EUROPEAN VIRTUAL INSTITUTE FOR THERMAL METROLOGY

John Redgrove

Abstract

A European Virtual Institute for Thermal Metrology (EVITherM) is being developed by a consortium of 34 European institutes, led by NPL and supported by the EC, to ensure that thermal knowledge and services are made available to industry, for the benefit of industrial processes and the environment, offering low-cost easy access, particularly to SMEs. EVITherM will be a co-ordinated Internet-based infrastructure designed to link together the geographically scattered centres of excellence and other groups and organisations concerned with thermal measurements and technology to provide a focal point for information exchange and knowledge transfer between all these organisations and industry. It will form a website for users, having three levels of access. The first level is free and contains directories of information; the second and third levels are for members only and will allow access to qualified information and member interactions. The first public release of the website is due by early 2004.
