5: Human Capital
Support human capital development around VOs. Other Information:
To build a pipeline of qualified experts who understand and can support VOs requires education initiatives such as workshops,
summer institutes,and even computational science concentrations at colleges and universities. Such efforts would build more
of an institution and a professional community around VOs. (Consider, for example, the OGF [http://www.gridforum.org/], which
sponsors education events, distributes publications and presentations online, and supports shared-interest communities as
part of their mission of “providing an open forum for grid innovation and developing open standards for grid software interoperability.”)
