Description
- EPIKH
The EPIKH project officially started on the 1st of March 2009. The strategic aims of the EPIKH
project are to:
• Reinforce the impact of e-Infrastructures in scientific research defining and delivering
stimulating programme of educational events, including Grid Schools and High Performance
Computing courses;
• Broaden the engagement in e-Science activities and collaborations both geographically and
across disciplines.
These goals translate into the following specific actions:
• Spreading the knowledge about the “Grid Paradigm” to all potential users: both system
administrators and application developers through an extensive training programme;
• Easing the access of the trained people to the e-Infrastructures existing in the areas of action of
the project;
• Fostering the establishment of scientific collaborations among the countries/continents involved
in the project.
