Cracow Grid Workshop, October 15-17, Polish Grid PL-Grid motivation and aims  e-Science approach to research  Computer experiments  Huge, distributed and diversely structured data  Tools for data accessing, integration and processing  Versality of disciplines: physics, astronomy, astrophysics, chemistry, biology, bioinformatics, meteorology, climatology, medicine, Earth sciences, advanced text processing, processing and management of knowledge, e-learning.  PL-Grid vision:  To enable realization of e-Science model in various scientific fields through: Creation of a stable Grid infrastructure fully compatible and interoperable with European and World Grids thanks to cooperation (EGEE, DEISA, OMII, C-OMEGA, ESFRI), Ensuring the operation of this infrastructure in the production mode, Enabling the operation of domain Grids, Using and propagating Grid standards, Adjusting PL-Grid to user needs, Integration, testing and installation of software produced by leading Grid Projects (Polish and international), Organization of support for PL-Grid users (training, helpdesk, consultations), PL-Grid management.

Cracow Grid Workshop, October 15-17, Polish Grid PL-Grid Infrastructure  Assumptions  Polish Grid will have a common base infrastructure – similarly to solutions adopted in other countries  Specialized, domain Grid systems – including services and tools focused on specific types of applications – will be built upon this infrastructure.

Cracow Grid Workshop, October 15-17, Polish Grid PL-Grid infrastructure These domain Grid systems can be further developed and maintained in the framework of separate projects. Such an approach should enable efficient use of available financial resources.
