| UNICORE will be a supported, product-quality GRID system | |
| A public domain license is available
for research purposes (www.unicore.org, from May 2002 on) |
|
| Interoperability with Globus is under way (GRIP project) | |
| New GRID standards (OGSA, Web Services, UDDI, SOAP,...) are under investigation and will be supported |
