Abstract

The PARADISE project is a pilot international directory service which started under the umbrella of the EUREKA COSINE project. The activity has been led by UCL who have been at the forefront of X.500 activity since 1988. Through its involvement in ESPRIT projects THORN and INCA, University College London (UCL) pioneered work on distributed directories, and in 1988 developed QUIPU, a complete implementation of the X.500 standard. QUIPU was subsequently deployed extensively throughout Europe, North America and Australia to pilot the Directory in operation.
