Description
The main objective of the Business Experiments in Grid
(BEinGRID) projectis to foster the adoption of the so-called
Next Generation Grid technologies by the realization of
several business experiments and the creation of a toolset
repository of Grid middleware upper layers.
BEinGRID will undertake a series of targeted business
experiment pilots designed to implement and deploy Grid
solutions in a broad spectrum of European business sectors
(entertainment, financial, industrial, chemistry, gaming,
retail, textile, etc).
Eighteen business experiments are planned in the initial
stage of the project with a second open call for proposals
in the latter stages. Secondly, a toolset repository of Grid
service components and best practise will be created to
support European businesses that wish to take-up the Grid.
To minimise redevelopment of components, BEinGRID will
deploy innovative Grid solutions using existing Grid
components from across the European Union and beyond.
