A need for Communication in security and flexibility
•
Communication
– The portal should permit document exchange and information publishing
in a groupware tool. The groupware tool should be propose security and
flexibility :
– Security
• Aesop software should offer a private space where confidential information
and/or public information could be published according to connected people
profil in a high security level.
– Flexibility
• Aesop solution should propose a flexible web collaborative tool. The software
application should be flexible and could be customized according to each technological
transfer project. Each participant has its own space which can be shared with other
SMEs, Experts, etc...

What was achieved
•
•
AESOP plateform gives to user the possibility to publish useful websites in a
single page like a portal. This integration will help the consultants in their
work with SME clients.
Groupware solution was developed taken into account IRC needs.
– Portlets like Forum, calendar and document management system were
developed and can be used in collaborative projects.
– The flexibility of the tool is real and private secure spaces can be built and
shared between different group and users. Each project can be related to
one specific space with personalised customization, language and services.
– The access to spaces is obtained by login, certificates and Smart cards.
Different level of Security have been developed to access to secure
spaces.

What need to be completed
•
Aseop tool enables to gather several web sites but does not give the possibility
to single sign on. This service could be very useful for people who are
working with lot of different websites and extranets. It would be time saving.
•
The integration of our desk top communication tools (agenda, email etc) have
not been done.
•
The integration of our work “File Maker tool” Kangourou is not achieved.

First use of Aesop
•
The multiple configuration possibilities created new ideas of platform use. The
solution of groupware can effectively be used in Extranet of projects where a
secure work in a common space is requested.
•
Aesop will be use as an Extranet in a IRC Consortium IRC called SORAA.
•
The Portal has been configured and 3 spaces were created :
– Space for IRC consortium partner. This is the earth of the Extranet. In this
common space, partners can follow the consortium project and different
projects and events. They can use Aesop portal like a virtual desk.
– Space for anonymous user : without connection, the user can access to a
public portlet containing useful websites called “Regional IRC web sites”
– Space for New registered people : a list of selected IRC web site
“European technological partnership web sites” is proposed to them.

Aesop in the Future
•
•
What could be improved in AESOP portal ?
– development of tool integration (integration of desk document
management.)
– development of a single sign on solution
– development of more services : chat, videoconference
– ...
The use of the tool could be extend. Rhone_Alpes pilot could exploit Ticket
Management Services for exemple.
