[cloud-standards-forum] EU funded project SIENA standards & Interoperability for eInfrastructure implementation Initiative (June 2010 -May 2012)

[Silvana Muscella]

Dear Clouds-Standards forum,

I wanted to inform you of an new and interesting new initiative
(currently under the final phase of negotiation) supported by the
European Commission called SIENA, the Standards and Interoperability for
eInfrastructure Implementation Initiative (2010-2012), which is expected
to contribute to defining a future eInfrastructures roadmap focusing on
interoperability and standards, in close collaboration with the European
Commission, Distributed Computing Infrastructures (DCI) projects and
Standard Development Organisations (SDOs) to gain an in-depth
understanding of how distributed computing technology is being developed
in this context. The roadmap intends to define scenarios, identify
trends, investigate the innovation and impact sparked by cloud and grid
computing, and deliver insight into how standards and the policy
framework is defining and shaping current and future development and
deployment in Europe and globally.
SIENA is a follow-up to the OGF-Europe project (www.ogfeurope.eu) we
would like to engage more closely with this forum and see how the
clouds-standards.org can engage closely with SIENA and contribute to the
development of this roadmap on “Grids and Clouds for Research and for
Public Services”.
In the meantime I ask you to simply download the fact sheet on the
following website for further details on SIENA.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for further information you may have
best wishes
Silvana
