Personal web site, a user space shared via web fully manageable from the users.

Virtual Linux Station: A service based on the VNC client/server protocol, used to share a remote graphical desktop. The peculiarity of the VLS service is the integration of a central linux graphical desktop, capable to run a number of scientific programs, with the entire IT infrastructure (user space on the file server, biological databases, computing resources).
