Current NA4 Activities
NA4.2 Adapt Grid applications NA4.3 Support the deployed applications

Review Recommendations
In the second year of the project, the partners will need to place more emphasis on dissemination of the scientific outputs from the project.
Deliverable NA4.4 due in M24, User Community Engagement and Applications Assessment, should signpost:
the new science / new capabilities developed by the project; how the scientific state of the art has been advanced by the
project; how the grid has helped advance the science base.
In addition, it will be important to point to scientific papers produced by the project that have appeared in refereed conferences/journals outside the grid community in the scientific field of interest.

Application Dissemination Application Web Pages:
To achieve AP#135, application developers are expected to prepare web pages with substantial content on their applications (also, continuing to keep the targeted content at the wiki might be an option if it is appropriate for that full content).
Wiki should hold the rich content for application descriptions or links to the actual web pages.
Still very limited content on the Web! One application with a web page and a link from wiki to it;
Some (ROMS, e.g.) with a web page but w/o link from wiki. Need immediate action by the developers. We may also consider having direct links from project web
to wiki page of VOs or to application web pages.
PSC05, Dubrovnik, 9-11 September 2009 5
Application Dissemination
iSGTW Submissions: Coordinated by NA3. Developers should follow the submission schedule.
Focus: Should not limited to the Grid conferences etc. More emphasis should be given to the publications in our
scientific domains: Meteorology, Seismology, Environmental Protection.
Each VO can form (and keep updated) a list of conferences, workshops, journals etc. in the scientific domain for the members to submit their results – VO Leaders + Scientific Representatives can lead this process.
PSC05, Dubrovnik, 9-11 September 2009 6
Application Dissemination
Deployment in production: Lets have some version deployed in production as
early as possible – November 2009, latest. Should be made available to the scientific community
to attract potential users. Generated results should be disseminated as well.
SEE-GRID-SEE User Forum: Every application is expected to submit an abstract.
PSC05, Dubrovnik, 9-11 September 2009 7
Applications' Progress
Details are to be covered within the VO presentations. Critical: CHERS is still behind the schedule.
RO team declared that they are ready to help technically.
However, the problem is now more administrative. Update in the development timeline needed, and
must be strictly obeyed.

New Applications: ROMS and CCIAQ
NA4 Application Questionnaire was filled by both of them. Presentation uploaded to "Downloads > NA4 > Applications_August08"
by ROMS only – Expected from CCIAQ as well. ROMS has no regional collaboration yet! With AL, ME? Other possible operations:
Filling in JRA1 and SA1 surveys. Updating the timeline to create the iSGTW articles, e.g. appending
ROMS and CCIAQ to M23. Updating the lists, tables etc. of Envo VO – Wiki has already been
updated, but it might be needed to go over the VOMS groups. Suggestion for VO ASG teams to be formed:
CCIAQ → S.Ivanovska, E.Atanassov + A.Balasko ROMS → D.Davidovic + N.Frasheri

New Extension: EnviMon to GreenView
Proposed by MD team. Goals were clarified, and timeline provided:

Application Accounting
Here is the current status : The Seismo VOMS is ready. Three application groups on the Meteo VOMS:
/GR/App/REFS, /RS/App/REFS, /HR/App/WRF-ARW
Normally, one group per application is assumed – We should check if it creates any problem for accounting or not?
/GR/App/REFS has two members, but the others have none. The Envo VOMS not responding: When checked before, there were
some –but not all– of the application groups defined on it with the registered users.
A user should declare his/her role using the "voms-proxy-init" command before submitting an application (may not be required if s/he is registered to only one application group).

VO Meetings
VO meetings (incl. EVO) expected to be held regularly – once bimonthly.
Also, their minutes need to be uploaded to the project web in the SEE-GRID-SCI format.
On the web only the following minutes are available: Minutes of the EVO-1 Meteorology Minutes of the EVO-1 Seismology Minutes of the EVO-2 Meteorology
Others: Not held or Held but their minutes not uploaded?

DNA4.3 – Gridification Guideline
Draft ToC has been announced by Davor. It needs to be finalized first.
Contributions expected from Activity / VO Leaders. By circulating through the e-mails very quickly or
by F2F communication during PSC05. Next, we can create the wiki sections accordingly and
assign the responsibilities. There we can also make use of the "Contribution Policy",
"Instructions for Contributions" and the other content left from SEE-GRID2.

Collaboration with GENESI-DR
Latest status: They are checking the data access techniques for
different data types, formats etc. The main problem is the certification and the access
rights. For each data source two certificates are needed: One certification is given by GENESI-DR portal (ESA), and another one is given by the data owner (the particular data repository). That means for each data source one need different certification.
The GENESI-DR project is on the development as well, and all the problems, and our requirements are resolved on the way.

Action Points
Application web pages should be completed as described [Developers, October'09]
The iSGTW submissions schedule should be obeyed by the developers.
VO Leaders and Scientific Representatives guide the members for scientific publications by providing a list of scientific events + journals to be targeted [VO Leaders + Scientific Rep., October'09].
Some version of the applications should be deployed in production and made accessible to the scientific community to attract potential users [Developers, November'09].
Applications should submit abstract to the User Forum [Developers, September'09].
The development timeline of CHERS needs to be updated and followed [Neki Frasheri, October'09].
PSC05, Dubrovnik, 9-11 September 2009 16
Action Points
Regarding our new applications: The application presentation for CCIAQ should be uploaded [Dimiter
Syrakov, September'09]. Regional collaborations for ROMS [Davor Davidovic, October'09]. VO ASG teams for ROMS and CCIAQ [Cevat Sener and Alex
Stanciu, September'09]. VOs should make sure that application groups are ready on
VOMS, and users declare roles [Technical Rep., September'09]. VO meetings should be held, and minutes should be uploaded
regularly [VO Leaders]. Members of the collaborating institutes should register to VOMS. ToC for DNA4.3 should be finalized; corresponding wiki sections
should be created and assigned to the relevant teams [Davor Davidovic and Cevat Sener, September'09].
