eSTORM3 : e-Science Technical OpeRations Meetings 3

英国电子科学计划是由科学和技术办公室（OST）作为政府开支审查SR 2000的结果而建立的。该方案由两个基本部分组成，即核心方案和个别研究理事会活动。每个研究理事会都有其职权范围内的电子科学项目预算;核心方案的作用与研究理事会方案相互垂直;其主要目标之一是开发通用的网格中间件（在研究理事会活动中制定并为研究理事会活动提供），行业参与电子科学活动，开发一个有效的联合王国电子科学网格，并支持和协调研究理事会的各种方案。EPSRC代表所有研究理事会与贸易和工业部（DTI）合作管理eSCP。该方案在国际上取得了广泛的成功，并在2002年和2004年特别报告中继续实施。该计划得到了年度全体电子科学会议（AHM）的成功帮助，该会议聚集了来自英国各地的领先创新者和应用科学家，以及相关的应用务虚会和技术会议。这些会议有助于协调和向所有联合王国电子科学家传播核心计划的职能，并提高联合王国电子科学在国际上的形象。

The UK e-Science Programme was established by the Office of Science and Technology (OST) as a result of the Government Spending Review SR2000. The Programme consists of two basic elements, a core Programme and individual research council activities. Each Research Council has a budget for e-Science projects within its remit; the role of the Core Programme interacts orthogonally with the Research Council programmes; amongst its major aims are development of generic Grid middleware (developed in the Research Council activities and provided for the Research Council activities), engagement of industry in e-Science activities, development of a working UK e-Science Grid and support for and coordination of the various Research Council programmes. The EPSRC, on behalf of all the Research Councils, is managing eSCP in collaboration with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). The programme has been a widely acknowledged international success, and has continued under SR2002 and SR2004. The programmme has been aided by the success of the annual All Hands E-Science Meetings (AHM) which has gathered leading innovators and application scientists together from across the UK, and from related application retreats and technology meetings. These meetings aid the functions of co-ordination and dissemination of the core programme to all UK e-Scientists and raise the profile of UK e-Science internationally.This proposal seeks to provide the means to continue these activites in support of the core programme.
