gCube v1.0: A Software System for Hybrid Data Infrastructures
Leonardo Candela · Figshare · 2013
gCube is a software system enabling the realization and operation of hybrid data infrastructures capable of supporting the notion of Virtual Digital Libraries (VDLs) / Virtual Research Environments (VREs), i.e., collaborative, web-based working environments through which community of practices members are provided with the entire spectrum of resources (data, services, and computing facilities) needed to accomplish their research tasks in an effective and efficient manner. gCube is currently used to govern the infrastructure set up by the European integrated project D4Science (Distributed colLaboratories Infrastructure on Grid Enabled Technology 4 Science).
