Preface

The symposium was organised by the ERCIM1 CoreGRID Working Group (WG) funded by ERCIM and INRIA. This Working Group sponsored by ERCIM has been established with two main objectives: to ensure the sustainability of the CoreGRID Network of Excellence which is requested by both the European Commission and the CoreGRID members who want to continue and extend their successful co operation, and to establish a forum to foster collaboration between research communities that are now involved in the area of Service Computing: namely high performance computing, distributed systems and software engineering. CoreGRID2 officially started in September 2004 as an European research Network of Excellence to develop the foundations, software infrastructures and applications for large-scale, distributed Grid and Peer-to-Peer technologies. Since then, the Network has achieved outstanding results in terms of integration, working as a team to address research challenges, and producing high quality research results. Although the main objective was to solve research challenges in the area of Grid and Peer-to-Peer technologies, the Network has adapted its research roadmap to include also the new challenges related to service-oriented infrastructures, which are very relevant to the European industry as illustrated by the NESSI initiative3 to develop the European Technology Platform on Software and Services.
