Enhancing ICT Research Infrastructure in Poland: Development Program 2007-2013

The ICT Research Infrastructure Development Programme (2007-2013) in Poland aimed to advance the country's research capabilities by establishing high-performance computing centers and developing nationwide network infrastructures. Supported by the Polish government since the 1990s, the program facilitated the integration of Polish researchers with the European Research Area, providing access to advanced e-Science tools and services. Funding from both national budgets and EU sources enabled the growth of scientific networks and ICT applications across various domains, including e-Education and e-Health.

  4. Grids as a part of Polish e-Infrastructure • Polish GRID projects enabling the resource sharing and delivering e-Science services • SGI-Grid – Virtual Laboratory • CLUSTERIX – National Cluster of LINUX Systems • Virtual Library of Science (BWN) • many others

  5. The ICT Research Infrastructure Development Programme 2007- 2013 • Vision of a further development of the e-Infrastucture in Poland • The ICT Research Infrastructure Development Programme 2007- 2013 • preparation and consultations (January - June 2007) • cooperation: ICT Infrastructure Expert Group (ZII), PIONIER Consortium, Ministry of Science and Higher Education • adopted on 28 June 2007

  6. Objectives of the Programme (I) • Provide advanced network infrastructure to ensure equal opportunities of the network access for all research entities in Poland • Support the development of services and infrastructure in High Performance Computing Centers • Set up a pool of universal tools and services of the middleware/grid level, which will allow to achieve the integration of aplications and services of the upper level

  7. Objectives of the Programme(II) • Develop advanced ICT services and applications for research community in Poland (e-Science) • Support development and implementation of ICT solutions in diverse application domains: e-Education, e-Health, e-Government etc.

  8. Activities eligible for funding (I) • Investments in the development of scientific network infrastructure and ICT equipment • Development of supercomputing centers leading to creation of more advanced infrastructures, services and tools for the research community (including also support for grid projects) • Provide researchers with continuous and common access to knowledge management systems and e-Science resources (e.g. support to the Virtual Library of Science)

  9. Activities eligible for funding (II) • Provide connectivity to GÉANT network and transboundary links to the neighbouring countries • Other important activities related to the development of e-Science

  10. Sources of funding • SCIENCE BUDGET (Ministry of Science and Higher Education) • STRUCTURAL FUNDS (Operational Programme Innovative Economy 2007-2013)

  11. National funding • Calls for proposals announced every year by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education • Institutions eligible for funding: higher education establishments, research institutes

  12. EU-Structural Funds for e-Science (I) • e-Science projects supported by the Structural Funds: • Development of e-Infrastructures • Digital content, scientific repositories and databases • Advanced ICT applications and services • Budget (2007-2013): ~ € 260 M • 85% EU resources • 15% Polish co-funding (Science budget)

  13. EU-Structural Funds for e-Science (II) • 3 Calls for proposals envisaged (2008, 2009, 2010) • 1st Call closed on 29 August’08 (budget € 80 M) • projects of transregional and countrywide coverage • proposals under evaluation • first contracts expected in 2009
