Description
Over the last few years, the EUMEDGRID vision has facilitated improvements at the technological level and fostered the know-how of networking and computing professionals across the Mediterranean. The resulting pilot grid infrastructure for research in the Mediterranean region opened up important opportunities to optimize the usage of existing, limited storage and computing resources, improve accessibility and empower research groups from several domains.
EUMEDGRID-Support builds on these achievements with the spotlight on Europe and the Mediterranean and Middle-east regions through an open dialog aimed at increasing stakeholder and community awareness on the fundamental importance of e-Infrastructures with the ultimate goal of ensuring long-term sustainability.
