Objectives
Supporting the development of policy within and external to EGI.eu in conjunction with EGI‘s stakeholders relating to governance, standardisation and integration with other infrastructures.
Description of Work
A Strategy Planning and Policy manager will coordinate the work of this task and will report to the activity leader, the Project Director. Policies are needed to govern the provision of a high-quality distributed-computing production-oriented infrastructure. EGI.eu, the coordinating body for this community, provides management and policy groups for developing and approving policies relating to operations, software quality, security, user communities and general governance. The development of these policies is supported by the project and may have relevance and impact with other European (e.g. DEISA & PRACE) and International e infrastructure providers (e.g. Open Science Grid, TeraGrid) who will be involved in these policy discussions as appropriate.
