Background and motivation: PRAGMA
• PRAGMA (Pacific Rim Applications and Grid Middleware)
– an open organization in which Pacific Rim institutions and universities 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.
– Led by Dr. Peter Arzberger, UCSD
– Working groups
• Resource & DataGrid Working Group
promoting resource sharing
• Geo Science Working Group
developing data grid technology and its application
• Bioscience Working Group
developing grid technology useful and practical for
•
biology eg. Grid portal for life science
Telescience Working Group

Background and motivation: PRIME
• PRIME
– Started at University of California, San Diego in 2004
– An educational project which provides an international research and cultural
experience to better prepare students for the global workplace of the 21 st
century
– Undergraduate students are supposed to engage in the research and
development work set in advance by mentors in UCSD and the accepting
institution.
• Through the collaboration with with researchers, scientists, and students in
institutions and universities in the Pacific Rim (PRAGMA members), students are
expected to learn the importance of international collaboration for their future.
– Until today, the following institutions have
accepted students from UCSD.
Australia: Monash University
China: CNIC, CAS
Taiwan: NCHC (National Center for High-Performance
Computing)
Japan: Osaka University

Background and Motivation of PRIUS project
• Osaka University (the Graduate school of information science
and technology and Cybermedia Center) has been collaborating
in R&D activities for a long time through PRAGMA community.
– PRAGMA (Pacific Rim Applications and Grid Middleware Assembly)
has been promoted since 2002.
– Researchers and scientists in pacific rim countries has participated
in R&D activities under the leadership of UCSD.
• Also, Osaka University has a role of importance in PRIME
project, an educational program for undergraduate students in
UCSD.
– PRIME project allows UCSD students to stay in host countries
for about three months for skill building and cultural experience.
– Osaka University is an institution that has accepted
ten students since 2004.
Background and Motivation
• Success of PRAGMA community
– Accumulated Expertise and practice of building Highly advanced Grid
applications and middleware
– Formation of Human network of researchers and scientists in pacific rim
Maturity of PRAGMA R&D network
• Activation of Educational activities
–
PRIME: Providing UCSD students with an opportunity of experiencing,
studying, and learning highly sophisticated technology and cultural
background through practical R&D with PRAGMA partners.
Stimulating the movement toward
the establishment of PRAGMA Educational network
What is PRIUS Project?
• A selected project for University Education Internationalization
Promotion Program promoted by MEXT (Ministry of Education,
Culture, Sports, Science and Technology)
– This education program is expected to be promoted to improve Japanese
advanced education in international compatibility and commonality as well as
enhance the international competitive power in Japanese advanced education.
• Just 15 of total 104 proposed projects have been accepted in
2005.
– As to national universities, only 9 universities started their own projects in the
year
• Osaka University started “Fostering of Globally-leading
Researchers in Integrated Sciences”
– The project is expected to be a 4-year project from 2005.
– The budget estimated is 30 millions yen (280 thousand dollars) each year.
Purpose of PRIUS
• Taking maximum advantage of both R&D and educational
networks brought by the existent PRAGMA framework, we
aim to establish an consistent educational infrastructure that
provides graduate students with the opportunities to widen
their international perspective.
• Through the established educational infrastructure, PRIUS
aims to produce the students who have the ability to take a
leadership in this recent “globalized” world.

Summary of PRIUS
• We are moving toward the establishment and advancement
of educational network on the existent PRAGMA R&D
network.
• The educational network provides students with the
opportunities to take classes by PRAGMA researchers and
scientists and have an experience of collaborating with
PRAGMA researchers for practical Grid application on
PRAGMA.
• We would like to ask for your help and participation.
