This report introduces a roadmap named as the European Roadmap for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI). It suggests scientific demand on the pan-European infrastructure assigned at the 2004 EU Competitiveness Council for the next 1-2 decades. It reveals that there has been a mutual consent on the related infrastructure, not just integrated operation of national resources and making a priority.
