Progress since the 2004 meeting
EPSRC e-Science Meeting 2005
Aims of the meeting
• for the projects to learn more about each other (raise
general awareness, build on existing links between
projects, look for commonality and ways to leverage results
to avoid repetition, and to share experience & knowledge of
wider e-Science Grid issues)
• to develop synergy between the Pilot Projects and the
Computer Science for e-Science Projects
• learn more about the e-Science Programme and what
support it could provide.
• demonstrate what results have been achieved to date
