From ARC to Know. ARC services WP 1 “Grid Foundations” creates the new service

From ARC to Know. ARC services WP 1 “Grid Foundations” creates the new service oriented structure from the current Nordu. Grid/ARC middleware and WP 2 “know-how sharing services” adds higher level “know-how sharing services” to the core services. WP 3 “Interoperability and highway to standards and policies” enables integration with other middlewares such as g. Lite of EGEE and other OGF compliant Grids WP 4 “Know. ARC Solutions for Society and Businesses” utilises the know-how services and adds application domain solutions. The core services are tested, certified and packaged into easily installed distributions in WP 5 “Software distribution, Quality assurance” WP 6 ensures “dissemination, exploitation and outreach” activities. During the entire project WP 7 takes care of the project “management”. 9/15/2020 www. knowarc. eu 10

Aim, Challenge, Innovation Know. ARC's approach and challenge is to design and deliver a complete, non-intrusive, lightweight, portable Grid solution, easy to set up and use. v This is achieved through non-invasive service-oriented modular architecture. Know. ARC will develop core grid middleware and higher level solutions for end-users v Current solutions are mostly • programming toolkits that need a lot of efforts from end users to set up and use • or special application- and environment- customized middlewares requiring centralised infrastructure. v Know. ARC aims to deliver a complete solution to be used by a majority of users without necessity to re-program their applications. Know. ARC will v extend ARC with newly emerging standards that will ensure interoperability, v equip it with services for industries and society, v be distributed with standard Linux distributions v integrate MS Windows architecture, Mac OS-X and Solaris 9/15/2020 www. knowarc. eu 15
