Common use of BioMed Applications Clause in Contracts

BioMed Applications. Once the applications are selected, the proposing institutes will be invited to carry on with their deployment on the EGEE infrastructure. A significant fraction of the resources allocated to this activity will be devoted to supporting the migration of these new applications. In particular, a team of CNRS engineers will be in charge of providing this support, which involves the organization and the administration of the biomedical virtual organization(s), the interface between application developers and middleware groups, application oriented training and user support. For this task, the CNRS team is expected to work in close relationship with the engineers at Universidad Politecnica xx Xxxxxxxx and CNB/CSIC to share expertise and provide extended user support. Regular meetings by tele- and videoconference are foreseen. All institutes involved with the applications will be encouraged to dedicate part of their resources to become an EGEE node. Care will be taken to include in EGEE grid facility sites having adequate support for middleware installation and maintenance. Training sessions will be organized in connection with Networking Activity 3. This task being central to the success of the activity, the equivalent of 4FTE will be dedicated to it, including a CNRS team of 3 engineers and the equivalent of 1FTE from Spanish institutes.
