18. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201218 What must we do? Objectives & Aims

19. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201219 Extend the CHAIN Knowledge base with Data Infrastructures http://www.chain-project.eu/knowledge-base Support the study of data infrastructures for a few VRCs Promote trust building towards open scientific data infrastructures across the world regions Objectives & Aims

20. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201220 Study the opportunities of data sharing across different e- Infrastructures and continents Provide proof-of principle use-cases for Data sharing across the continents Objectives & Aims

21. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201221 And how…? Objectives & Aims

22. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201222 Performing an investigation on the data used by existing and potential trans-continental communities (VRCs) by profiting from the CHAIN legacy and by exploring new ones (T4.1) In order to avoid duplicated efforts and profit from other regions developments and data Performing an analysis on the commonalities and differences of the available data bases/repositories (format, range, granularity, etc.), their future challenges and the mostly related executed applications Taking into account the actions performed in WP3, results from T4.1 and feedbacks received during the CHAIN-REDS events (WP2) Objectives & Aims

23. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201223 Proposing at least two use cases, which show common format for the stored data by means of software developments that could make all of them compatible and interoperable Considering also the work done in WP5 Bearing then in mind sustainability Objectives & Aims

24. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201224 Actions… Actions

25. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201225 WP4 must perform a coordinated work with the rest of CHAIN WP Actions: internal collaboration

26. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201226 EGI and Continental/National Grid Initiatives offer continuous exchange and collaboration with data users and providers CHAIN-REDS partners are much aware of the developments that are carried out in their Regions Interaction Coordination Exchange of information Success stories Actions: EGI and CHAIN-REDS partners

27. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201227 CHAIN-REDS will explore the collaboration with AgINFRA (Agriculture) Climate change and Urban Vulnerability in Africa EarthServer (Earth Sciences) EFDA-ITM (Fusion) Elixir (Life Sciences) ENGAGE (Governmental) EUDATA (multidisciplinary) SuperB (HEP) UNESCO Brain Gain (Education) VAMDC (Atomic Physics and Astronomy) Actions: Pre-identified data communities

28. e-AGE 2012 – Dubai, 13 December 201228 The way well work is defined by our WP4 Tasks, which suppose a chronological row of steps forward Milestones should of course be fulfilled MS6 MoUs signed Intense collaboration with projects and initiatives world wide MS8 Technical Meeting on Federation of Clouds With a strong focus on Data issues too Actions: Internal road-map
