• Sommario/riassunto: On behalf of the Program Committee, it is a pleasure for us to introduce the proceedings of the 1st European Across Grids Conference. This event was held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, February 13–14, 2003. The conference,organized by the University of Santiago (USC), the University of A Coruna (UDC) and the Super computing Center of Galicia (CESGA), was promoted by the European Cross Grid project and supported by the Grid Start Cluster. The idea of organizing this event was born within the Cross Grid community. Cross Grid is developing its middleware, tools and applications in collaboration with Data Grid and Grid Lab and is open to collaboration with other Grid projects. USC, UDC and CESGA enthusiastically supported the conference idea. We consider the Across Grids Conference to be an important contribution to the objectives of the Grid Start project. The aim of this 1st European Across Grids Conference was to forge annual forum in which researchers linked to European projects could present their research results in the field of Grid computing. This conference does not tend to replace the Global Grid Forum. However, we do find that research being conducted within European projects deserves a special meeting in which all researchers participating in the Grid development challenge can exchange ideas, experiences and, chiefly, results. We would like the effort of organizing this forum to find continuity in the following years in other European cities. Our first interest was to bring together as many European Grid projects as possible. We believe we have been successful in attaining ; this aim. Papers and posters from Data Grid, Cross Grid, Damien, Data TAG, Grid Way and Grid Lab were presented, as well as results of research funded by national Grid projects, including NORDUGRID and several Spanish Grid initiatives, such as Rede Grid.
