[sem-grd] call for tenders: Semantic Grid technologies and standardisation

[David De Roure]

Hello again

For those in Europe (but perhaps also of general interest that this 
is happening), the European Commission's Information Society and Media 
DG has published a call for tenders for a study on 'the Semantic Grid:
technologies and standardisation'.

I quote:

 "The study will provide a critical analysis of current European 
 involvement in, and contributions to, standardisation initiatives 
 relevant to the Semantic Grid, while identifying future needs of 
 the Semantic Grid in terms of standardisation.  Additionally, the 
 study will identify the future needs of industry and business in 
 terms of technologies and standardisation for semantic developments 
 of the 'Next Generation Grid'.  From the analyses undertaken,
 recommendations (including a 'road map') will be formulated and 
 proposed to the European Semantic Grid constituency that will 
 enable it to maximise its impact in international standardisation
 activities."
