The main objective of the Cracow Grid Workshops, which were initiated in 2001, is to support the community of researchers, developers, and practitioners who work in the fascinating field of e-Science, grid systems, and their applications.

CGW'08 will address the following topics:

e-Science, system-level science and collaborative applications,
models, methods and tools for collaborative applications development,
virtual laboratories and problem solving environments,
knowledge in e-Science and grid systems,
virtual organizations and security aspects,
resource management and scheduling,
monitoring and information management,
software engineering aspects,
industrial and social implications.


CGW'08, as the Central European Grid Consortium event, will be an opportunity for overview of research in the main European and national grid projects. This year Workshop will especially address the issues of National and European Grid Initiatives. At the first day of the Workshop presentations of several NGI's, as well as EGI-DS are foreseen. The speakers will include: P. Aerts, N. Geddes, J. Gomes, J. Kitowski, D. Kranzlmueller, J. Marco, M. Mazzucato, A. Read, U. Schwiegelshohn, G. Wormser.
