DORII
Definition:
The project aims to deploy e-Infrastructure for new scientific communities, where on the one hand ICT technology is still not present at the appropriate level today, while on the other hand it is demanded to empower the communities’ daily work.
The main focus of the DORII project is on groups of scientific users with experimental equipment and instrumentation that are currently not or only partially integrated in the European e-Infrastructures. At present, following selected scientific areas are represented in the project:
·Earthquake community (with various sensor networks)
·Environmental science community
·Experimental science community (with synchrotron and free electron lasers)
The DORII project will deliver solutions based on proven methodologies and technology, while minimizing risk through regular communication with end-users and exploitation of results with recognized organizations.
Duration:
30 months: from 01/02/2008 to 31/07/2010
Objectives:
DORII’s objectives are:
1.Adopt e-Infrastructure functionality across selected areas of science and engineering
2.Deploy and operate persistent, production quality, distributed instrumentation integrated with e-Infrastructure
3.Adopt a framework environment that can be used for fast prototyping.
Funding:
The DORII project is supported by the European Commission within the 7th Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013)
Partners:
PSNC, CSIC, CNIT, ELETTRA, EUCENTRE, GUP, USTUTT, OGS, ECOHYDROS, GRNET, UC.
