Realising the Community Vision of Concurrent Enterprising ICE 2003 Moderator Roberto Santoro, ESoCE NET Roberto Santoro, ESoCE NETwww.esoce.net

16th June 2003Introduction Starting from the SkyDome initiative at ICE 2002, the CE community has been building the 2010 VISION, by contributing to the shaping of the future scenarios for Concurrent Enterprising. Roadmapping activities were dedicated to establish the CE state-of-the-art, to identify the big research challenges, and the possible paths through the envisaged future. Now it is time to assess, within the Community, the critical mass to realise the CE VISION.
