EGEE Tutorial
9-10
February 2006
0900 - 1700 hrs @ The Big One
Institute for Infocomm Research
21 Heng Mui Keng Terrace, Singapore 119613
Course
Description
The EGEE tutorial aims at not only providing in-depth lectures
on the EGEE gLite middleware but also offering hands-on practical
exercises using gLite on GILDA to those who are interested
in application development on the EGEE infrastructure.
In addition, the tutorial provides a good opportunity for
further exchanges between the Singapore and EGEE projects,
towards future collaboration and interoperability.

Pre-requisites
for this workshop:
Participants
are asked to bring a laptop to the tutorial. Please refer
to http://egee-na4.ct.infn.it/ct_may_24/requirements.php for information about software required for the practicals.
Note: In a practical session to be conducted on Day 2, the
participants will be able to upload their own code to run
on the GILDA grid. These programs should require no more
than 10 minutes of CPU time, so that results can be seen
during the practical session.

of the Instructors
Dr. Valeria Ardizzone, Istituto Nazionale di Fisica
Nucleare (Italy)
 |
Dr.
Valeria Ardizzone was born in Catania (Italy) in
June 24, 1975.
She
graduated in Computer Science at University of
Catania in 2003. Her professional course is Software
Technician and her thesis title was “Design,
development and installation of an Intelligent
and Mobile Agents Platform (IMAP) FIPA complaint”. |
Since
2001 to 2003, she has been involved with a fixed time
contract in research activity relative to EEC Project “E-Arbitration
Tribunal: An Alternative Dispute Resolution for SMEs” at
Computer and Telecommunications Engineering Department,
University of Catania.
Since 2004 she is involved in Grid Computing activity
relative to Enable Grid for E-sciencE (EGEE) Project,
at Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare. Within the
EGEE activity, she is working around the Networking Activity
for Application Identification and Support (NA4) and
Policy and International Cooperation (NA5).
Her interest cover Web Architecture Design, Web Programming
Languages, Web Design and E-Content for Dissemination
Activity.
Dr. Emidio Giorgio, Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare
(Italy)
 |
Dr.
Emidio Giorgio has his degree in Computer Science
at the Catania University in 2003, with a thesis
about automatic recognition of patterns in images.
Soon later he has begun his collaboration with
INFN on computational grids, joining the EGEE project
in the NA3 and NA4 area, involving training and
support to user applications. |
The most significant experiences in the project are
the participation as tutor at the 2nd and 3rd International
School on Grid Computing, held in Vico Equense in the
summer of 2004 and 2005, participation as tutor at the
Training Day in the 4Th EGEE conference held in Pisa
on October 2005, and the participation as instructor
to the First Latin American Workshop for Grid Administrators,
held in Merida, Venezuela, in November 2005. In total,
as at the end of November 2005, he has participated as
tutor in 16 EGEE tutorial or demonstrations, giving remote
support for many others.
On the GILDA testbed in Catania he has installed and
configured many of the gLite services (WMS, LB, IO server,
Fireman catalog, UI), starting from its very first release
on march 2005, and taking care of upgrades for some of
them till the current version.
On application support, his most significant experience
was supporting the computational chemistry community
at the first successful EU review of the EGEE project.
He also developed a patch which adds an (actually limited)
support to VOMS proxies into MyProxy suite.
Apart from Grid activities, he is also interested in
web-programming and system administration. In this context,
he has developed several tools and configured network
services for the grid IT-infrastructure in Catania.

Dr.
Ruediger Berlich has studied physics at the University
of Bochum in Germany. Until 2001 he was a member
of SuSE Linux AG, then Europe's leading Linux distributor.
Among other duties, he has served as Technical
Manager (Support) of SuSE's US office in Oakland/California
and as founder and Managing Director of SuSE's
UK office SuSE Linux Ltd. near London/UK. |

In January 2004, he finished a PHD at Bochum University,
relating to particle physics and distributed computing.
Since then he has been active in the field of Grid Computing
at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Germany's largest independent
research institution.
Apart
from his research activities, he is responsible for
the work areas "training" and "dissemination
and outreach" of the largest EU Grid initiative,
EGEE ("Enabling Grids for E-SciencE"), on behalf
of the German/Swiss EGEE federation. To find out more
