{{Short description|Distributed computing organization}}
The '''Open Science Grid Consortium''' is an organization that administers a worldwide [[grid computing|grid]] of technological resources called the '''Open Science Grid''', which facilitates [[distributed computing]] for scientific research. Founded in 2004, the [[consortium]] is composed of service and resource providers, researchers from universities and national laboratories, as well as computing centers across the United States. Members independently own and manage the resources which make up the distributed facility, and consortium agreements provide the framework for technological and organizational integration.
