Assessment and Validation Sample Clauses

Assessment and Validation. (months 10-36). The technical and administrative management are active throughout the whole project life-cycle, as are the dissemination and exploitation of the project results. The workplan has been broken down into ten work packages (WP0-9): WP0 is devoted to Project Management; WP1 deals with the definition of the user requirements; WP2 is devoted to definition of the overall architectural methodology and design; WP3 to WP7 will develop and evaluate the MEANING tools and resources; WP8 deals with the user validation of tools and resources provided by MEANING and with the final demonstration; WP9 deals with Exploitation and Dissemination. For each work package a WP leader is in charge to co-ordinate the work, to monitor the planned activities and to check the overall quality of the deliverables produced. The WP leader is technically responsible for the results achieved and to report them to the Project Management Board and to the Project Manager . Five milestones at months 6, 12, 21, 30 and 36 have been fixed to assess the intermediate results and to identify the end of crucial phases of the project. Purposes of this phase are: to refine the ideas about the tasks to be performed, computing equipment, definition of what is expected from the MEANING project in order to produce a complete definition of the user requirements; to provide the developers with an overall architectural design of the whole MEANING process. to analyse the statements of user requirements and produce a set of software requirements as complete, consistent and correct as possible; The outcomes of this phase are: the User Requirements Report (deliverable D1.1); the Overall Architectural Design Document (deliverable D2.1); WPs involved are from WP1 to WP8: in this early phase of the project users and developers work together to model the user services specifications and to define the technical specifications of all the MEANING components, which will be further developed in the next phase. The milestone to be achieved is then related to the achievements of the objectives above described: User requirements; Overall Architectural Design and Software Requirements This phase is central to the project, and aims to develop all the software tools and resources to produce the final MEANING outcomes. The development is organised in three consecutive cycles involving WP3-7. Four work packages, from WP3 to WP6, have been identified to carry out the development of the software tools. They will carry ...
