Detailed structure. Because EGEE aims to integrate various national and international Grid infrastructures it will require an overall central management organisation flexible enough to smoothly integrate with the pre-existing management infrastructures, while on the other hand it will require enough authority to lead and control the overall development of the joint research activities and the provision of the planned services. The lead partner will appoint a dedicated overall Project Director. Xx. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, the designated project director, has repeatedly demonstrated his considerable experience and skills in organizing and running large international projects. His most recent notable success has been the management of the EU DataGrid project (xxx.xxx.xxx). He will be assisted by a project office, modelled on the basis and the experience of the EU DataGrid project, but expanded and strengthened to meet the requirements of the EGEE I3. In particular the senior CERN management have recognised the need to provide dedicated financial and legal support to the project in order to ensure that the financial and legal responsibilities, passed from the European Commission to the coordinating partner in the context of the new Framework 6 instruments, are properly resourced. A senior financial administrator, two administrative assistants and a project secretary will form the administrative part of the office. The EGEE project office will receive assistance from the CERN legal services during the project negotiation and execution; if necessary a dedicated budget line will be allocated for specific legal consulting. The management staff funded via activity NA1 is summarised in Table B below. Partner Role Effort in FTE (EU funded + unfunded) CERN Project Director 1.0 + 0.0 CERN Technical Director 1.0 + 0.0 CERN Financial Administrator 1.0 + 0.0 CERN Administrative Assistant 2.0 + 0.0 CERN Project Secretary 1.0 + 0.0 total 6.0 + 0.0 Table B NA1 effort (funded and unfunded) in FTEs A public relations (PR) and dissemination officer and a documentation/WEB publishing assistant will complete the Project Office staff but are included in the funding of activity NA2. In parallel with the financial and administrative management, the technical and scientific management structure will be composed as follows: • A Technical Director will be in charge of the overall coordination of the various technical activities (each of these activities will deploy their own internal technical management structure) and will act as Deputy Project Director. Dr. Xxxxxx Xxxxx has been designated for this position. • An Operations manager will be in charge of the overall operation of the EGEE Grid infrastructure. In the first phase of the project this role will be performed by the LCG Operations manager. Xx. Xxx Xxxx has been designated for this position. • A Middleware manager supervising the Middleware re-engineering and coordinating the middleware activities in the middleware clusters. Xx. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx has been designated for this position. • A Quality Engineer Head responsible for overall quality assurance across all activities of the project. Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx has been designated for this position. • A Security Head responsible for overall grid security aspects across the middleware re-engineering and grid operations activities of the project. Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx has been designated for this position. • The Manager of the dissemination, outreach, training activities. Xxxx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx has been designated for this position. • An Application manager responsible for representing all the application domains that make use of the grid infrastructure. Xx. Xxx Xxxxxxx has been designated for this position. • A Network Head responsible for network provision and developments for the grid infrastructure. Xx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx has been nominated for the position. All these managers will form the Project Executive Board (PEB). With the exception of the project and technical directors, the PEB members are funded via the appropriate activity. This board will meet weekly (in person or by telephone conference calls) and ensure the daily management of the project. The Project Director will chair and manage this board. The heads of the transversal activities (Quality Assurance, Security) are present in the Project Executive Board to ensure appropriate managerial awareness on these very critical issues and prompt reaction in case of problems from the senior project management. Given the strong interdependency between EGEE and one of the two main pilot applications (Particle Physics) at least in the launch phase, the head of the Operation is provided by the correspondent position in the LCG PEB (xxx.xxxx.xx/xxx). Conversely the Technical Director and the Middleware manager will participate in the LCG PEB. The EGEE Project Director will liaise directly with the LCG Project Leader and exchange participation in the relevant senior boards. Since CERN is leading partner of both projects and both the above positions will be covered by CERN senior staff, any potential conflict will be resolved in a conciliation procedure sponsored by the CERN Director General.
