Dear PC members, I attach my notes from last week's meeting. Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, 16th January, and will focus on suggestions for speakers. The first half of the meeting will cover the entire programme; after 30 minutes we will concentrate on suggestions for the industry/enterprise track. (If this is your particular interest, you are welcome to join the call 30 minutes in). Please send suggestions for speakers to me or to this list, especially if you are unable to attend Tuesday's call. Time: 8am PST / 10am CST / 11am EST / 4pm GMT / 5pm CET / 2am JST / 3am Sydney International dialin: +44 145 254 2309 USA Freephone: 1 866 838 0046 UK number: 0845 245 0224 Australia Freephone: 180 010 9603 Passcode: 275359 Best wishes, Dave Berry Deputy Director, Research & E-infrastructure Development National e-Science Centre, 15 South College Street Edinburgh, EH8 9AA +44 131 651 4039
I will be attending this call, at least listening. I'll be on a train so might be hesitant to unmute due to the background noise. However, I have solicited a few speakers/talks. It looks like we'll have a couple of speakers from Cardiff University talking about working to help grid enable some industry partners and possibly some grid applications they have also developed (could be up to 4 talks). There will be one from a software measurement company about how they avoided using a dedicated cluster and instead modified their software to work with a customer's shared grid. I've also informed Microsoft of OGF-20 and got some early interest, but haven't had a specific follow-up. Dave, are you aware of engagement with MS? (Actually I requested MS customer stories relating to grid successes, possibly with MS software, but not MS presentations directly). Also, I have a variety of presentations I can do ranging from Grid best practices, success with a wide-range of applications (contrary to some believe that grid is only good for a few application types), to a grid disk cache model employing desktop pcs. I haven't submitted a specific talk via the link, but let me know if you are looking for anything along the above lines and I'm happy to fill in. Cheers, ~Brooklin

Dave, I have a meeting that might run over. However, Cybula Ltd. can offer a talk on the use of the DAME/BROADEN technology in the wide (Rail, Oil and Gas etc) and on Grid based distributed search. Perhaps one on the White Rose Grid, outreach experiences from Leeds/Sheffield/York too.

Dear Dave, I'm still awake tonight :-) Once again please correct the time table that 4pm GMT is 1am JST (my time) for the next use. Anyway, I have read through the minute and would like to suggest speakers from our neighbours in Asia Pacific region. Indeed, I have already spoken to a couple of my grid venture friends in Korea, Singapore as well as Japan who runs various grid business such as disaster recovery (DR) service, utility computing (Grid SaaS), etc. The business is not such large but they look very well. When I solicited them to give a presentation in the OGF event, quite frankly I was not prepared for the question given by them what was their benefit up there. Yes, the OGF community may get benefit from their precious experiences, but they don't. In fact with such a small company but quite active to make business by adopting grid technology, their primary focus is making money from day-to-day business within their reach, maybe domestic. As such, they might not be so interested in the OGF activity in general. Since I have had very little words to convince them, I would like to ask the folks here what to do the next. Maybe this is an open question to all. looking forward to talking with you shortly, best regards Satoshi Sekiguchi, AIST

Hi Dave, Apologies for not being able to make the call this morning - I have other commitments. I have a number of contacts in the City who I will ping to see if they are interested in speaking. Unfortunately it appears there is a financial services Grid conference in London 2 weeks before OGF20. I tried to get Amazon.com on board but they seem uninterested in both speaking and grid standards participation (I think I mentioned this, but just in case). I am also perfectly happy to speak about eBay specifically (a la GGF18 with updates), enterprise grids in general (why Grids are the context for all distributed computing in the enterprise), or the OGF if desired - I am the acting chair of the board right now.
