NGS: International Summer School on Grid Computing

为了支持实际操作的实验室会议，将建立一个测试平台，该平台将托管由美国、欧盟和亚太地区（AP）的项目生产的广泛使用的中间件。该试验台将连接到主要的国际科学网格，从而为动手学习和实验提供丰富的环境。实验室将为每两个学生配备一台电脑。目标受众包括最近开始（或即将开始）从事网格计算项目的年轻研究人员和实践者（来自技术行业、研究实验室和学术环境）。这所学校将产生广泛的影响，因为它将培养大量的研究人员从事网格项目，包括构建和部署网格基础设施，并将其用于应用程序。申请入学的学生从事各种应用领域的网格项目，包括天文学、生物学、化学、地球科学、医学和物理学。还有一些学生参与了网格中间件和网格网络技术的研究项目。因此，这所学校将与对网格技术有很好理解的人一起开展许多项目。

To support the hands-on laboratory sessions, a testbed will be established that will host widely used middleware produced by projects in the US, the EU, and in Asia Pacific (AP). The testbed will be connected to major international science grids and thus provide a rich environment for hands-on learning and experimentation. The laboratory will be populated with one PC for every two students. The target audience consists of young researchers and practitioners (from technical industries, research laboratories, and academic environments) who have recently started (or are about to start) working on grid computing projects. The school will have a broad impact because it will prepare a substantial number of researchers to engage in grid projects, both building and deploying grid infrastructure and using it for applications. The students who have applied for admission are engaged in grid projects for a wide variety of application areas, including astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth science, medicine, and physics. There are also students who are involved in projects that are conducting research on grid middleware and on network technologies for grids. As a result, this school will seed many projects with people who have gained a good understanding of grid technologies.
