2. EU Information Day 25 03 2003 EDG status 2 The EU DataGrid Project 9.8 M Euros EU funding over 3 years, twice as much from partners 90% for middleware and applications (HEP, Earth Obs. and Bio Med.) Three year phased developments & demos (2001-2003) Latest News: 2 nd annual project review successfully passed in Feb 2003! Total of 21 partners Research and Academic institutes as well as industrial companies Related projects and activities: DataTAG (2002-2003) CrossGrid (2002-2004) GRIDSTART (2002-2004) Grace (2002-2004)

3. EU Information Day 25 03 2003 EDG status 3 Genomic Exploration Earth Observation High Energy Physics more and more scientists begin to use the EDG middleware and testbed, relying on Grid technology to solve huge data challenges we are delighted that the EDG project is already releasing production quality Grid middleware. It will allow us to start regular testing of our extreme computational requirements on a real Grid infrastructure, and could have a significant impact on how we plan and develop our experiment An LHC scientist Applications

5. EU Information Day 25 03 2003 EDG status 5 Connections of the different nodes of the EDG testbed are made possible by the EU- funded GEANT project connecting more than 30 countries across Europe speeds of up to 10 Gbit/s high data throughput Quality of Service EDG and GEANT: the first major production quality tests of the network EDG & GEANT speed reliability monitoring capabilities

6. EU Information Day 25 03 2003 EDG status 6 Through links with sister projects, there is the potential for a truely global scientific applications grid Related Grid Projects

7. EU Information Day 25 03 2003 EDG status 7 Second EU review successfully passed, needs to finish well Major re-orientation of the project towards production accepted Need to develop further plans in view of future project EGEE Continue collaboration with US and across Atlantic testbeds (with DataTAG) Need to accommodate other applications Plan long term support of EDG developments Major opportunity for further EU funding (EGEE) Current Plans
