Recent developments in Grid Computing, the World-Wide Web, and Global Computing are turning the Internet into a network-centric computing infrastructure whose scope, scale, and user-base grow at an impressive pace. In the SEARCHiN project (SEARCHing In a Networked world), we plan to combine methods from parallel and distributed computing, meta-data management, information retrieval, and the semantic Web in order to achieve the scientific and technological advances necessary to bring the simplicity and effectiveness of Web search right at the core of future global, network-centric computing systems.

The g-Eclipse project aims to build an integrated workbench framework to access the power of existing Grid infrastructures. The framework will be build on top of the reliable eco system of the Eclipse community to enable a sustainable development. The framework will provide tools to customize Grid user application, to manage Grid resources and to support the development cycle of new Grid applications.

Healthware project, started on 1st of May, is a standard and interoperable satellite solution to deploy Health care services over wide areas. The project was founded in an attempt to achieve platforms interoperability for large scale deployment of e-health services, to allow medical network leaders to develop e-health satellite based services, to perform pilot validation for fine tuning of the services, and to identify obstacles, delivery chain's actors, decision makers and authorities, legal and ethical aspects to deal with to achieve sustainable services.

The project will favor 3 themes (Chronic respiratory diseases, Cardiology, Oncology) in 4 preferential applicative domains (Services at home, Medical training, Second Opinion and Teleconsultation).

EMISPHER (Euro-Mediterranean Internet-Satellite Platform for Health, Education and Research) is a project co-funded by the European Commission in the frame of the programme EUMEDIS that aims at promoting cooperation between the countries of the mediterranean area.

The 17 project partners are mostly institutions from the Health sector : hospitals, medical faculties, agencies and ministries, associations, education centres etc.

Their role is to organise and participate to initiatives that aim to :

• Foster networking between all health care professionals in the Euro-Mediterranean countries
• Develop the virtual Euro-Mediterranean Medical University, establish durable medical and scientific links
• Offer high-level remote-consultation services and remote medical expertise
• Facilitate the participation of Mediterranean countries in medical and pharmacological research, as well as clinical tests
• Ensure the continuity of medical care in cases where patients have to be repatriated
• Contribute to a database comprising epidemiological information, medical education content.

eRACE stands for Retrieval, Annotation and Caching Engine. It is an Internet-based, distributed server, developed with Java, Servlets, and Concordia , the Java-based Mobile Agent technology by Mitsubishi Electric Information Technology Center. eRACE collects information from heterogeneous Internet sources and protocols (Web, email, newsgroups) according to prespecified user profiles and interests. Information collected is annotated according to user profiles, encoded with a eRACE-XML grammar, and cached in eRACE's object cache. Within eRACE, an alerting server takes care of disseminating cached information to users, according to their profiles and priorities. eRACE supports both push and pull models of information provision. It is a generalization and extension of previous work on FIGI, the Financial Information Gathering Infrastructure. FIGI was an Internet-based system that helps investors collect, filter, combine and integrate portfolio-related information provided through various Internet services like World-Wide Web sites and Web-databases.

The aim of this project is the development of a new, dynamic, digital appraisal tool for the collection and presentation of portfolio evidence of a educator’s competencies, which can be used in the various educational and appraisal systems throughout the European Union. The project intends to address the self-improvement/self-evaluation of educators (such as teachers, educational administrators, inspectors, teacher trainers and trainees) and their objective and transparent evaluation with the help of new technologies.
