Description
The Baltic Grid project aims to develop and integrate the research and education computing and communi-cation infrastructure in the Baltic States into the Euro-pean Grid infrastructure (primarily focus is EGEE). The partners involved are KTH (Sweden), EENET (Es-tonia), NICPB (Estonia), IMCS (Latvia), IFJ PAN (Po-land), PSNC (Poland), VU (Lithuania), RTU (Latvia), ITPA (Lithuania) and CERN. In March 2005 Baltic Grid proposal (FP6). 30 months 3M€ project coordianted by KTH PDC (Stockholm) with partners being 10 leading institu-tions in six countries of the Baltic Region

The goal of the BalticGrid project is to extend the European Grid by integrating new partners from the Baltic States (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia) in the European Grid research community and to foster the development of Grid infrastructure in these countries. To this end, the BalticGrid consortium has enlisted the help of experienced EU Grid computing centers whose aim will be to guide our new partners through the process of deploying Grid resources and applications at their respective institutions.
