The software has various efforts of the open source community, including NorduGrid / ARC and the Globus Toolkit, the latter contributed as a member of the Academic Partner globe. The group is also a member of the Working Group on Service Oriented Infrastructure NESSI.
The Free Scholarship Online research is in collaboration with the High Performance Computing Center North (HPC2N) and the Research Laboratory conducted Umeå University UMIT. HPC2N is a key member of the Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC), providing expertise and resources, including resources of the network. HPC2N active Swegrid, NDGF, NorduGrid and EGEE. UMIT is an environment for interdisciplinary research in science, high performance, distributed, real-time and visual computing, and industrial applications.The stipends
