Description by Tommaso of SPECTRUM objectives (slides 7-14 in the presentation below)
Main objective of WG5: identify a list of use cases enough understood and documented about HPC/data needs and bottlenecks of HEP/RA communities
Q: a lot of science use cases list and related documents already exist. What should we do more? A: identify cases specifically related to HPC/data challenges. Do not forget needs not necessarily included in experiments'/observatories' usual documents (e.g. theoretical physics needs)
Q: do we agree with having a minimum input to the CoP survey by WG5? A: yes, WG5-like surveys already exist in this respect
Q: what are the criteria for identifying meaningful use cases? Do examples already exist of well documented Use Cases about data/computing needs? A: yes, in particular in HEP → It has been decided that, during the next meeting of WG5, some HEP colleagues will present a few examples
Q: is there a connection between this activity and the on-going SKA Regional Center discussions/organisation? A: yes, a lot, in particular for European SRC nodes
It has been decided that we will record meetings via zoom from next time on
