The vision of the N2Sky system aims for a virtual organisation framework allowing the exchange of neural network specific knowledge and resources, as neural network paradigms, objects, data sets, solutions etc. It adheres to the sky computing paradigm by delivering ample resources by the usage of federated Clouds.  

 

The N2Sky prototype «Link» is a novel Cloud-based neural network simulation environment, which follows a pure service oriented approach. The system implements a transparent environment aiming to enable both novice and experienced users to do neural network research easily and comfortably. 

 

N2Sky is built using the RAVO «Link», a reference architecture for virtual organizations, which allows itself naturally integrating into the Cloud service stack (SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS) of service oriented architectures.
