    • Quo Vadis?
  • Afternoon Session
    • Jenny Ure Presentation 13:30
      • Think that there are a range of abstractions associated with the way technical and distributed human resources are aligned (often by default) that are crucial for the usability and sustainability of Grid systems whic hare currently very low profile, but which have been consistently adsociated with lack of commercial uptake. I note that the exception to this seems to be in work done by people lilke Cliff Joslyn and Luis Rocha in Los Alamos who have allways taken a socio-technical approach the design of large scale distributed systems tha thave to work in practice. In this they have always drawn on models/abstractions from autonomous and distributed systems in biology, with design principles based around hte idea of coupled systems.
