NA2.2N | E-N-2 | Dissemination | CyGrid during the first year in EGI, has promoted their work mainly concentrating in its visibility to the user communities, most important activities of dissemination had been in the form of training events and support to the users.
The NGI website, http://cygrid.org.cy has proved to be an important medium for disseminating activities and findings to a larger audience. Activities have been made available on the website. Researchers have contacted us via the website requesting information. Other channels for dissemination were a number of Scientific Papers presented at international conferences, seminars and workshops. CyGrid has participated in a number of scientific events organized at national level. Further dissemination took the form of Lectures and discussions organised by CyGrid team members. Due to the funding allocated to this activity, the amount of effort required for such an activity is not covered by its funding. With 8.75 hours funded per month, it is difficult to manage the part where materials are needed to be produced, the website maintainance and the necessary effort in the form of travelling to events. For the moment, the activity is sustainable. We have achieved a greater visibility to the national user community, and this has been of big importance. |
4.5 | For the second year, we plan to maintain our visibility through the local website, and be more active in the organization of scientific events and the production of material, being through Lectures, teaching material, workshops or discussions, and to find further opportunities for dissemination |
