The Scilab Consortium joins Digiteo

Established in 2003 at the initiative of INRIA, the Scilab Consortium has joined the Digiteo research network on July 1^st, 2008.

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 keeps a privileged link with INRIA as the Institute remains one of its members, continue to support actively its development and is also a founder member of Digiteo.

Digiteo is the first world-class research park in Ile-de-France dedicated to information and communication science and technology (ICST). Bringing together the expertise of 1,200 researchers from six institutes on the Saclay plateau, Digiteo offers new collaborative possibilities for ambitious research projects.
