3. Åke Edlund  Coordinator KTH-SICS Cloud Innovation Center (C!C)[1]  Managing Partner SICS Seed Accelerator[2]  Leading VENUS-C Scientific and International Cooperation[3]  Coordinating ECEE (see this presentation)[4]  December 2010: completed the NEON project (Northern Europe Cloud Computing) [1] www.pdc.kth.se/research/cloud-computing [2] www.sics.com/seedaccelerator [3] www.venus-c.eu [4] www.scientific-cloud.org

4. Why “ECEE”?  Many initiatives with similar goals  Accelerate the learning process  Share the load  Cross border and cross project services www. Scientific-cloud.org Vilnius 2011.04.13

6. Collaboration cross European projects  Initiated in September 2009 – at EGEE’09  Meet twice a year  1 st workshop – OGF28, Munich, March 2010  2 nd workshop – EGI TF, Amsterdam, Sept 2010  3 rd workshop – EGI UF, Vilnius, April 2011 www. Scientific-cloud.org Vilnius 2011.04.13

7. Workshops – example  1 hr Industry presentations  2 hr Detailed findings - project-by-project, sharing specific findings, and respective roadmap  1 hrDiscussion, pointing at common challenges and how to share the load, to update common high-level roadmap www.
