5. 5 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.

6. 6 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

7. 7 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

18. 18 Achievements Citizenz in GLORIA

19. 19 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?
