policy, standards and middleware testing.

 Such a structure addresses the key issue of long-term sustainability

• f the European Grid Infrastructure, ensuring the availability of Grid

services to researchers from all backgrounds and disciplines as we move further into the 21st century.

Each NGI … should be a recognized national body with a single point-of-contact … should mobilize national funding and resources … should ensure the operation of a national e-Infrastructure … should support user communities … should contribute and adhere to intl. standards and policies

 Forum for National R&D Infrastructure (TELEM)

appointed Yehuda Zisapel on Jan 2007 to examine Grid infrastructure for Israel.

 Members: David Horn (TAU), Julian Satran (IBM), Doron

Havatzelet (MOD), Assaf Maron (BMC), Eliezer Rabinovici (HUJI), Yossi Matias (TAU, Google), Shuki Glaitman (AXC), co-ordinator: Avi Shavit.

 Final report handled on July 2007.  National Research Infrastructure approved the

recommendations to establish the ISRAGRID!

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)

 Gain knowledge and train professional for the

industry.

 increase compute resources and improve their

utilization for the benefit of the community

 Establish inter-organizational Grid in Israel  Supply infrastructure for the Israeli academia

and hi-tech

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)



The network would be used for R&D and will be based on the existing NREN.



Users will finance the establishment and operation of the GRID operation.



All the research entities will be invited to participate.



The network will be available with secure access.



Each partner will finance his own resources (to be shared) and connectivity to the NREN.

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)

 Accessibility to vast amount of resources that were not

accessible otherwise.

 Lowering processing cost by sharing resources  Improve resources utilization by balancing between

computation demands and (idle) resource availability.

 Parallel process in order to shorten the computing time.  Establish user communities (VO) in Israel

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)

 ISRAGRID administration will be located in IUCC (local NREN)  Skilled personnel will be hired to provide the needed services for all

the users

 ISRAGRID is the Israeli official grid representative in international

• rganizations.

 Establish and maintain VOs for all the users in Israel.  Helping users to establish new sites and share resources  Maintain the core services and grid related security.  Each site in the ISRAGRID will contribute some resources for the

benefit of all.

 Academic teaching – The Planning and Budgeting Committee (PBC)

 Encourage Grid training in all institutes that acquire degrees in computer science or engineering have Grid research.  Each University that will give 3 weekly hours course will get additional 100K NIS  The training will be done thru “Gilda” node that will be maintained by the administration.

 Academic research – National Science Fund (NSF)

 Allocate 3-5 grants in domains related to grid computing (incl. parallel processing, game theory, queuing theory, internet etc.) as long as they have clear association with the field.  The grants application should be submitted according to the regular procedures of NSF and pass the needed academic committees.

LinkSceem – ISRAGRID – Eddie Aronovich (http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/research/eddie.aronovich)

 Initial operation will be based on EGEE  EGEE will help with introduction and training in

the first year

 Current users are from Physics and BioMed

community
