Catania

Barbera, R.

The Grid Industry Day will take place in the Aula Magna of the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Catania (Scientific Campus "La Cittadella Universitaria”, via S. Sofia, 64). The two day event will expertly demonstrate to business, in particular SMEs, the advantages of using a Grid e-Infrastructure and examine the increasing take-up of Grids in business. The event will give an insight into the current Grid demands from end users and the Grid infrastructure solutions available to meet these demands, through user-friendly Grids for commercial use. The event will give space to private entities interested in seeing where they can benefit from Grid technology and the vast EGEE infrastructure and resources available via the Regional Grid infrastructures. The home page of the Workshop is reachable here. The registration form is available here.
