Summer Schools
WP3 will organise and conduct an annual programme of advanced grid education events including the continuation of the GGF International Summer Schools in Grid Computing, regional and specialist events. It will be led by KTH. It will undertake three strands of work:
A. Organisation of the International Summer Schools in Grid Computing.
B. Coordination with and support for other European advanced grid education events.
C. International collaboration for organising and presenting advanced grid education.
The International Summer School series is a well established and high-profile series of annual two-week summer schools attracting excellent students and world-leading experts. In the past three years it has been organised by the proposers of ICEAGE with an international programme committee. We are again organising it this year (2006) with administration from the EGEE training team at Edinburgh and local organisation and administration by the SPACI team. It received administrative help from GGF and was sponsored by CERN , GGF and the UK e-Science Core Programme. GGF is no longer able to offer administrative help.
ICEAGE will place this International Summer School Series on a firm footing by providing a framework for the planning, organisation and execution of the next two summer schools. It is important to be able to plan several years ahead to obtain the best speakers and venues.
