• Traditional position of ICT in science: Application running on a single machine…
➨ Little ICT overhead, no collaboration and/or sharing of data and information
• Evolving technological developments like Grid, networks and Service Oriented Architecture allow sharing of data and information through distributed computing and storage, thus enabling scientific applications to do experiments that had not been possible before…
➨ Introduces large ICT overhead
➨ Requires extensive ICT knowledge
➨ Application scientist forced to focus on ICT problems rather than science

• On the other hand, e-Science is already based on Grid and other supporting ICT…
➨ To stimulate scientific applications to adopt e-Science an infrastructure is needed!
• Frameworks like VL-e are providing basic services which will hide computing resources and boost the development of data and computationally intensive e-Science applications on a large scale distributed infrastructure…
➨ Application scientist can increase his productivity, while focusing on his own science rather than on ICT problems

The Grid is harnessing geographically distributed resources, allowing seamless access to these resources and hiding ICT details.Every application has specific and generic parts,
like storage, computing and communication…
