[THEGrid] Fwd: Workshop on Grid Application Planning & Implementation

[Alan Sill]

Please note workshop below.  In addition, for THEGrid we will be 
planning a workshop at TTU that will be a mix of "getting started" 
workshop sessions and tutorials along with longer-term planning 
sessions, to be held in the early fall.  (Stay tuned for more 
details...).

> Join both experts and peers for presentation and interaction to -
> * extend your understanding of grid concepts and applicability to
> advanced applications;
> * gain insight into a broad range of applications that are benefiting
> from grids;
> * share recommendations and road maps for successful grid application
> deployment;
> * establish contacts for ongoing collaboration and peer support.
>
> Presentations from major grid initiatives will illuminate the broader
> uses of grids, followed by case studies of "grid-enabling"
> applications. Interactive sessions will offer a closer look at key
> issues, and selected related topics will provide additional context
> for implementation - all designed to leave you better prepared to
> move ahead with grid application development or deployment.

> This workshop is appropriate for:
> - Faculty and researchers to learn more about grids and project
> groups beginning to use grids;
> - Application developers to better understand implementation
> considerations for running on a grid;
> - Funding agencies to disseminate information on funding opportunities;
> - Strategic planners to learn more about the "climate" of grid
> application deployment
> - Research officers to understand the "language of grids";
> - Campus teams (IT, application, policy, funding) working
> collaboratively on grid deployment.
>
> A post-event workshop is also being planned to offer additional depth
> on technical topics.
