New core business Modern universities are developing towards loose conglomerates of (inter)discipline expertise Collaboration is therefore a core business Scientific collaboration involves groups of people in multiple institutions, disciplines and countries Collaboration is about using shared services and resources Virtual Collaboration* = People + Groups + Resources + Services + Policies + Funding +... *a.k.a. Virtual Organization 4
Distributed landscape Modern science combines resources from multiple sources across multiple (administrative) domains The core resources are within one virtual collaboration domain, but within multiple institutions, and the generic collaboration services can be found in 'the cloud' 5
