• AEGIS Academic and Educational Grid
  Initiative of Serbia
• http//aegis.phy.bg.ac.yu/
• Founded in April 2005
• Missionto provide Serbian research and
  development community with reliable and
  sustainable grid infrastructure.
• Specific goals
• Coordinate efforts
• to further develop academic and educational high
  performance computing facilities
• to help integration into AEGIS infrastructure
• Organize dissemination and training activities
• Promote development and deployment of
  applications on AEGIS infrastructure
• Coordinate fund raising efforts to improve AEGIS
  infrastructure and human resources
• Facilitate wider participation of AEGIS members
  in FP6, FP7, and other national and international
  RTD projects
• Create a national GRID development policyLobby
  for its position within the national research
  development policy.

AEGIS Infrastructure (2)

• Storage resources currently very limited (lt 1 TB)
• Hardware upgrades expected both in CPUs and
  storage, mainly from National Investment plan
  to be discussed today

AEGIS VO and CA

• Established to support Serbian Grid users
• AEGIS VO managed and deployed at IPB
• Currently 27 users
• AEGIS CA managed and deployed by UOB-RCUB

EGEE-II sketch

• more than 90 institutions in 32 countries
• providing a seamless Grid infrastructure for
  e-Science, available for scientists 24
  hours-a-day
• Expanding from originally two scientific fields,
  high energy physics and life sciences, EGEE now
  integrates applications from many other
  scientific fields, ranging from geology to
  computational chemistry

12
EGEE-II Infrastructure

• 243 sites in 50 countries
• 11 Federations ROCs
• 49k CPUs
• 16.7 PB of storage available
• 12.9 PB of storage used
• All services available with multiple redundancy
• More details on EGEE-II technical web site

Serbia in EGEE/EGEE-II

• IPB joined EGEE as unfunded effort in May 2005
• IPB officially one of the partners in EGEE-II
• Part of EGEE-SEE ROC
• http//egee.phy.bg.ac.yu/
• IPB will also participate in EGEE-III
