Deepak: Hadoop is an open source implementation of MapReduce. You should be able to use Hadoop with SGE AFAIK. My goal is to use EC2
Michael: Seeing the implementations of it, EC2 does look very, very cool. I'd like to try it out too, but don't think I'll get any money to that just yet
Deepak: I agree. I think we need to add on-demand models into our funding systems
Michael: Maybe in a decade, or sooner, most university departments will be using on demand computing and storage? Would be interesting to see that proposed in a grant application

Schonfeld: Will the semantic web enable new business models?
Spivack: The semantic web does not introduce new business models but it will make current models better. The same opportunities will exist but they will be more optimized and more open and provide better value for users. On top of that it will open up the playfield for new players in each of the categories such as search and advertising.
Schonfeld: Iis there anything inherentely in the semantic web to open up standards?
Spivack: The semantic web makes your data more portable and more able to leave a service and will focus more on value creation. Open standards are the foundation of a less evil web.
