SPECTRUM Key Deliverables now available

First project period deliverables now all available

The key results of the first project period (January 2024 – April 2025) are now available for consultation and download:

• D3.1 Community of Practice – Interim report: This deliverable describes the work executed in WP3 and in particular by the SPECTRUM Community of Practice (CoP). In the first 15 months of the SPECTRUM project, WP3 successfully launched a Community of Practice among diverse communities such as High Energy Physics, Radio Astronomy and e-Infrastructure managers and administrators. The CoP is divided into 6 Working Groups, with more than 115 participants. It includes survey results and a review of the WP3 Knowledge Hub.
• D5.1 Representative use cases: analysis and alignment: This deliverable contains a collection and analysis of requirements from representative use cases for next-generation big data sciences; prominent use cases from fundamental research in areas of  High Energy Physics and  Radio Astronomy; as well as other related fields; a Cross-cutting analysis of requirements; and a gap analysis.
• D5.2 Interoperable access policies: analysis and recommendations: This deliverable contains an analysis of access policies of 20 European e-Infrastructures in the areas of High-Performance Computing, High-Throughput Computing, Cloud Computing, and Data, which are open for use by European scientists. A comparation and contrast with the requirements of European research communities with a focus on the High-Energy Physics and Radio Astronomy fields and the use cases described in SPECTRUM Deliverable D5.1 (Representative use cases: analysis and alignment). It also contains contains recommendations for the future evolution of the access policies to meet the current and future needs of European researchers.
• D5.3 Landscape of RIs: technologies, services, gaps: This deliverable contains an analysis of the technical characteristics of 20 European e-Infrastructures in the areas of High-Performance Computing, High-Throughput Computing, Cloud Computing, and Data, which are open for use by European scientists; it compares and contrasts them with the requirements of European research communities, in particular the High-Energy Physics and Radio Astronomy fields, with a focus on the use cases described in SPECTRUM Deliverable D5.1 (Representative use cases: analysis and alignment), and identifies and discusses recommendations for the future evolution of the e-Infrastructure landscape in Europe.
