Abstract

This work describes Dias.net, a virtual platform offering IT services to small organisations, both public and private (SME's, small local councils...) and in disperse geographical locations. It was proposed as a solution for those organisations with neither the financial resources nor the technological knowledge necessary for them to be able to exploit information technologies using the technological environments that are standard in large organisations. The work discusses the motivation and describes the conceptual model and the architecture of the platform. At present, the platform is in the trial and evaluation stage in a group of organisations. Dias.grid is the deliverable of the project, which is carried out under the 5th Framework Programme of European Research.
