NEXPReS: Novel Explorations Pushing Robust e-VLBI Services Period 1 Report

Deliverables and Milestones Tables


The following tables list the deliverables and milestones for the project as originally listed in
the DoW. The deliverables are split into two sections: completed and remaining. The
milestones are listed together.
Note that the status of the deliverables are categorized as:
x = Ongoing effort
4 = Deliverable completed and presented to Project Manager
3 = Deliverable in draft form
2 = Most work completed
1 = Some work started
0 = No work started
--> = Deliverable has been identified as actively delayed
Completed deliverables are available in several different formats. A physical copy of each has
been printed (as possible) for each and presented to the Commission with the Period Report.
The report is also provided in digital form with a simple HTML index which links completed
deliverables with digital copies of the final product. Additionally, all deliverables and
milestones are also linked in the project wiki:
