NA3.3N | U-N-3 U-N-13 | Requirements Gathering | Some information was received on our mailing list, we have obtained a lot of useful feedback from the representatives of organizations on the NGI meeting, organized in November 2011. It appears that users need HPC cluster for their work (at the moment we do not provide one). | 4 | Since there is a need of HPC cluster, we will set up one in 2011. |

NA3.3N | U-N-16 U-N-17 | Training | ARC school was organized in May 2010, since then no trainings for users were organized. We have organized NGI meeting in November 2010 and invited the interested faculties, institutes and agencies. Further technical support was available by mailing lists and (video)conferences. We have provided a detailed documentation for the end users and for site administrators. | 3 | When needed we will organize a workshop for end users (more interest for Nordugrid Arc middleware). |
NA3.3N | U-N-12 U-N-18 U-N-19 | Consultancy | Since we have a small grid community, we have provided all the necessary support by mailing lists and instant messaging. Some face to face meetings we arranged as well, where we have advised our users individually. | 4 | We are satisfied with the work done, but there is always room for improvements. Face to face meetings are hard to arrange (we do not have a lot of staff with time and/or necessary skills). |
