Resumen
EGEE (Enabling Grids for EscienE) is a EU supported project that integrates current international, national, regional and thematic Grid efforts, in order to create a seamless Grid infrastructure for the support of the international scientific research. The infrastructure supports distributed research communities, which share common Grid computing needs and are prepared to integrate their own computing
infrastructures and agree on common access policies.
Several scientific disciplines as well as industry have already ported applications on the EGEE Grid infrastructure thus demonstrating the potential of Grid technology as a powerful new tool for science as well as other fields.
The talk will provide an update on the status of the EGEE infrastructure and middleware, give an overview of the variety of applications already using the Grid, as well as presenting the preparations for EGEE phase II.
