Successes, Opportunities, Challenges

PRAGMA19Putchong Uthayopas , Kasetsart University

+Successes

Community Building We are still here after all these years?

Best Practice and Idea Exchange New experiment, new technology NPACI Rock dominates Thailand now.

Platform for innovation PRAGMA grid test bed is important place to explore many new ideas

Application Driver PRAGMA demonstrate many time that large scale application can be

run across the world in a cooperative manner.

Creating a new generation of Grid and HPC engineer

+What I learn and gain from PRAGMA

How to build a community of researchers Applying to the building of ThaiGrid project

How to produce some collaborated work? SCMSweb grid monitoring Grid Infrastructure setup and maintenance

Improving human resources Former PRAGMA researchers from KU is now own their company

with technical skill learned from PRAGMA Globus, NPACI ROCKS setup etc.

AIST kindly provide a technical internship for one of our students.

Human network So many friends from many culture

+Opportunities

Rapid Technology Change Virtualization, Cloud, GPU, Multithreading Fast optical network (Thailand 10GBps Fiber)

Change in application demand Disaster Mitigation , Crisis Management Social Science and Cultural

Development of future generation researchers Education, training is an opportunity to spread the word

+Challenges

Better and stronger PRAGMA community Current core researchers Creating next generation researcher from the students

Technical and global

Better applications for a better world Natural disaster Bridging the Digital divide

Better Platform for Innovation Multi-cloud of virtualization and GPU

Better and sustainable model that make the PRAGMA last Funding model Organizational model
