GridFactory is a research project of the high energy physics group and the eScience group of the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, with aims described on the vision page.
Some of the code originates in other projects, including distributed computing efforts of the ATLAS experiment at CERN, the LCG project and the KnowARC project. Moreover, GridFactory relies heavily on various, more general, open-source libraries, developed by many other people. For full acknowledgements, see the readme file distributed with the software.
