This is the second volume in the series of proceedings from the International Workshop on Life Science Grid. It represents the few, if not the only, dedicated proceedings volumes that gathers together the presentations of leaders in the emerging sub-discipline of grid computing for the life sciences. The volume covers the latest developments, trends and trajectories in life science grid computing from top names in bioinformatics and computational biology: A Konagaya; J C Wooley of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and DoE thought leader in supercomputing and life science computing, and one of the key people in the NSF CIBIO initiative; P Arzberger of PRAGMA fame; and R Sinnott of UK e-Science.
