WP3 in DoW

WP3 is a SUPPORT Activity

WP3 “Present and emerging needs of
trans-continental scientific communities”

Task 3.1 Scientific communities across the continents
(INFN)

Task 3.2 Proposed road-map of services for communities to be
deployed on the e-Infrastructures
(CIEMAT)
ISGC 2012 – Taipei, 27 Nov 2012
11
Objectives & Aim

To provide (limited) support to the existing and well
experienced VRC (LHC, Biomed…)

To provide support for communities interested to widen their
activities collaborating with other continents

To discover and attract new scientific communities or merging
similar ones operating worldwide.
ISGC 2012 – Taipei, 27 Nov 2012
12
Objectives & Aim

Performing a large spectrum investigation on the existing and
potential trans-continental communities (T3.1)


Looking for requirements, commonalities, challenges and possible
synergies to be gathered and analysed
Then, the results will be used for feeding T3.2…
