As an assignment of the Office of National Research and Technology, the
Office of Research-Expansion Competiton and Research-utilization (KPI)
published the Pázmány Péter Programme tender at its website on
2005.05.23. The programme aims to fund the making and operating of
several Regional University Knowledge Centers (RET): establishing such
speciality and regional centers, which conduct outstanding
scientific-researches, innovative technological activities, collaborate
intensely with the economical sphere, have inciting effect on the
region’s technological and economical enhancement, and through this
they extend the region’s and the country’s competitiveness.
With the leadership of the Eötvös Loránd University of Science (ELTE) a
5 member consortium had assembled in June, 2005, to reach the goals of
the tender, namely the creation of a university scientific and
technological innovation center. With the strengthen and the
international-sized expansion of the teamwork, many tasks –sometimes
accessible from different places, organized in complicated structures-
need evaluation, so that we can have the important information. The
present project had been made to work of answers to these technological
questions. To achieve the goals successfully, a strategy is needed for
automatic data collecting, ordinating in optimal database, processing
(which needs huge computing capacity), and essence grabbing
visualization. By means of the Grid technology based Virtual
Observatorium, a technology is coming off, which can be very useful in
performing data processing tasks. Several enterprises can have
competition advantage after putting two and two together.

Econet.hu Plc. have won another proposal
The
consortium led by econet.hu Plc. had got significant support in the frames of
the 2005. Jedlik Ányos Programme. In the centre of the supported project stands
econet.hu Rt’s Global Desktop Grid (GDG) technology, which can be used to efficiently
solve tasks what need huge computing capacity. The expendable support exceeds
the 100 million forints. This sum of money can be used to employ the technology
(which already have big professional responses) outside the closed milieu of
laboratories or enterprises.
