Description

This session address sustainability in the context of the so-called Heavy User Communities (HUCs) of EGI-InSPIRE that are supported by SA3. For each of the communities involved, a senior user will briefly present their vision of the issues, after which we will hold a panel discussion. The main themes to be addressed include:

• Sustainability of the discipline
• Sustainability of the associated grid / DCI community
• Sustainability of support for the specific tools and services currently provided / assisted by SA3

The main HUCs (in terms of dedicated tasks) are:

• High Energy Physics (HEP)
• Life Sciences (LS)
• Earth Sciences (ES)
• Astronomy and Astrophysics (A&A)
• Others - supported by the Shared Tools and Services task

As time is tight, ONE slide per each question is all that can be accommodated (to leave plenty of time for discussion).
