#	Name	Affiliation	Contact Person	Experienced with Grid technology?	Application	29th session?	Expectations?	Grid Certificate
1	Irina Golombek	ITA Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister	No	cosmological simulations with the GADGET code	yes	To learn how to use the Grid facility	not yet
2	Francesco Pace	ITA Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister	No	cosmological simulations with the GADGET code	If possible yes, expecially if I will already have my account on the Grid	To learn how to use the Grid facility	applied 24.10.07
3	Jean-Claude Waizmann	ITA Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister	Not at all	cosmological simulations with the GADGET code	in principle yes	to learn how to use the Grid in daily life (e.g. how to bring an application to the grid and the results back)	applied 24.10.07
4	Andreas Ernst	ARI Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister	I am currently using computing time in the DEISA Grid (Unicore, DESHL). I have not yet experience with Globus.	astrophysical N-body simulations of star clusters with nbody6++, which is a high-accuracy parallel N-body code written in Fortran 77	Yes	To learn how the AstroGrid is organized in contrast to DEISA, how to submit jobs.	Yes
5	Stefano Pasetto	ARI Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister	No	parallel treeSPH code (protocol MPI) to develop projects regarding dwarf galaxies N-body simulations	No	To run a process on a parallel machine connected to the GRID and get back the results	Yes
6	Lachlan Campbell	AIP Potsdam	Harry Enke
7	Peter Schwekendiek	ARI Heidelberg	Thomas Bruesemeister
8	Yassene Mohammed	MediGrid Goettingen	Heike Neuroth	Yes	Parallel Workflows, data bases, atomic job, SRB, OGSA-DAI	Yes	to learn how to use Globus basic/advanced commands to get to be more familiar with globus command-line	Yes
9	Stefan Funk	TextGrid Goettingen	Heike Neuroth	Yes, I participated in the GridKA 2007 in Karlsruhe and there I had my first experience with G-Eclipse and Globus TK4.	We plan to implement a replication service based on Globus TK4, including authentication control using grid certificates in Java.	Yes, I would like to install the Globus TK4 on my PowerBook G4 and I would like to experment with the Globus storage tools (maybe using JavaGAT).	Learning about TK4 certificates, user authentication and globus storage tools.	No
10	Ubbo Veentjer	TextGrid Goettingen	Heike Neuroth	No.	Nothing specific yet.	No.	Deeper knowledge about the infrastructure, the TextGrid middleware runs upon.	No.
11	Andres Quast	Dariah, Shamman Goettingen	Heike Neuroth
12	Christian Mahnke	GDZ Goettingen	Heike Neuroth
13	Dietmar Sommerfeld	MediGrid GWDG Goettingen	Heike Neuroth	Yes, I am a member of MediGRID.	GWDG belongs to the MediGRID resource providers. I am dealing with workflows, scheduling and data management.	This is not necessary for me.	I am interested in the Gridway scheduler, it's practical use and capabilities.	Yes.
14	Steffen Kunze	Student of Applied Informatics, University not given	-	No.	I just want to use this course in combination with a GRID-Seminar I visit ("GRID Technologie in der Wissenschaft".	No. No time.	I want to get an overview how to use a grid system and I want to have a look how it works in real (in contrast to the mentioned GRID-Seminar).	No.
15	Steffen Knollmann	AIP Potsdam	Harry Enke	A little bit.	Cosmological Simulations, running them (computing power) and also analysing them (memory requirements).	That would be interesting, in principle. But I rather prefer to have a one day workshop.	Getting to know how to use the grid and perform general task (how to get my data around, how to run a job, how to work with the environment, how to compile, how to take different machines into account).	Yes.
16	Bertram Bitsch	TAT Tuebingen	Harry Enke	No.	I plan to run a Computational Astrophysics Code at the grid. The Code uses 3D time dependent Hydrodynamics. It is used to calculate planet formation in protoplanetaty discs. The Code is based on the nirvana code.	Yes.	I expect to learn how the grid works, how to run applications on the grid and to gather more information about my upcomming Ph.D. Thesis which includes running my Code at the grid, and administrating parts of the grid at Tuebingen.	No.
17	Christian Wagner	AIP Potsdam	Harry Enke	No	libraries: fftw, gsl	Perhaps	Practical introduction to AstroGrid-D	Requested a certificate but have not received it yet.
18	Stefan Ruegamer	ITA Wuerzburg	Juergen Steinacker	No.	Monte-Carlo simulations of air showers.	Only if unavoidable (time restrictions)	To receive information about Grids and to learn how to use it.	No
