AstroCloud, the major scientific project of China-VO was concluded in December, 2015. During the last three years, supported by the AstroCloud project funding, China-VO team established a comprehensive e-Science system for professional and amateur astronomical users. More than 10 telescopes (proposal management), tens of datasets (data access), 300 virtual machines from 5 distributed Cloud Computing nodes, and more than 15000 users are supported by the system. 5 supernova and one nova have been discovered by public users.

The ASTERICS VO Work Package (_Data Access, Discovery and Interoperability_ or DADI) programme of work during the first six months of 2016 includes the organisation of two events:
   * the second Technology Forum, which will be held in Edinburgh 7-8 March https://www.asterics2020.eu/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=open:wp4:wp4techforum2. Euro-VO Technology Forums discuss the partner's technological activities and collaborations.
   * a "Data Provider Forum and Training Event" which will be held in Heidelberg, 15-16 June 2016. This event is open to all European data providers.

IVOA meetings are milestones for the project, so active participation in the Cape Town meeting is expected. The Interop meeting Focus Sessions, and the IVOA priorities, are well aligned with DADI ones. Multi-dimensional data, time domain, <nop>HiPS, provenance, authorisation and authentication, the relationship with the RDA, are among DADI topics of interest.
