-
Provide scientists with access to state of the art e-Infrastructure – computing, storage and connectivity resources – available in the region; and promote the inclusion of additional resources.
-
Integrate the underlying e-Infrastructure layers with generic / standardized as well as domain-specific services for the region. The latter are leveraging on existing tools with additional features being co-developed and co-operated by the Scientific Communities and the e-Infrastructure providers, thus proving integrated Virtual Research Environments.
-
Promote capacity building in the region and foster interdisciplinary approaches.
-
Provide functions to facilitate data management for the selected Scientific Communities, engage the full data management lifecycle, link data across the region, and provide data interoperability across disciplines.
-
Provide adequate user support and training programs for the user communities in the SEEM region.
-
Bring high level expertise in e-Infrastructure utilization to enable research activities of international standing in the selected fields of Climatology, Life Sciences and Cultural Heritage.
VRE for regional Interdisciplinary communities in Southeast Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean
VI-SEEM is a three-year project that aims at creating a unique Virtual Research Environment (VRE) in Southeast Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean (SEEM), in order to facilitate regional interdisciplinary collaboration, with special focus on the scientific communities of Life Sciences, Climatology and Digital Cultural Heritage.
VI-SEEM builds on the success of its predecessor e-Infrastructure projects that have been crucial for enabling high-quality research & ICT developments by providing networking and computational resources, application support and training, in both South East Europe and Eastern Mediterranean, and have supported the European vision of inclusive and smart growth, based on knowledge and innovation, enriching the European Research Area.
The project unifies existing e-Infrastructures into an integrated platform to better utilize synergies, for an improved service provision within a unified Virtual Research Environment to be provided to scientific communities of high impact in the combined South East Europe and Eastern Mediterranean region.
VI-SEEM will significantly leverage and strengthen the research capacities of user communities, thus improving research productivity and competitiveness on the pan-European level. Joining, sharing and exploiting the resources across the SEEM region in a common platform will ensure continuity and expansion of the available resources and services that will further propel excellence across the region.
