EchoGRID (European and Chinese Co-operation on Grid) is an ERCIM-managed road-mapping project that has established synergies with similar initiatives and projects to map out future research priorities in areas like new programming paradigms, grid architectures, service-oriented architectures, Grid management, virtual organisation, component models, and workflows and business processes. EchoGRID, which is actively engaged in Grid open standards, supported an OGF23 session on roadmaps and strategic research agendas featuring NESSI-Grid, Challengers, CoreGRID, 3S, and NEXOF-RA to define common strategies and future activities within OGF.
An extended report on OGF32 by Stephanie Parker has been published in Grid Today.
