• Genomic Exploration• Earth Observation• High Energy Physics
more and more scientists begin to use the EDG middleware and testbed, relying on Grid technology to solve huge data challenges
“we are delighted that the EDG project is already releasing production quality Grid middleware. It will allow us to start regular testing of our extreme computational requirements on a real Grid infrastructure, and could have a significant impact on how we plan and develop our experiment”

•Second EU review successfully passed, needs to finish well
•Major re-orientation of the project towards production accepted
•Need to develop further plans in view of future project EGEE
•Continue collaboration with US and across Atlantic testbeds (with DataTAG)
•Need to accommodate other applications
•Plan long term support of EDG developments
•Major opportunity for further EU funding (EGEE)
