Fusion Grid
Project Management

The National Fusion Collaboratory Project is developing a persistent infrastructure to enable scientific collaboration for all aspects of magnetic fusion energy research. Specifically, the project is creating a robust, user-friendly collaborative software environment and deploying this to the more than one thousand fusion scientists in forty institutions who perform magnetic fusion research in the United States.

Given that 6 different institutions compose the project team and the user community is geographically separated across the United States, efficient project management is critical to the success of the project. The Management Plan details the overall management philosophy and includes a discussion on goals, team members, management, and project oversight.T he Project Workplan evolves as developments warrant but represents approximately an 18 month work time frame. Finally, the Project submits a Quarterly Report to DOE to track progress. These reports are available upon request from the Lead-PI, David Schissel.
