Who we are
Helsinki Institute of Physics - Technology Program, HIP-TEK for short, has acquired hands-on
experience of Grid research and development by participating in several EU-wide projects since
2001. Our group is based at
CERN, Geneva (The Birth place of WWW and the World's largest
Computing Grid,
LCG)
and in Espoo Finland. Our expertise covers Grid/Cluster computing, security and Java technologies
in general. Our group's mission is Technology transfer, meaning we aim to establish industrial
project consortiums such as
NetGate.
We are members of
Liberty Alliance, EU Enabling Grids in eScience (EGEE), JBoss
Open Source Federation, and
NorduGrid projects.
