Integration across computational scales

Following the opening welcome from Prof Dame Nancy Rothwell, the President and Vice-Chancellor  of the University of Manchester the first keynote presentation from Prof Peter Coveney updated the EGI community on the UK e-infrastructure situation as well as the need from a number of communities for access to resources from multiple providers at multiple scales, i.e. from EGI, EUDAT and PRACE for example. This is the nirvana to interoperability and should eventually be standardised between different e-infrastructure provided by the public and private sectors.
