Upcoming: Open Grid Forum
February 18th, 2009 • Comments Off on Upcoming: Open Grid ForumThe next meeting of the Open Grid Forum is coming up. From March 2nd till 6th we will meet in Catania, Italy. Definitely not the worst place to be. The schedule is already up and some interesting meetings are available. Because of some shameless self promotion I want to point out to:

- From Grids to Clouds, a workshop for grid users facing the Cloud
- SAGA working group session
I will give presentations, chair groups and on top of that be very happen when I could meet you at OGF 25 🙂
