As biological and biomedical research increasingly reference the environmental context of the biological entities under study, the need for formalisation and standardisation of environment descriptors is growing. The Environment Ontology (ENVO; www.environmentontology.o...

The increasing volume of data being produced, curated, and made available by research infrastructures in the environmental science domain require services that are able to optimize the delivery and staging of data for researchers and other users of scientific data. Spec...

Abstract. The data generated by environmental research infrastructures (ENV RIs) are key to analysing the quality of general living standards and the conditions of development of environmentally sensitive economic activities: monitoring the atmosphere and ocean is incre...

Cloud computing offers easy and economical access to computational capacity at a scale that had previously been available to only the largest research institutions. To take advantage, large biological datasets are increasingly analyzed on various cloud computing platfor...

Virtual Research Environments are innovative, web-based, community-oriented, comprehensive, flexible, and secure working environments conceived to serve the needs of modern science. We overview the existing initiatives developing these environments by highlighting the m...

This document contains example instantiations of the e-Infrastructure Catalogue of Services. This supports a published framework for creating a Catalogue of Services (CoS), primarily intended for e-Infrastructure services, which describes services at a high level and ma...

In this paper, we propose a new multi-criteria job scheduler for scheduling a continuous stream of batch jobs on large-scale computing farms. Our solution, called Convergent Scheduler, exploits a set of heuristics that drives the scheduler in taking decisions. Each heur...
