Data Infrastructure Ecosystem for Science (D4Science-II)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2011,
D4Science-II will develop technology to enable interoperation of diverse data e-Infrastructures that are running autonomously, thereby creating e-Infrastructure Ecosystems that can serve a significantly expanded set of communities dealing with multidisciplinary challenges whose solution is currently beyond reach. Furthermore, D4Science-II will bring together several scientific e-Infrastructures es ...
