                 Grid Interoperability and Interoperation 
                       Workshop 2007 (IGIIW 2007)

                   to be held in conjunction with

  3rd IEEE - Int. Conference on e-Science and Grid Computing 2007
         Bangalore, India, December 10th -- 13th, 2007

SCOPE

The workshop will discuss the interoperability and interoperation aspects of
current Grid and Web technologies, production Grid infrastructures in
general, and the interoperability through emerging open standards in
particular. In the context of this workshop, the difference between
interoperability and interoperation is as follows: Interoperation is
specifically defined as what needs to be done to get production Grid
infrastructures (e.g. DEISA, EGEE, TeraGrid, OSG) to work together as a fast
short-term achievement using as much existing technologies as available
today. Hence, this is not the perfect solution and different than
interoperability that is defined as the native ability of Grids and Grid
middleware (UNICORE, gLite, Globus Toolkit) to interact directly via well
defined interfaces and common open standards. This will enable cross-Grid
use cases and applications from a growing range of domains in industry and
science.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners
working in the area of interoperability and interoperation within Grid
infrastructures and distributed environments, to exchange and share their
experiences, new ideas, and latest research results as well as open
problems. Enough time for intensive discussions will be provided and
outcomes of the workshop will be summarized in the session.


TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to:

  * Cross-Grid scientific and business applications 
  * Grid system components that enable interoperability/interoperation 
  * Boundaries and open problems related to interoperability/interoperation 
  * Scientific/business scenarios for Grid interoperability/interoperation
  * Cross-Grid brokering and workflows, semantics and languages 
  * Security challenges/solutions for Grid interoperability/interoperation 
  * Management & monitoring of interoperable/interoperating Grids 
  * Visualizations for applications of more than one Grid environment 
  * Grid middleware interoperability/interoperation 
  * Roadmaps of Grid technologies for interoperability/interoperation 
  * Performance evaluation of interoperable/interoperating Grid components 
  * Reliability & fault-tolerance during interoperability/interoperation 
  * Autonomic behavior in Grid interoperability/interoperation
