| Description | Grid computing as new paradigm of distributed computing is currently seen as major enabler of fulfilling up to date science research requirements demanding extreme computing power and/or large storage capacities. This has led to formation of the worldwide research infrastructure available for everyday scientific work providing access to massive computational/data resources. These resources are geographically dispersed, span multiple trust domains and are heterogenous. They can be dynamically contributed by different owner institutions, thus forming virtual pools accessible to users showing the appropriate credentials. This article describes VOCE - Virtual Organization for Central Europe - a grid production infrastructure available for researchers from the Central European region. |
