Southeastern European Grid-enabled elnfrastructure development 2 (SEE-GRID-2)

2008-4-30
Establishment of highly-sophisticated collaborative models for use of computing and data resources across various domains all over Europe and worldwide is currently being pursued through several Grid research efforts. The SEE-GRID regional initiative has demonstrated that a geographically independent, common-pool of computing resources can be of great scientific value to a widely distributed, less-resourced region like South-East Europe (SEE). Through the interconnection of the SEE regional infrastructure to the pan-European and worldwide eInfrastructures, the developing SEE sites have benefited from accessing computing power and advanced applications that would otherwise be unaffordable. SEE-GRID-2 (South Eastern European GRid-enabled elnfrastructure Development 2) aims to advance the current SEE pilot Grid infrastructure and its services, and capitalize on the existing SEE-GRID human network to further strengthen scientific collaboration and cooperation among participating SEE communities in the area of eInfrastructures. SEE-GRID-2 will expand the current SEE grid infrastructure by proliferation of the participating Resource Centres in each SEE country, will target multi-disciplinary grids in a wide range of research and academic institutes and scientific communities in all SEE countries, and will assist the participating partners to reach a mature, sustainable level of eInfrastructure service-provision for the benefit of all citizens in the region. In the long term, SEE-GRID-2 will contribute to the regional cooperation and economic growth, through the sustaining of collaborative efforts in promising science and technology areas like eInfrastructures which constitute key steps of the continued Pan-EU efforts for easing the digital divide between the SEE region and the rest of the continent.

Overcoming the double hurdles to investing in technology
Taymaz, Erol (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-3-24)
Technological activities of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have received considerable attention from researchers and policy makers since the mid-1980s. Small firms could nurture entrepreneurship and facilitate the creation and application of new ideas. In spite of their potential in generating innovations, it is also observed that SMEs shy away from formal R&D activities, and the firm size itself seems to be a barrier for R&D activities. SMEs operating in developing countries face extra hurdles t...
Enabling Grids for E-sciencE III (EGEE-III)
Şener, Cevat(2010-4-30)
A globally distributed computing Grid now plays an essential role for large-scale, data intensive science in many fields of research. The concept has been proven viable through the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE project (EGEE and EGEE-II, 2004-2008) and its related projects. EGEE-II is consolidating the operations and middleware of this Grid for use by a wide range of scientific communities, such as astrophysics, computational chemistry, earth and life sciences, fusion and particle physics. Strong quality ass...

A Distributed Online Curriculum and Courseware Development Model
ONAY DURDU, PINAR; Yalabik, Nese; Çağıltay, Kürşat (2009-01-01)
A distributed online curriculum and courseware development model (DONC(2)) is developed and tested in this study. Courseware development teams which may work in different institutions who need to develop high quality, reduced cost, on time products will be the users of DONC(2). The related features from the disciplines of instructional design and software engineering were combined. The research is conducted as a collective case study, including four cases with distinctive characteristics to reveal the sever...
