The second PRAGMA Institute called the "Advanced Technologies Institute with Trust and Diversity" is sponsored by the National Center for High-Performance Computing at the National Applied Research Laboratories in Taiwan. This will be the second instantiation of a PRAGMA Institute, to follow the first one in September, 2007 hosted by NCSA, and involves three days of discussions and tutorials. The applications discussions include resources and data, life sciences, geosciences, and telesciences. The institute includes in-depth tutorials on PRAGMA community and member-institutions-developed software and applications technologies.

We are glad to announce that NCHC will host the Advanced Technologies Institute with Trust and Diversity as the 'second PRAGMA Institute'.
