Cross-disciplinary data sharing and reuse via gCube

Data sharing has been an emerging topic since the 1980's. Science evolution - e.g. data-intensive, open science, science 2.0 - is revamping this discussion and calling for data infrastructures capable of properly managing data sharing and promoting extensive reuse. 'gCube', a software system that promotes the development of data infrastructures, boasts the distinguishing feature of providing its users with Virtual Research Environments where data sharing and reuse actually happens.
