ACC and INCO Organisations in FP7-IST through the innovative use of the concept of "Grid Computing"

Objective

HAGRID is an ambitious and highly innovative Specific Support Action (SSA) aiming at implementing new methodologies and tools which are expected to boost the participation of committed newcomers - beginners in FP7-IST and create a long lasting effect, well beyond the lifetime of the project.
HAGRID mission is triple:
(i) to multiply the impact of existing and future similar SSAs by acting as facilitator,
(ii) to motivate and activate in FP7-IST European and INCO countries organisations that (can) have the capacity to successfully participate in FP7-IST, and
(iii) to enhance the capacity of European organisations and networks, which currently provide support and facilitate participation in the European Framework Programmes.

HAGRID aim is to provide an innovative Single Point of Access (SPOA) solution to newcomers and beginners in IST so as to accelerate their integration to the European Research Area (ERA) in IST.

HAGRID has two main objectives:
(1) To exploit the potential synergies between the more than 20 actual and future EU-funded accompanying actions (SSAs) supporting participation in ICT research, for the benefit of European and INCO organisations interested in participating in FP7-IST.
(2) To provide added value services tailored to the needs of any interested organisation.

To accomplish its targets HAGRID will
(i) develop a web-portal incorporating advanced ICT-based web-tools,
(ii) provide a number of e-Services that will allow for Single Point of Access (SPOA) and partner searches to the web databases of similar SSAs (through its web-portal),
(iii) optimise and deploy a set of Advanced Services (PR Research Profiles, Research Action Plans and Tailored Training Courses) to European organisations and will also
(iv) implement a set of conventional activities.

HAGRID will be implemented within 21 months by a multidisciplinary consortium consisted of 14 partners from 11 EU-28 countries.
