Supporting and structuring HealthGrid activities & research in Europe: developing a roadmap

Objective

European leadership on grid deployment is recognized at a world level. This leadership is also internationally acknowledged in the area of healthgrid. The concept of grids for health was born in Europe in 2002 and has been carried forward through the Healthgrid initiative. This European initiative has edited a white paper setting out for senior decision makers the concept, benefits and opportunities offered by applying newly emerging Grid technologies in a number of different applications in healthcare.

Starting from the conclusions of the White Paper, this proposal aims at identifying the important milestones to achieve the wide deployment and adoption of healthgrids in Europe. The proposal will devise a strategy to address the issues identified in the action plan for a European e-Health area described in the communication COM(2004) 356. It will also set up a roadmap for technological developments needed for successful take up of healthgrids in the next 10 years. Grid infrastructures are designed at a world level and the consortium therefore involves American and Asian participants in order for the resulting roadmap of the proposal to have relevance beyond Europe.
