Hi, I just received this message and thought I would pass it along. Paul ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- From: SURA DevComm Mailing List [mailto:DEVELOPMENTCOMMITTEE@sura.org]On Behalf Of Matt Thomas Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2004 9:57 AM To: DEVELOPMENTCOMMITTEE@sura.org Subject: SURA IT Grid Workshop SURA University Research VP's, We are co-sponsoring a grid computing workshop (see below and attached) in early January that may be of interest to many in your IT and Computer Science Departments and other scientists who use distributed computing in their research. Please forward to anyone on your campus that you think may be interested in attending. Thank you, Matt Thomas SURA Director of Business Development Main 202-408-7872 Fax 202-408-8250 Mobile 202-550-8964 mthomas@sura.org _____ SURA Cyberinfrastructure Workshop: Grid Application Planning & Implementation Details & online registration: http://www.gsu.edu/~wwwacs/suragridconf/ This event will be held January 5, 6, & 7, 2005 at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA. and is proceeding with support from SURA and several industry leaders, including Sun Microsystems, James River Technical/SGI, United Devices, IBM, and AT&T. With this support, SURA is able to offer registration for this event at $110 per person. Register now and start your new year off right by: * extending your understanding of various definitions of "grid" and grid-based applications; * gaining insight into a broad range of applications that are benefiting from grids; * sharing recommendations and road maps for successful grid application deployment; * talking with grid experts about specific project needs and meeting others for collaboration and peer support in deploying grids today. Presentations from major grid application initiatives will illuminate the broader uses of grids, followed by case studies of "grid-enabled" application deployment in settings that range from institutional to international. Interactive sessions will provide additional depth on key topics, and wrap-up presentations on networking, funding, technology trends and support will leave you better prepared to move ahead with your own grid application deployment. Georgia State University Continuing Education Credits will also be available to those who attend the full workshop and complete and return the appropriate evaluation forms.
