Target Users. In the first year of the project, the most important target users of ECLAP were determined and clustered in three macro categories: Education & Research, Leisure & Entertainment and Cultural heritage professionals. Parallel to this process, a User Group of experts were set up who test and validate the outcomes of the ECLAP project. These user groups consist of various target users of ECLAP. A mapping was made of the experts involved in the User Groups to the existing definitions of the target users to establish whether these needed to be updated, refined and supplemented. Furthermore, it was decided to focus mainly on the macro category Education & Research for this deliverable, since this is group that is most likely to be heavy users of the portal and its content. Also, educators, researchers and students have very specific needs (which is addressed in detail in DE6.2.1), which serve as an important basis for formulating specific requirements.
Target Users. Leisure and tourism The Internet “plays a key role as a facilitator of cultural life, with 42% of all leisure-time users saying that they use the Internet to obtain information on cultural events and products. The Internet is thus very important in helping people to plan and prepare their cultural consumption” (European Cultural Values, 2007, p. 25). Furthermore, they are interested in sharing online content with others. In Europe, 41.7 million people regularly use social networking websites, and this number will increase to 107.4 million in 2012 (European Commission, 2010). Sharing content on websites and social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, and via e-mail is very common (Ostrow, 2010; Xxxxxxxxx 2010). For those performing arts lovers who spend their leisure time looking for performing arts content online, ECLAP can provide a broad range of materials. This group of performing arts lovers will be quite heterogeneous, and potentially represents a large part of the general public. Moreover, the performing arts can be important for the tourism sector, which is constantly promoting (cultural) activities. To this end, the tourism professional, whose primary objective is to provide tourists with attractive leisure activities, can use contents available on ECLAP in order to cater to the needs of those tourists that are interested in performing arts.
Target Users. Cultural heritage professionals These target users are involved in the management and / or production of cultural heritage, such as performing arts practitioners, cultural content managers and media professionals. These actors are taken into account as sub-categories of this target group. In fact most people consume culture via television or radio. “At the top, almost 8 in 10 (78%) say that they have, at some point over the 12 months before their interview, watched a cultural programme on television, or listened to such a broadcast over the radio.” (European Cultural Values, 2007, p.13) The demand of cultural products used on media such as TV or Radio suggests that the media professional is a key target user, and that it is important to provide tools and contents to media professional looking for re-usable content for media productions. It is clear that the media professional are actors that work within broadcasting, film production and multimedia industry. The cultural content managers can work in institutions such as publishing houses, museums, archives and libraries in which staff such as archivists, web developers, and digital preservation experts manage their content. The cultural content managers are in general in charge of managing the content and work on activities such as digital preservation policies, business activities, cataloguing, digitalization activities. To perform all these activities, cultural content managers require specific skills, tools and functionalities. Furthermore, in this macro category, the Performing art practitioner is a sub-category which represents the following persons: acrobats, actors, assistant directors, composers, conductor, costume designers, dancers, dramaturges, directors, light designers, make-up artists, mimes, musicians, playwrights, producers, set builders, singers, sound designer, technician, video editors, etc.
Target Users. 12.2.1. The system is envisaged to support at least 500 users with 400 users accessing the system simultaneously/concurrently at any given time. The system will have to be designed for accommodating data authored by 400 users in the PLM and 100 users for authoring Design data concurrently. Therefore 400 PLM users and 100 Design Software users are an indicator for sizing of the system. This expansion is envisaged in future; therefore, the hardware should be scalable in nature.
