Established in 2003 at the initiative of
INRIA,
the Scilab Consortium will integrate the Digiteo research network as from July 1
st.
This evolution, which results from a reflection undertaken by the Consortium
for more than a year, provides an appropriate response to the sustained growth
of the operation.
The new organization anticipates an intensification of the resources of the
Consortium with for major objectives to strive for excellence in the areas
considered strategic by its members, to integrate recent research outcomes,
to expand the community of contributors, to develop a powerful open source
ecosystem, and to consolidate the operation at the European and international
level.

However, the Scilab Consortium will keep a privileged link with INRIA as
the Institute remains one of its members, will continue to support actively
its development and is also a founder member of
Digiteo.
A series of announcements scheduled by the summer and immediately after
summer break, will punctuate the advent of the new Scilab Consortium.

Digiteo is the first world-class research park in Ile-de-France dedicated

Saclay plateau, Digiteo offers new collaborative possibilities for ambitious
research projects.
