| Funded by the EUREKA-Program, three Universities in Europe are developing "Cult-Base", a database of the cultural heritage in Europe, in order to "to develop new technology for accessing relevant and personalized information from the multimedia content of public databases." Initially 1.4 Million Euro (~$1.3 Million) are used to build a meta-library, which is drawing its content from the various multi-media information sources across Europe's institutions and museums. Working with German and Italian colleagues, the team is lead by Dr Eveline Riedling at the Technical University of Vienna and currently developing a prototype. If successful, the cult-base will be commercially sold to other institutions and cultural centers.
