In coordination with GÉANT Association and AARC, develop a model to enable GÉANT to combine NREN and federation support into a virtual “competence centre” to deliver expertise and support for concrete e-Science service deliveries on an ongoing basis and to collaborate with other similar teams in other e-infrastructures for integrated delivery.
- Facilitate the integration of federation experts on a case-by-case basis for service delivery.
- Provide a framework under which these support cases can be handled.
Where AARC and other appropriate projects base their developments on GÉANT infrastructure, advise and support them in their pilots.
