Second OGF Workshop On Reliability and Robustness in Grid Computing Systems

Grid computing systems based on emerging Web Service and Grid standards will
need to achieve levels of reliability and robustness necessary for
enterprise applications in industry and science. This workshop seeks to
bring together researchers and engineers whose organizations are actively
addressing these concerns to share experiences and to describe their
research in order to facilitate better understanding of grid reliability
issues and requirements.  For more information, see
