For this and other collaboratories to work successfully, each collaboratory must be provided a shared environment, so we must plan, build and maintain that technical environment. We must leverage collaborative resources. ADEC seems to be a good platform. This will help us select priorities. For collaboratories and collaboratory work to happen, a shared environment must be provided.
Somebody has to plan, build and maintain that environment.
This team will build the infrastructure for the colaboratory implementation. This will be a two-stage process. Implementation will start in January 2002. These ideas are relevant to Pew, Sloan, etc. It is time to reflect our historic ability to come together to design multi-institutional programming.
