The symposium will be held in Sardinia, Italy, June 20-24, 2005. A global perspective will overlay the symposium's discussions on critical software infrastructure addressing: managing distributed data; evolving digital library technology; data preservation environments; and real world applications. The PI is requesting funds to cover travel and per diem costs for US participants., as well as meeting room and network access costs on-site. Student participation will be sought, lodging, and sustenance for the workshop.
