Grid-enabled Astrophysics (Leopoldo Benacchio, Fabio Pasian eds.)
This volume collects the contributions to the “Computational Grids for Italian Astrophysics: Status and Perspectives” workshop, held at INAF headquarters, Rome, in November 2005.The workshop aimed at taking a snapshot of the status within the Italian astrophysical community of the development and usage of computational and data Grid(s), with particular reference to the status of the Grid.it (especially work-package 10, dedicated to astrophysical applications) and DRACO projects. The results obtained by the scientists participating in the two projects were summarised, to evaluate the effectiveness of the porting of scientific applications on the Grid, to recognise possible improvements, to foster cross-fertilisation with other sciences involved in Grid processing, to bring the requirements of astronomers to the attention of...
