The goal of the Symposium is to provide a forum to promote interaction between the principal communities that are developing technologies related to the problems of accessing and managing globally distributed data in support of global science collaborations.
It is organized around invited and featured speakers and also papers submitted in response to the attached Call. Essentially every EU project related to this general topic is represented by the PI and key researchers. It will be an excellent opportunity to interact informally with a captive and interested audience.
