1. OGF22 Call For Participation
The OGF22 CFP deadline is tomorrow, December 21. As with previous OGF
events, we are soliciting proposals for content that supports our mission of
accelerating grid adoption in both research and industry. While all proposed
content related to grid technology and usage is welcome, content related to
the following topics is being particularly sought:
-OGF Specification Adoption (aimed at showcasing projects and technologies
that implement OGF specifications)
-Pharma/Life Sciences (ranging from projects that have turned to or
developed grid-based solutions or those still in the exploration phase)
-Financial Services (addressing various dynamic and virtualized resources
allowing for flexibility in optimizing compute-data proximity in this
space).
The complete CFP can be viewed at http://ogf.org/OGF22/cfp.php.
