    MANTICORE II follows the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) paradigm to enable National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) and other e-infrastructure providers to enhance their service portfolio by building and piloting the deployment of tools to provide infrastructure resources and IP networks as a service to virtual research communities. MANTICORE II is carrying out the following activities: * Robust and modular implementation of IaaS management tools. * Pilot software deployment and evaluation at HEAnet, NORDUnet and RedIRIS. * Design and implement a simple yet powerful graphical interface for the IP Network Service. * Study and simulate mechanisms to implement an infrastructure marketplace. * Study business models and use cases for commercial services based on MANTICORE II principles.Postprint (published version

    This project implements an Advance Reservation Service (ARS) that integrates the UCLP (User Controlled Lightpath Provisioning) system into the European project PHOSPHORUS IST FP6. The main goal of this service is to provide the UCLP system with the capability to make advance reservations of the network resources. In this way, UCLP will permit its users to make advance reservations and also will be a part of the PHOSPHORUS IST FP6 project. In other words, networks managed by UCLP will be able to be interconnected with other networks managed by the different systems integrated in the PHOSPHORUS IST FP6 project
