The main objective of DILIGENT has been to create an advanced testbed
for knowledge e-Infrastructure that will enable members of dynamic
virtual e-Science organisations to access shared knowledge and to
collaborate in a secure, coordinated, dynamic and cost-effective way.
This e-Infrastructure has been built by integrating grid and digital
library technology. The merging of these two forms of technology has
opened the way to a new generation of e-Science knowledge
e-Infrastructures able to provide powerful environments for research
and industrial applications.
DILIGENT is funded in part by the European Commission's Sixth
Framework Programme. DILIGENT officially began on 1 September 2004 and
came to its completion on 30 November 2007.
The experience gained, and the middleware developed, during the
DILIGENT project will be carried into the follow-up project "DILIGENT
for Science". D4Science aims to
continue the path that the GEANT, EGEE and DILIGENT projects have
initiated towards establishing networking, grid-based and data-centric
e-Infrastructures.

Diligent releases the gCube system version 1.0 |
|
The DILIGENT project is pleased to announce the DILIGENT
release Final, the official release of the DILIGENT software. Developed
under the intense coordination of 7 geographically distributed teams,
and
integrated by another 4, DILIGENT is a complex system and the release
Final
represents the achievement of a major milestone in the project. The
release Final is the foundation infrastructure on which DILIGENT will
provide on-demand
digital libraries to dynamic virtual organizations by exploiting the
high-computing capacities of the grid.
82 components were integrated,
packaged and made officially available in the release Final, together
with the
associated documentation. Furthermore, the release Final exploits a
number of
standards specification and application frameworks. The DILIGENT
release Final will be made publicly available.
