SOLUTIONS
- Creating a multi-layer national communication infrastructure that will be interconnected at the individual layers with user networks as well as with national research networks abroad, the European GÉANT network and the global experimental infrastructure.
- Designing and implementing a fully featured national grid infrastructure (NGI) by developing and rebuilding CESNET’s current grid activities.
- Providing data storage capacities,implemented as a Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) solution, in two closely in the areas of clusters and the computational grid in general, and of the scientific, educational and related general data.
- Fostering a collaborative environment which will provide an infrastructure allowing collaboration without extensive traveling, making it much more efficient and environmentally friendly
