CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t Bob Jones 28 th November 2012 Preparing for Horizon 2020

CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t How to position ourselves Themes Cloud Computing Big Data Open Access Security Aspects PPP Multidisciplinary Sustainability Business models Innovation & wealth creation Training Impact beyond research Societal Challenges Directorates DG-Connect DG-Research Marie Curie (REA)

CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t Building a common strategy 1.Determine and document CERN strategy & priorities –Not just IT 2.Promote/evolve and document strategy & priorities with other research communities –This will not match [1] exactly 3.Promote/evolve and document strategy & priorities with ICT industry –This will not match [2] exactly 4.Present agreed strategy and priorities to EC

CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t Present agreed strategy and priorities to EC Position strategy as a Future Emerging Technology (FET) style programme covering full duration of H2020 [7 years] –Will need to cover all themes & aspects Span both directorates Propose how the programme will be mapped into a series of focused funding calls throughout H2020 Propose how the programme will be measured and governed

CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t How to leverage this strategy CERN as co-editor for the strategy & priority docs –Examples Fed Id Mgmt CERN-OPEN Cloud Strategy CERN-OPEN Other groups of key importance –EIROforum labs IT working group –ERF –UN organisations –eIRG CERN representatives in EC expert groups –Examples Tim Bell – Cloud Computing Jamie Shiers – DPHEP & Research Data Alliance CERN’s role in existing EC projects

CERN IT Department CH-1211 Genève 23 Switzerland t Leveraging CERN’s role in existing EC projects EGI-InSPIRE - public arm of hybrid cloud, research communities EUDAT – data services EMI – middleware service definitions Helix Nebula – commercial arm of hybrid cloud, industry CRISP – IT & Data Mgmt requirements from ESFRI research infrastructures eScienceTalk – dissemination/outreach channels OpenAIRE/Blogforever – collaboration tools iMarine/EnviroGrid [follow-ons] – research communities
