CALL 1 in 2007 Virtual Research Communities VRC: research collaborations formed across geographical, disciplinary and organisational boundaries • addressing the specific needs of new scientific communities regardless of the location of their research facilities. • Advanced applications and capabilities to more researchers, capturing commonalities, fostering interoperability, promoting open standards and federating approaches across disciplines. • Some user communities may require the adaptation of methods and scientific practices to exploit the extended capabilities of the e-Infrastructure. 5

CALL 7 in 2010 Virtual Research Communities Objectives: • all science and engineering disciplines access and share facilities, instruments, software and data • more effective scientific collaboration and innovation • incorporate users from academia and industry from one or more scientific or engineering communities, computational scientists and е-infrastructure providers Address: • multi-disciplinary collaboration and specific needs • end-to-end е-infrastructure services and tools • user-configured virtual research facilities/test-beds by coalition of existing resources • creation of sustainable virtual research communities • integrating regional e-Infrastructures 6

CALL 9 in 2011 e-Science Environments Core objectives: • supporting the development and deployment of e-Science environments based on a seamless and integrated e. Infrastructure (networking, computing and data infrastructures and services) • fostering of user oriented service Address: • "citizen scientists" • international dimension • standardisation needs • open standards and APIs • openness of the e-Science environments • appropriate licensing schemes for open source software 7

Achievements • Citizenz in GLORIA 18

How far are we in developing user-centric e. Science environments that provide integrated services? What are the main obstacles? • Standardisation of gateways between the technical systems and networks underpinning integrated e-Science services? • Does standardising the scientific process stifle innovation? • Common models of scientific workflows? • Need for new tools for working with content in collaboration mode? • How and by whom will the rules/models be established? • Should scientists use available wikis and social networking or we need to tailor tools to their specific needs? • Will scientists be able to openly share their ideas, data and resources? • How will the notions of research excellence evolve in the e. Science environment? 19
