| Objective |
Grid computing is an important emerging paradigm for
organizing and sharing computing, network, storage and
instrument resources in large scale applications. The Grid
workshop brings together participants from academia,
industry and government to learn and to discuss about grid
activities in the APAN countries. The workshop is organized
by two sessions, the tutorial session of Grid middleware and
the technical session of updated grid research topics. |

Presentation 1: Beyond Grid Computing for R&D: Some Early Applications
Presenter: Hing-Yan LEE (National Grid Office, Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore)
Abstract:
The mission of the National Grid Office is to “facilitate the seamless use of an integrated cyber infrastructure in a secure, effective and efficient manner to advance scientific, engineering and biomedical R&D, with the longer term goal of transforming the Singapore economy using grid.” This presentation will focus on the second goal. We will share the initiatives towards achieving the adoption of Grid Computing by industry and business users. While there have been some initial successes, there are also challenges and issues encountered along the way.
Presentation 2: From the Grid to E-science
Presenter: Putchong Uthayopas, Director, Thai National Grid Center, SIPA, Thailand
As the National Grid infrastructure is now up and running in Thailand, the next step is to facilitate the moving of activities toward e-science. The key strategy is to encourage the forming and expansion of domain scientist communities and building a domain specific grid for each community. This presentation will share some thought and experience on the process of making the Grid more useful as an enabling platform for e-science. Currently, we can see the forming of Nano-science, Cheminformatics, Life Science, Computational Fluid Dynamics community around the Grid infrastructure. We hope to stimulate the use of grid power by people to do more effective work in science and technology research, development, and education in Thailand.
Presentation 3: Current status of Grid research and application in Vietnam
Presenter: Nguyen Thanh Thuy [Director HPC center, Dean Graduate School, Hanoi University of Technology]
Abstract: In this paper we shall present Current status of Grid research and application in Vietnam in the framework of the National Research and Development Project VNGrid 2007-2009 for setting up an initial grid infrastructure for Vietnam. Some experimentations that have been carried out at diferrent institutions in Vietnam, especially at Hanoi University of Technology, will be also discussed.
