[ogf20pc] Suggestions for GMB Panels

[william fellows]

Hi PC and sorry for the delayed response to Bob's comment
on The 451 Group's OGF20 contribution.

Not sure which dodgy outlets you have been reading Bob
but it certainly is not 451 research!

Indeed our recently published Grid Adoption Research Service
report on "Grid Computing - The State of the Market" examines how  
grid is now
being used as a means to achieve all kinds of objectives. I'd be glad  
to share
the findings of this work - 15 in depth studies across a number of  
vertical markets - with
any of the PC (and OGF20). FWIW we're now tracking some 250+  
commercial users of grid,
our work shows grids are alive and kicking and invite you to  take a  
look at your
convenience to confirm this!

cheers
William

OGF20 “Grid Means Business” track

Status as of 19th Feb 2007


This memo lists the possible speakers for each GMB session.  We have  
received some proposals via the CFP and personal contact, which I  
list as “Proposed”.  Other people have been suggested during PC  
calls; we need to check the status of these.

There is some overlap between the suggestions for some of these  
sessions.

We might also invite talks via CoreGrid (c.f. their workshop proposal).

1.   GMB: Setting the scene

Confirmed

Paul Strong (Ebay)
William Fellows (451 Group) [State of Union -> Paths for Adoption] –  
Members of the PC should note that the last 451 Group report declared  
that Grids might be dead. Comments???? Is that the setting of the  
scene that would be helpful to kickoff the meeting?
