Contract Type FiledJuly 8th, 2010General information Project title 3 NEXPReS- Novel EXplorations Pushing Robust e-VLBI Services Starting date 4 01/07/2010 Duration in months 5 36 Call (part) identifier 6 FP7-INFRASTRUCTURES-2010-2 Activity code(s) most relevant to your topic 7 : Free keywords 8 Radio Astronomy, VLBI, radio telescopes, bandwidth on demand, streaming computing, high-speed storage, distributed sensor networks Abstract 9 The objective of “Novel EXplorations Pushing Robust e-VLBI Services” (NEXPReS) is to offer enhanced scientific performance for all use of the European VLBI Network (EVN) and its partners. The proposed activities will allow the introduction of an e-VLBI component to every experiment, aiming for enhanced robustness, flexibility and sensitivity. This will boost the scientific capability of this distributed facility and offer better data quality and deeper images of the radio sky to a larger number of astronomers. In the past years, e-VLBI has been successfully introduced for real-time,
