The Collage Authoring Environment: A Platform for Executable Publications  (PDF: A4), Eryk Ciepiela, Piotr Nowakowski, Daniel Harężlak, Marek Kasztelnik, Grzegorz Dyk, Jan Meizner, and Marian Bubak; poster presented during Cracow Grid Workshop 2012; 22-24 October 2012, Kraków, Poland.

VPH-Share develops the organisational fabric and integrates optimized services to (1) expose and share data and knowledge, (2) jointly develop multiscale models for the composition of new VPH workflows, (3) facilitate collaboration within the VPH community. Four flagship workflows (representing @neurIST, euHeart, VPHOP and Virolab projects) provide existing data, tools and models, engaging with the services developed by VPH-Share to drive the development of the infostructure and pilot its applications. Data sources are usually clinical data from individual patients – medical images and/or biomedical signals – sometimes with population information. Operations range from secure access and storage through annotation, data inference and assimilation, to complex image processing and physics-based mathematical modelling, to data reduction and representation.

The mission of the UrbanFlood project is investigating the use of sensors within flood embankments to support an online early warning system, real time emergency management and routine asset management. The Common Information Space (CIS) provides a means for integration, over the Internet, of Early Warning Systems, sensors and application programs for public information and decision support.

The gSLM project aims to improve Service Level Management (SLM) in the grid domain. SLM is a set of tools and processes widely used in the commercial sector to agree, define and measure the provision of a service. In the grid domain SLM can make it easier for grid resource owners, operators and representatives of user groups to agree upon, document and manage the many agreements between stakeholders required to make the grid run smoothly. By bringing together experts in grid operations and management with leading members of the IT Service Management community, the project aims to generate new approaches and concepts for grid SLM.

The goal of the PL-Grid project is to provide the Polish scientific community with an IT supercomputing platform and a set of advanced tools to enable e-science research in various fields. This infrastructure aims to be compatible with existing worldwide Grid frameworks. GridSpace2 is positioned as the basis for an advanced virtual laboratory environment for in-silico processing by Polish scientists, state authorities and crisis management teams.

The GREDIA Project prepared a system for access to multimedia data on the Grid, in the context of business applications. GREDIA focuses on media and banking sectors. Here, GridSpace is applied as a core of the Appea platform, which enables users to quickly develop and deploy application scenarios, making use of the available Grid services and data resources. Moreover, GridSpace is capable of interfacing end users and present them with custom user interfaces, adapted to the needs of individual application domains.

The European Research Network on Foundations, Software Infrastructures and Applications for large scale distributed, GRID and Peer-to-Peer Technologies.

The programme of the Project was structured around six complementary research areas that have been selected on the basis of their strategic importance, their research challenges and the recognised European expertise to develop next generation Grid middleware, namely: (1) Knowledge & Data Management, (2) Programming Models, (3) System Architecture Grid, (4) Information and Monitoring Services, (5) Resource Management and Scheduling, (6) Problem Solving Environments, Tools and GRID systems.

The Knowledge-based Workflow System for Grid Applications (K-Wf Grid) addresses the need for a better infrastructure for the future Grid environment. The Grid as a vast space of partially-cooperating, partially-competing Grid services will be a very dynamic and complex environment. In order to address the complexity in using and controlling the next generation Grid, the consortium adopted the approaches envisioned by semantic Web and Grid communities in a novel, generic infrastructure. The K-Wf Grid system assists its users in composing powerful Grid workflows by means of a rule-based expert system.

The CrossGrid project is oriented towards compute- and data-intensive applications that are characterized by the interaction with a person in a processing loop. Such applications require a response from the Grid to an action by a human agent in different time scales.

The FedSM project is funded by the European Commission in order to improve service management in federated e-Infrastructures such as Grids and Federated Clouds. The project has dual aims of making changes in three 'client' infrastructures to improve their service management maturity and developing material to assist other infrastructures in making their own improvements.
