About OGF23
The global grid community will gather for
Open Grid Forum’s twenty-third event in Barcelona, Spain on 2-6 June,
2008, strategically placed in easy reach of many European & global
experts. Hosted by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, OGF23 is also the
first international event where the recently EU-funded OGF-EUROPE project,
will play a primary organizing role in the overall event and the program.
This project focuses on mobilizing and integrating communities on grid
standards & best practices. During a portion of the week (3-5 June),
the EU-funded BEinGRID project will be co-locating its "Industry Days"
event which includes results of their business experiments using grid technologies.
BEinGRID will also show numerous demonstrations of grid deployments in
various commercial environments. A small commercial exhibition will also
be an important part of this multi-faceted event.
