D1.3 OpenScout Web Portal

Abstract

The OpenScout work package 1 (WP1) on Content Federation and Content Maintenance Infrastructure implements the basis for providing the OpenScout services. The activities and results of WP1 are the basis for the OpenScout project services provisioning. An integrated application profile is under development to include all different application profiles of the content repositories. Access to management related content through a federated infrastructure, on which value added services will be later integrated, is being analyzed and developed throughout this work package. Besides all the above mentioned development within this WP, a presentation layer for the end users is also being designed and applied. This presentation layer is the web portal which will provide access to OpenScout’s project services to all interested users. Federated content, professional and open, and tools providing access to and allowing adaptation of this content will be presented through this web portal. In the following sections, a description of the total architecture and the integrated components is provided and accordingly an analysis of the intended technologies to be applied for the portal deployment are presented.
