CONVERGENCE - a new European R&D project (FP7-N°257123) coordinated by the CNIT (Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario per le Telecomunicazioni) in Roma, Italy. This project will enable ESCoM-FMSH to develop, test and validate a new ARA service for the creation and management of personal audiovisual archives – service which will be made available during the end of 2011 to researchers, teachers and (institutional and individual) actors working in the digital preservation culture.
