Summary

Steven Newhouse (EGI.eu) and John Towns (XSEDE) will lead a workshop that will seek to identify and record a range of "common use cases". This will be a double session of 2 x 90 min. Further details to follow.

Impact

The session will result in a range of agreed "common use cases" that describe areas and uses of the grid that are common for both organisations. Such use cases will serve to demonstrate the value of the infrastructures and reinforce the arguments in support for researchers to use the infrastructure and for funders to support the coordinating organisations (ie EGI and Xsede).
