Dr. Xenophon TSILIBARIS - Programme Management and Administration - GRNET S.A., reported about the annual ERA-NET event has become the major event for policy makers and funding bodies,

In Brussels on the 23rd and 24th of March 2010

The event brought more than 200 new and old stakeholders to keep them abreast of the latest policy thinking, to review progress in terms of the development of the platform, and to elicit their views on future activities.

21


More specifically, it put a strong emphasis on interaction and mutual learning by offering eight different workshops dealing with issues at the heart of the current discussion on the coordination and cooperation of national and regional research programs.

The ERA-NET scheme has been instrumental in promoting progress towards the European Research Area and the so-called ‘fifth freedom’, i.e. the free circulation of researchers, scientific knowledge and technology.

22


The ERA-NET scheme has also contributed to the development of Joint Programming Initiatives (JPIs).

A clear consensus emerged that the ERA-NET scheme should be maintained with its current remit. While ERA-NETs may have also served as preparatory phases towards JPIs, they should remain independent.

The participants clealry stated that there is no need for yet another instrument at European level. Instead, the main concern was how to make more efficient use of existing mechanisms in a more solid and sustainable manner.

23


The ‘opportunistic’ behaviour that initially led funding agencies and ministries to join as many ERA-NETs as possible is now long gone. ERA-NET participations are now increasingly governed by key criteria such as the need to reach critical mass and to obtain a good match with national/regional strategic objectives.

Nevertheless, it is important to build on achievements to date and to continue to provide access to shared information and to identify common ground and jointprinciples enabling a more strategic and efficient approach to decision-making at Member State level concerning transnational coordination.

24


At the same time, the long-term commitment of resources at both national and transnational levels is crucial to the development and implementation of effective transnational strategies.

On 23-24 March, Ognjen Prnjat - GRNET was at the 6th European Conference on Research Infrastructures in Barcelona.

http://www.ecri2010.es/en

SEE-GRID-SCI project had a booth (with a new, very effective poster), together with SEERA-EI. The brochures were distributed there and a number of contacts was make, most importantly with eInfraNet - ERANET project

26


Governance models are a key issue and the panel mainly identified difficulties rather than providing solutions; apart from efficient management.

General eInfrastructures such as PRACE and EGI are important for ESFRI projects support and this must be enforcised.

More interactions between eInfras and users are needed;

service models are encouraged;

world-wide interaction and linking is necessary, not only Europe; data should be following open and trusted models.

27


Open access to infrastructures is the key requirement - Trust between scientists and politicians is crucial - The idea of EC making proposals to member states is not the way forward but rather closer joint development of common objectives

Some notes specific to SEERAEI project: - WP4: Structural funds can help development of RIs - WP4: Possibility of joint use of EIB funds should be explored by WP4 - WP3: ESFRI work on regional issues was underlined, there is a WG- WP4: ELI infrastructure: cz, hu, ro. RO partners should inform the list about this and suggest ways for future open access.

e-IRG Roadmap 2010The e-IRG Roadmap 2010 was endorsed by the e-IRG delegates on 23 March 2010. Comments to the document made during the public consultation phase are available at the e-IRG website:

http://www.e-irg.eu/publications/roadmap.html

Sasa Ivanovic from Ministry of Education and Science Department for Science, Research and Technological Development, Montenegro – reported:

29


The fundamental contribution of research e‑Infrastructure to European competitiveness is almost universally acknowledged.

Sustainable and integrated networking, grid, data and high performance and commodity computing services are now essential tools for 40 million users in research and academia across Europe.

The innovation potential fuelled by this largescale deployment of such advanced services should not be underestimated.

30


The e‑Infrastructure Reflection Group (e‑IRG) supports this innovation process. e-IRG is a forum where service providers, technology developers, and existing and new user communities come together to help realise the innovation and inclusivity goals of the i2010 strategy.

Increasingly, new and diverse user communities are relying on e‑Infrastructure services;as such, the common e‑Infrastructure must cater to new and updated requirements. This junction between leading-edge research and the e‑Infrastructure that supports it is an area where considerable socio-economic benefits can be realised.

31


The inclusion of new user communities has also highlighted the importance of providing e‑Infrastructure as a service, rather than continuing with a product- or technology-oriented approach. Such service provision should be based on principles and models that allow direct comparison of different technical, organisational and financial paradigms. Adopting this approach will ensure the continued ability of e‑Infrastructure to act as an ‘innovation engine’and accelerate the transition of leading-edge, research-focused ICT applications into solutions that benefit society as a whole.

Other major trends for the future of e-Infrastructure include the emergence of data-intensive science, the threatening software crisis, and the move towards the concept of computing as a service.

32


Polytechnic University of Tirana PUoT-AL participated in CEBIT'2010 was supported mainly by WINS-ICT, with little contribution from ICT-WEB-PROMS.
