Abstract

VOSpace is the IVOA work for the definition of an interface to a virtual file system available for VO applications and services. It defines only the interface and not the storage infrastructure. This one is under the responsibility of the “space provider”. In this note we explain quickly our work about VOSpace in the frame of the VOTECH project.
