Most of the requirement text is from this document and where we disagree, we have indicated this

This document

The sections of this document are:

1. Abstract
2. Terminology and definitions
3. Grid use models

Abstract

To be written last

However, it should include some definitions of "must" and "should" etc. AND a discussion of the grid model (e.g. Customer-Service, Technical Research User (agnostic of node), Technical Research User (node specific), Privacy/Conf./High security etc. (The musts and shoulds will be different for each grid model)

Terminology and definitions

To be written late-on when we know what we need.

Grid use models
