WHAT IS macGRID?
macGRID is a robust, archivable, simulation research platform and a corresponding network of academic, industry and community partners who wish to engage in multidisciplinary research and creation, and resource and knowledge sharing, using avatar virtual worlds and mixed reality systems (currently with OpenSim). Based at McMaster University, this team of international researchers is working together to advance simulation research.

macGRID is uniting researchers from around the world
macGRID is a research network and platform that allows concurrent collaborative research and interaction in a virtual space. Uses range from demonstrations of proposed physical developments, archives of since lost historical buildings and artifacts, or studies on avatar interaction in virtual space.

macGRID is an online collaborative space
macGRID also hosts an online collaboration space for simulation researchers. Here, researchers from around the world can share insights, and find partners that align well with their own research interests or goals.
The community is made up of not only simulation researchers, but of graphic designers, computer engineers, programmers, communications specialists, and psychologists.
