Figure 10. The collaborative product development network infrastructure - IT architecture
for: Internet/Intranet (S1), databases (S2), PLM
and videoconference system. This is the core
of the information technology (IT) architecture
definition and design.
A preliminary stage of the architecture develop-
ment process includes also, the definition and the
configuration of the INPRO research network's
web page (Figure 11). This is linked also, with
the project operational objectives and the partners'
integration in the research activities. The web
page consists of information regarding: the project
objectives and activities, partners' description
(link to their own web pages), conferences (sci-
entific events), workshops and meetings that are
organized by the partners, research results (with
public interest) and the link to the Intranet section
that was restricted to the network members only.
Beside the INPRO web page development there
have been settled an entire communication system
dedicated to the common research work in the
network, but also, to the access at some research
resources of the European Network of Excellence,
Virtual Research Laboratory for a Knowledge
Community in Production (www.vrl-kcip.org),
