1 Irish and European Grid Projects GRID Thibaut Lery, DIAS COSMOGRID

2 Grids - Grids - Grids Why do we need Grids? What are Grids? Grids in Ireland? Grids in Europe?

3 Why do we need Grids?

4 An Exponential World Network vs. computer performance Computer speed doubles every 18 months Network speed doubles every 9 months Difference = order of magnitude per 5 years 1986 to 2000 Computers: x 500 Networks: x 340, to 2010 Computers: x 60 Networks: x 4000 Moore s Law vs. storage improvements vs. optical improvements. Graph from Scientific American (Jan- 2001) by Cleo Vilett, source Vined Khoslan, Kleiner, Caufield and Perkins.

5 An Exponential World Network speed grows faster than Computer speed Communication between computers won t be the problem

6 The Quantity of Data is becoming HUGE Some calculations require huge resources

7 The answer is the GRID! What is a Grid?

8 GRIDS The Grid technology gives the ability for communities to share resources as they tackle common goals. Resources can be: Computers, video facilities, printers, robots Experiments, telescopes, models Databases, data, results.

9

10 There are 3 main types of Grids: 1. COMPUTATIONAL GRIDS: - Aggregate computing power - Distributed resources for a virtual computer 2. DATA GRIDS: - Shared large-scale databases - Catalogues of databases - Virtual databases 3. SERVICE GRIDS: - Real-time collaborative Grids - Virtual laboratories or observatories - Multimedia Grids (virtual reality) - On demand Grids (dynamical services)

11 The Grid World: Current Status Dozens of major Grid projects in scientific & technical computing/research & education Considerable consensus on key concepts and technologies Open source protocols & services Far from complete or perfect, but evolving rapidly and large tool/user base Industrial interest emerging rapidly Opportunity: convergence of escience and ebusiness requirements & technologies

12 Grids in Ireland?

13 Grid-Ireland 2000 TCD, UCC & NUI, Galway EI Strategic Grant DIAS & UCD HEA - PRTLI 3 (Recurrent only) NUI, G Marine 2003/4 (Capital?) Marine - GSI, MI SFI WebCom-G

14 - The FIRST IRISH GRID - Beowulf clusters added to existing clusters. - 5 Grid gateway machines. - 9 Institutions - 60 researchers - 15 Postdocs and 16 Ph.Ds Scientific Objectives: Astrophysics: High Energy Physics - Star formation Geophysics: Seismic inversion - Digital rocks Atmospheric Physics: Regional climate modelling

17 Grids in Europe?

18 Investments in Grids European countries are investing a lot of energy and money in trying to build a European community of Grids. Germany 100 M, France 200 M, UK 300 M EU 600 M SGI, SUN, HP 1-2 B (more for IBM)

19 Building the European Grid: DataGrid 11 countries 21 instutions

20 Using the European Grids: CrossGrid

21 The Future EGEE The pan-european production grid 70 partners including Russia, US, Canada & Japan GEANT Close links to industry Regional Operations Centre: TCD Resource Centres: TCD,UCC,NUIG,DIAS,UCD, April st EGEE Conference 1 st Conference 1 st WebCom-G Conference 400+ delegates e-infrastructure meeting
