Grid-enabled fusion of global data and local knowledge – applying the INWA Grid to eResearch links with China

该项目扩展了一个eResearch模型，该模型已在英国和澳大利亚之间的英国国家eScience中心和科廷大学的合作中得到证明，该合作利用网格技术模拟了电信和金融服务市场的消费者行为。2005年1月，INWA（西澳大利亚创新节点）网格扩展到中国科学院，现在为将这些技术应用于中国的新兴市场提供了可能。在世界上发展最快的经济体中建模和理解这些动态提供了许多有价值的产出，但也将允许网格支持跨三大洲的合作电子研究进行测试和开发。

This project extends a model of eResearch that has been demonstrated between the UK and Australia in a collaboration between the UK National eScience Centre and Curtin University that modelled consumer behaviour in telecommunications and financial services markets using Grid technologies. The INWA (Innovation Node – Western Australia) Grid was extended to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in January 2005 and now offers the potential for applying these techniques to emerging markets within China. Modelling and understanding these dynamics within the most rapidly developing economy in the world provides a number of valuable outputs but will also allow a Grid support for collaborative eResearch across three continents to be tested and developed.
