36. ICT 7 2014: Advanced Cloud Infrastructures and Services Specific Challenge: Cloud computing is being transformed by new requirements such as heterogeneity of resources and devices, software- defined data centres and cloud networking, security, and the rising demands for better quality of user experience. Cloud computing research will be oriented towards new computational and data management models (at both infrastructure and services levels) that respond to the advent of faster and more efficient machines, rising heterogeneity of access modes and devices, demand for low energy solutions, widespread use of big data, federated clouds and secure multi- actor environments including public administrations. The aim is to develop infrastructures, methods and tools for high performance, adaptive cloud applications and services that go beyond the current capabilities, strengthening the competitive position of the European industry, including SMEs on a time horizon beyond 2018 and building upon European strengths in telecoms and mobile infrastructures as well as software applications and services. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323

37. Structural Fund Workshop Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to invite you to a workshop on cloud and structural funds that will take place on 6th of February from 11h00 until 16h00 in Brussels, Avenue de Beaulieu 1. The objective of the workshop is to discuss cloud-related projects in Member States that would provide an added value in respect to ICT investment priorities in the European Regional Development Fund. Cloud computing can be a major enabler for innovation, growth in productivity and competitiveness, therefore it is important to identify and address barriers to take-up of cloud computing services at regional level. The workshop aims to identify top challenges of financing cloud-related projects within SMEs and the public sector by the ERDF. The workshop will bring together, Commission officials, local actors, as well as people behind projects in nine Member States: Romania, Slovakia, Poland, Italy, Greece, Spain, Hungary, Slovenia and Portugal. Attached, you will find a draft agenda. Can you please confirm your attendance to my assistant Federica Tagliani at Federica.tagliani@ec.europa.eu. Should you have additional questions, do not hesitate to contact me. Kind regards and happy holidays, Jacek Starczewski Policy Officer www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323

39. Nuova proposta per Call EINFRA-1-2014 Topic 3 A Proposal for a customized PaaS scientific platform on top of available IaaS infrastructure services. There are many software IaaS solutions available, offered by public infrastructures and private companies as a service. (e.g. OpenStack, Open Nebula, Stratuslab, Amazon Elastic Computing). This proposal envisions to develop a new scientific stack to be operated on the most mature service at the time the project starts. [] OpenStack (www.openstack.org) [] Open Nebula (www.opennebula.org) [] StatusLab (www.stratuslab.eu) [] Amazon Elastic Computing (EC2, Amazon.com) The projects aim at providing PaaS services for: 1. Job Workload Management 2. Storage and Data access and Data Transfer 3. Workflow Management 4. Federated Authentication, Authorization and Identity Management (AAI) 5. Infrastructure integration 1. Monitoring, Accounting Service Registration www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
