Define Slicer/Gwiz interface, calling protocol, polling interface
Identify necessary changes to Slicer3 (e.g., password collection?)
Work on existing code-level issues (e.g., code redesign)
Identify minimum protocol set (e.g., GSI, ssh keys, condor, sge)
Agree on delivery schedule
Deliverables: UML for SPI, XML schemas, project plan with milestones
Clinical:
Accomplished by end of Programming Week
Discussed using BatchMake as an underlying grid execution technology
Agreed on an overall workflow for running tasks on a grid
Code improvements to GridWizard
