Motivation
Establishment of a marketplace where researchers can discover and exchange services relevant to their research, ideally applying the one-stop-shop concept for data and services. The activity will develop the tools to facilitate the discovery and provisioning of services and data for the researchers and resource providers. This will be done in collaborations with researchers and resource providers (user-driven scenario development). The marketplace can also serve as a platform for research communities to provision or share data and services to members for the communities.
