11stst workshop was held in March workshop was held in March 2002.2002.
Establish sustained collaborations Establish sustained collaborations and advance the use of the Grid and advance the use of the Grid technologies for applications.technologies for applications.
Expected outcomes:Expected outcomes:Advance scientific applicationsIncrease productive and effective use of the grid by researchers and scientists in the Pacific RimIncrease interoperability of grid middleware in Pacific Rim and throughout the world
Tightly collaborating with ApGrid.Tightly collaborating with ApGrid.Having workshops 2~3 times a year.Having workshops 2~3 times a year.
Pacific Rim Application and Grid Middleware
Assembly
Testbed in Asia Pacific – unique features –
Truly (naturally) multi national/political/institutional VO beyond boundarTruly (naturally) multi national/political/institutional VO beyond boundariesies
Not an application-dedicated testbed – general platformDiversity of languages, culture, policy, interests, …
Grid BYO – Grass roots approachGrid BYO – Grass roots approachEach institution contributes his resources for sharingNot a single source funded for the development
Physical resourcesPhysical resourcesMost contributed resources are small-scale clustersNetworking is there, however the bandwidth is not enough
We canWe canhave experiences on running international VOverify the feasibility of this approach for the testbed development

Status and problems
Most participating organizations have less interests in SecuMost participating organizations have less interests in Securityrity
Many participants are application peopleNot enough human resources working on securitySatisfy in using Globus Simple CA without providing CP/CPS

APGrid PMA approved that we accept two levels of CA:APGrid PMA approved that we accept two levels of CA:Experimental-level CA
Alternative of the Globus CACan be trusted within A-P communities
Production-level CAStrict management is necessaryExpected to be trusted by international communitiesKISTI GRID CA and AIST GRID CA has been approved as a production level CAASGC CA are under reviewing their CP/CPS (expected to be approved shortly)Australia has a plan to launch a new production-level CA
Questions (examples)Can TeraGrid trust AIST GRID CA?Can TeraGrid trust AIST GRID CA?
How is the procedure for reviewing?Do AIST GRID CA need to be reviewed by individual organizations (NCSA, PSC, SDSC, …)?If KISTI GRID CA wish to be trusted by TeraGrid, is separate review necessary? Can DOEGrid PMA be responsible?Can APGrid PMA help?
Can ApGrid/PRAGMA trust TeraGrid CA?Can ApGrid/PRAGMA trust TeraGrid CA?How is the procedure for reviewing?Do ApGrid/PRAGMA need to review all CAs (NCSA, PSC, SDSC, etc.)?Can APGrid PMA be responsible?Can DOEGrid PMA help?
KEK/Japan may launch a new CA.KEK/Japan may launch a new CA.Do the CA need to be reviewed by EUGrid PMA?Can APGrid PMA help?
How do we keep consistency of CP/CPS?How do we keep consistency of CP/CPS?Recently, Academia Sinica revised the CP/CPS
