Antarctic Theme
This
site is intended primarily for intra-project coordination
The application driver for the Antarctic theme involves the design,
construction, deployment and 'GRID-ification' of a remote sensing
device
on a lake in the Antarctic, and the support of the scientists involved
in using this device and its data.

We are currently working with EQUATOR-MIAS mobile medical devices
eScience project (...) on a possible common infrastructure for
interfacing these devices to the GRID. See presentations from
2003-04-30, above.
