abstract = {International e-Infrastructures offer a wide variety of
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) services
that federate computing, storage, networking and other
hardware in order to create an ’innovative toolset’ for
multidisciplinary research and engineering. UNICORE services
are known to be secure, reliable, and fast providing
researchers all over the world with powerful software that
enables the use of those e-Infrastructures as a ’commodity
tool’ in daily geographically distributed activities. As
key technology provider of the European Grid Infrastructure
(EGI), UNICORE is available as part of the Unified
Middleware Distribution (UMD) serving the needs of
researchers that require mainly High Throughput Computing
(HTC). On the other end of the scale, UNICORE offers
specifically optimized resources within the Partnership for
Advanced Computing in Europe (PRACE) today. Beyond Europe,
UNICORE installations are emerging more and more such as
within the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery
Environment (XSEDE) US multi-disciplinary e-Infrastructure
(aka Cyberinfrastructure) offering both HTC and HPC
resources. The grand challenges in science, engineering, and
in society that need to be solved towards 2020 and beyond
will increasingly require both geographical and intellectual
collaboration across multiple disciplines. International
e-Infrastructures are considered to be one key toolset to
tackle those grand challenges and this contribution will
outline several options how UNICORE can remain one
’technology of choice’ towards 2020. A strategic roadmap
is presented that illustrates the role of UNICORE alongside
the European Commission’s (EC) vision for Europe in 2020,
including the opportunities that arise for UNICORE in the
context of the Digital Agenda for Europe. The roadmap also
includes how UNICORE can play a role to tackle, or perhaps
rather contribute with processing to the avoidance of ’big
data waves’ arising from a wide variety of
e-Infrastructure users emerging from the European Strategy
Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRIs).},
