Nowadays, modern research depends on large shared facilities including huge integrated data centers, e-infrastructures knowledge resources, grids environment, and interoperable heterogeneous networks.  This session aims at drawing the state of the art and a vision of future requirements for developing e-infrastructures adapted to research needs.  Presentations of new acquisition tools or devices, such as virtual reality, virtual laboratories, methodological and conceptual papers together with contributions oriented on case studies are welcome.  Technologically advanced approaches based on parallel computing using computer grids and/or parallel graphic processor units are also considered. 

 

This session would like to offer the practitioners to debate and discuss the future needs in these fields.  Contributions are covering the role of research information management in the e-infrastructure, scholarly publication repositories, research dataset and software repositories and the inter-relationship of CRIS to research facilities and their use.
