Networking activities. We create and maintain a stable management of the project, with strong internal and external communication and development of realistic plans for uptake and sustainability of MAPPER results during and after the lifetime of the project. We focus on targeted dissemination actions and a foresight study addressed to policy makers on the ICT concepts and technologies that facilitate multi-scale modelling approaches on large e-Infrastructures. Service activities: We distinguish two layers of services constituting the MAPPER environment. Users and applications communicate with services belonging to the interoperability layer, an abstract layer to grid resources managed by different middleware stacks. The interoperability services are responsible for providing concurrent access to resources controlled by different services synchronizing and orchestrating the execution of applications in the grid. Multi-scale loosely and tightly coupled simulations are controlled by a broker and underlying computing access services developed in the FP6-ICT QosCosGrid project3. The broker is integrated with underlying middleware and its scheduling and co-allocation algorithms are tuned for specific needs of multi-scale applications. Many of the services that we wish to use have been developed individually and do not necessarily interoperate. We ensure that these services do talk to each other where appropriate. We start working on application deployment as early as possible in the project. We therefore adopt a twin track approach in our service development activities. The fast track adapts, integrates and deploys a minimal set of infrastructure components to enable coupling of multi- scale applications. The deep track will do so for the higher level services required to realise the full and integrated MAPPER infrastructure, which will enable the coupling and launching of multi-scale component codes. MAPPER services evolve on the basis of a regular cycle of top- down and bottom- up analysis of existing e-infrastructure, MAPPER building blocks as well as new requirements defined by our multi-scale user communities.

Networking activities. NA1 – Management of the EXPReS I3 NA1 focuses on the management of all aspects the EXPReS I3. The EXPReS I3 will be run by a governing board (hereafter termed the Board) whose members will comprise the Directors or representatives of all the institutes involved in the I3. The overall coordinator of EXPReS is Dr. M.A. Xxxxxxx (Director JIVE). He will be the contact person for the European Commission and will be aided by the appointment of an EXPReS Programme Manager and an Administrative Assistant. The coordinator, project manager, administrative assistant and the leaders of SA1, SA2 and JRA1 will form the EXPReS Management Team (EMT). The EMT will implement decisions made by the Board. The Project Manager (together with other members of the EMT) will be responsible for the day-to-day management of EXPReS and will continuously monitor the status of all project activities, including the generation of deliverables, meetings, financial & technical reports and the completion of milestones. Members of the EMT will be located at JIVE, except Xx. X. Colomer (leader of SA2) who will be based at OAN. NA2 – EVN-NREN Forum The chairman of the NA2 EVN-NREN forum will be Xx. Xxxx Xxxxxxx (XXXXX). The EVN- NREN forum will bring together a broad range of expertise from all parts of the EXPReS consortium, both the networking and radio astronomy partners. Face-to-face meetings of this group will take place once per year and the maintenance of an EVN-NREN email forum will facilitate continuous dialogue through the rest of the year. NA2 will address the resolution of various technical problems that arise, provide input into project planning, define evolving programme objectives, and critically assess/review the results arising from SA1, SA2 & JRA1. NA3 – e-VLBI Science Forum The chairman of NA3 e-VLBI Science Forum is Dr. Xxxx Xxxxxx (Onsala Space Observatory). This activity will partially support the existing e-VLBI Science Advisory Group (eVSAG, also chaired by Xx. Xxxxxx). NA3 activities will be to ensure that potential users of the EXPReS e-VLBI facility are well informed of the instrument’s scientific capabilities and are able to generate and submit technically sound observing proposals. An online e-VLBI Science discussion group will be set up so that e-VLBI users can provide direct feedback to the eVSAG. The eVSAG is also charged with identifying the potentially new and transformational capabilities e-VLBI can deliver to the astronomical community. The group will also p...

Networking activities. In the project, networking activities play a crucial role. There are three levels: the first one is networking between the participating institutions and the integration of the infrastructure; the second one is networking of the community at large, stimulating their use of the infrastructure; the third is networking with societal stakeholders in order to improve relevance and dissemination of data and indicators. Networking the participants of the infrastructure: The first level of networking activities is between the consortium members. We have identified four key issues that need to be addressed. The first three deal with the conditions for opening and effective transnational access.

Networking activities. The MICROKELVIN Collaboration includes the following 4 Networking Activities: NA1: Managing MICROKELVIN Collaboration NA2: Coordination of transnational access NA3: Knowledge and technology transfer NA4: Strengthening European low temperature research The NAs contain several elements, which will enhance the services of the access giving in- frastructures in TA1-3 beyond the state-of-the-art. The quality of the access services depends on the effectiveness of communication systems between the users, the access giving sites and the Man- agement Office. In NA1 we will implement WEB-based tools for asynchronous communications. The access applications will be processed by a common Selection Panel. The User Meeting is a good forum for new users to test new ideas. In Task 3 of NA2 the access giving sites will arrange common training courses for the users and unify e.g. the services of their machine and electronics shops. This is all for the benefit of the users. MICROKELVIN will xxxxxx the culture of co-operation between its partners and neighbour- ing scientific and cryoengineering communities. MICROKELVIN has identified a large number of nearby science and engineering communities with mutual interests and common technology base. They include air- and space, astrophysics, cold atom and laser cooling, cosmology, high energy, metrology, quantum information processing and superconductivity research communities and indus- trial partners producing and/or manufacturing cryogenic liquids, ultra low temperature refrigerators, superconducting magnets, ultra sensitive sensors and cameras for security, and medical imaging de- vices. In NA3 MICROKELVIN will make a serious effort in knowledge and technology transfer between its partners and these communities as well as to public audience. The main tools for xxxxxx- ing collaboration and knowledge and technology transfer beyond the ultra low temperature commu- nity are the four scientific and one industrial workshop where the experts of the neighboring com- munities are invited to participate. Finally, in NA4 the MICROKELVIN Collaboration is setting up an outreach program in low temperature physics beyond European borders. The program will strengthen the ERA by supporting scientific and technical exchanges with laboratories in Third Countries.

Networking activities. As is tradition, components and activities aimed at facilitating communication, building and developing formal and informal associations, creating and improving shared standards, and setting higher professional benchmarks are built into all aspects of the RIPMP. Over the past three years, these networking activities took on a variety of forms, 27 xxxx://xxxx.xxx.xx/projects/xxxxxxx.php including: conferences, exchange programs, partner-to-partner trips, internships, professional competitions, systems of peer critique, as well as the creation of online Internet-based communities. As noted earlier, many of these networking efforts also folded into the work of the AIRP, which, as an association, promotes the interests of independent regional media as a whole.
