The Austrian Grid Initiative is the national initiative in Austria to set up and support grid computing in general, and to provide coordination and collaboration between research areas actively involved and interested in grid computing. The Austrian Grid Consortium combines Austria's leading researchers in advanced computing technologies with well-recognized partners in grid-dependant application areas.

This volume represents a summary of contributions at the 1st Austrian Grid symposium, which has been held in Hagenberg, Austria on December 1-2, 2005.

The event, organized by the Austrian Grid partners together with a Program Commitee of selected and well-known international grid computing experts marks an important milestone in this collaboration and demonstrates the first cooperation results. The symposium has thus been a forum for the institutions deploying the Austrian Grid infrastructure, for the Austrian developers of grid middleware extensions, and for the users of the Austrian Grid infrastructure to meet each other, share ideas and experience, and discuss future directions of the national grid efforts. In addition to Austrian grid experts, many colleagues from partner institutions in other countries presented their work and contributed to the ongoing discussion.
