PRAGMA has been founded as an open organization
in which Pacific Rim institutions will collaborate more formally to develop
grid-enabled applications and will deploy the needed infrastructure throughout
the Pacific Region to allow data, computing, and other resource sharing.
Based on current collaborations, PRAGMA will enhance these collaborations
and connections among individual investigators by promoting visiting scholars'
and engineers' programs, building new collaborations, formalizing resource-sharing
agreements, and continuing trans-Pacific network deployment. PRAGMA provides
an opportunity for member institutions to work together to address applications
and infrastructure research of common interest.
This website is a unique collaboration
among webmasters from four different countries, to include Japan, Korea,
Singapore, and the U.S.
A series of workshops has been inaugurated with the
first being held in March, 2002 at the San Diego Supercomputer
Center at the University of California at San
Diego. Attendees were warmly welcomed to Seoul,
Korea for the 2nd workshop, held at the Westin Chosun Hotel on July 10-11,
2002, and hosted by the Korea Institute of Science and Technology
Information (KISTI).
Subsequent meetings are currently scheduled to be held in January 2003 (Japan),
June 2003 (Australia) and October 2003 (Taiwan).
