3rd TERENA NRENs and Grids Workshop
Introduction
Following the two successful NRENs and Grids Workshops held during 2005, TERENA plans to organise two workshops per year. The Spring 2006 event took place on the afternoon of Thursday 27 April and the morning of Friday 28 April 2006. The workshop was held at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris (IAP).
