Everybody

• Check to see that there is enough money budgeted for all necessary travel: Project Weeks, AHM, core retreats, working meetings, participation in outreach activities.

DBP

Although the full NA-MIC team is engaged in supporting the DBPs, each DBP is assigned a specific partner from the Computer Science Cores 1A and 1B who is responsible for either providing technical support to the DBP directly, or for connecting them to the relevant NA-MIC resources. Partners are allocated a separate line item in the budget that is distinctly allocated to support their time and travel to the DBP site.

DBP teams

• Each new DBP must host an in-person kick-off meeting at their site with their algorithm and engineering partners before end of the year. The goal of this meeting is to develop concrete and short term plans for the DBP roadmap project.
  • Utah-NA-MIC-2010-Kickoff
  • Iowa-NA-MIC-2010-Kickoff
  • MGH-NA-MIC-2010-Kickoff
  • UCLA-NA-MIC-2010-Kickoff
• Each DBP will report their plans during their AHM presentation.
• It is crucial to identify the DBP engineer as soon as possible.

Computer Science

• Algorithm retreat before the end of the year
• Engineering TCON participation is mandatory for each site. Each engineering group has to be represented at all engineering TCON's.

Leadership

• Press Release

Outreach

• Update the website after NOGA is issued
• Plan Slicer training on the west coast
• Consider a NAMIC training activity at University of Utah to be done in conjunction with January 2011 AHM.
