The gCube social networking facilities manifest in a number of applications made available through a thin Web browser are conceptually close to the common facilities promoted by social networks - e.g., posting news, commenting on posted news - yet adapted to deal with large scale collaboration and cooperation on comprehensive scientific products, data sets, theories and tools. Social Profile allow users to enter their professional data and contact information. It also allows to import the profile data directly from LinkedIn via the OAuth 2.0 protocol.

Home Library is a library that uses Apache Jackrabbit, a Java Content Repository, to store and manage content. Using Home Library users can upload files, create groups, set permissions on an folder and share it with other users. Home Library is also provided with a trash folder to prevent accidental deletion of files.

The Resource Manager is a SOA based service in charge of managing gCube Scope contexts. The Resource Manager 2.0, by coordinating five distinguished services (Deployer, Software Gateway, Resource Broker, gCube Hosting Node Manager, Web Hosting Node Manager), realizes the VRE dynamic deployment by, respectively, collecting service implementations, selecting target nodes for deployment within the infrastructure, and hosting resources implementations at selected nodes. The primary role assigned to this service is to collects and manage all the resources and service implementations related to a specific Virtual Organization.

The gCube Information System (shortly, IS) delivers functionalities for publishing, discovering, and monitoring the set of resources forming the infrastructure. Moreover it allows to federate different infrastructures. It acts as the registry of the infrastructure, i.e. all the resources are registered in the IS and every service partaking in the infrastructure must refer to it to dynamically discover the other infrastructure constituents. Moreover, the approach provided by the IS is of great support for the dynamic deployment capabilities of gCube.

speciesLink SPD plugin is a plugin of the Species Products Discovery service that interacts with speciesLink data source, by using the international standard TAPIR protocol. The data exchange format for publishing checklist data is based on Darwin Core (DwC), a standard for biodiversity data.

The gCube Data Catalogue is a software component that provides facilities for: a) (meta)data publishing; b) vres' products publishing; c) making data products publicly available; d) enriching products of metadata to maximise their potential reuse and making them searchable (via title, tags etc) are based on the CKAN technology. The gcube-ckan-datacatalog Web Application allows to (a) show all the metadata available in the CKAN instance, as well as publish a new product, retrieve the list of organizations (i.e. Virtual Research Environments) to which the user belongs and his/her already published products.

The Social Networking Library is a "bridge" between the gCube social networking applications and the NoSQL Datastore supporting the applications back-end. By abstracting over the Datastore provides with all the required logic to support publication of posts, post replies and/or likes, as well as the "smart retrieval" of these posts per user or VRE, i.e., timelines. Moreover, it supports selective notifications on the activities performed by users over these Posts.

Evento scientifico - divulgativo, organizzato dal CNR nell'ambito della manifestazione internazionale EXPO2015, volto a comunicare la ricerca in atto negli Istituti del CNR, ISPA ed ISE, nell'ambito delle nuove risorse alimentari. L'evento è focalizzato su microalghe, meduse ed insetti come fonti di nutrimento alternative o ad integrazione dei cibi tradizionali, anche in previsione delle modificazioni della popolazione mondiale e della necessità di ridurre la malnutrizione. Intervengono studiosi ed esperti internazionali: Graziella Chini Zittelli (CNR-ISE-Fi); Antonella Leone (CNR-ISPA-Lecce); Francesco Gai (CNR-ISPA-Torino); Vitor Verdelho Vieira, Lisbon, (Portugal); Paul Vantomme, FAO Rome; Stefano Piraino, University of Salento and CoNISMa(Italy); Lucas Brotz, University of British Columbia (Canada); Silvio Mangini, Archimede Ricerche SRL, (Italy); Wolfgang Gelbmann, EFSA (EU); Maria Gabriella Giuffrida, CNR-ISPA-To (Italy); Gabriella Morini, University of Gastronomic Sciences, (Italy); Elena Pagliarino, CNR-IRCrES, (Italy); Gennaro Esposito (chef) Torre del Saracino, Vico Equense, Naples, (Italy); Antonio Francesco Logrieco, Direttore CNR-ISPA; Francesco Loreto, Direttore CNR-DISBA.

gCube Home Library WebApp is a web service that uses a Java Content Repository, such as Apache Jackrabbit, to store and manage content. Home Library WebApp uses Java servlets to process HTTP requests in a RESTful way.
