Abstract

The integration of collaborative and networking activities with problem solving environments and web technologies on the grid allows the development of advanced environments for training and education. This paper describes some activities performed within ELCHEM (a Metalaboratory of the D23 (METACHEM: Metalaboratories for complex computational applications in chemistry) COST in Chemistry action) using the outcome of MUTALC (the multimedia working group of ECTN (European chemistry thematic network)) to develop grid technologies for research, projects and services for Chemistry and Molecular Science activities.
