The Denigma project currently focuses on building a living map of Aging Research (people, Projects, Collaborations, Content: how to display it for a better use than PubMed, and dedicated to Aging). ¶

The Continuous Longevity Meeting created a videochat community to facilitate contact of everyone in the International Longevity Alliance (Longevity 24/7). ¶

There is a specific channel for computer Programmers to discuss information technology issues associated with the ILA projects (Developers). ¶

We have defined a Skype Group for this Development called "Video Chat Application". If you want to contribute and the development and testing of videochats toolkits (for example) please indicate so. If it is the case we will add you to the Skype group. ¶

Another project is dedicated the evolution of the Skype place. Skype is great but it harbors several limitations. 2nd life is known to be great place for conferences and we might be given some room in a few months. Many other software exists all with their on limitations. The goal is to create a collaborative community, where we see faces of each other, it is easy to use Skype (and not a Forum), it is very affordable and ideally free, it is very scalable (videochat with many persons) and connected to Aging Research Projects. ¶

The idea is to have a Skype-like environment but with a better structure for the Goals as it would be structured along distributed Research Projects on Aging. ¶

There are channels to other specific Projects under the name of the ILA. Collaborative Projects associated to the ILA including those relate to information technology are listed here [http://www.denigma.de/experts/collaborations/?labs=555]. ¶

The Continuous Longevity Meeting currently features several active chats: ¶

Longevity 24/7 ¶
Developers ¶
Video Chat Application
Integrating Online Resources ¶
Longevity->Crowdfunding ¶
Semantic Web for Longevity Research [skype:?chat&blob=t1i32uOIucpNXkStvXP3_GjIeUruzdlC9iBGJMoDrL9nDxnhpqOOclrNmkfKv5P22aPU79ldpUSapg1gjdq88sd4465J2qM0oihzb4AO9aAzRvpLotpFjiVSTMHoGqUjW9AU1TBhhClEHet3HRv4ImuVezZdoWWo44ZQ24pPGt-4Gw] ¶





Integration of Resources

The Denigma project currently focuses on building a living map of Aging Research (people, Projects, Collaborations, Content: how to display it for a better use than PubMed, and dedicated to Aging). ¶

The integration of different resources on Aging appears to be pretty doable with a combination of AWS and/or vhost trickery. ¶

The basic idea would be to host the Longevity Alliance associated site like Denigma as individual branches of the same physical website. They could then share a database (either co-located or virtual), Apache instance, etc. The in needs the DNA records need to point people browsing the site to the adequate branch: IP:8080/DENIGMA_BRANCH or IP:8080/LONGEVITY_ALLIANCE_BRANCH. Then it is possible to use VHOSTS (virtual hosts) to ensure that people visiting those pages see the appropriate domain in their browsers. It would also help to resolve SSL certification confusion it SSL support will be needed.


Comment: Added a first paragraph about Denigma.
