PO-IA-3.2.1 Initial Definition of Validation Scenarios — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:57

This deliverable aims to collect and to systematically document the scenarios existing in S-Cube materials. These scenarios will be used in the follow up deliverable CD-IA-3.2.2 to validate the research framework and to support the validation of the individual research results. To approach this goal, the following three elements are represented in this document: First, the systematic guidelines are defined in order to describe the scenarios in a uniform way and to link them with the industrial case-studies provided in IA-2.2. Second, the existing scenarios produced by the S-Cube partners are collected and documented according to the guidelines. Third, based on this initial set of scenarios, we demonstrate with the help of examples how the scenarios should be used to validate S-Cube results.

CD-IA-3.2.2 Results of the First Validation — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:58

In this deliverable we present the vision and strategy of the workpackage WP-IA-3.2. This strategy foresees a rigorous method to validate the Integrated Research Framework (IRF). This validation is split into two aspects: an internal verification and an external validation. Given the fact that this is the first validation round, this deliverable concentrates on the internal verification. Therefore, the objectives of the workpackage specified in the description of work are broken down into goals, which are operationalized as questions. Each question is further refined as metrics, which is used to query the IRF database. Based on these quantitative data, we derive a set of recommendations for future work on the IRF and in the S-Cube project.

CD-IA-3.2.4 Results of the Second Validation — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 20:36

In this document, Deliverable CD-IA-3.2.4 “Results of the Second Validation” we report the validation of the integration of the IRF building blocks, i.e., the results of task T-IA-3.2.1. This deliverable describes the vision and strategy of the work package WP-IA-3.2 (using the Description of Work Amendment #4 as basis). A description of the work package’s roadmap until the end of the S-Cube project is given, including the validation strategy and the interaction with other WPs. The validation method is introduced and applied to the IRF. The results of this application are listed. Finally, the summarized results and the conclusions are presented.

PO-IA-3.2.6 Results of the Initial Empirical Evaluation — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:58

This deliverable reports the results of empirical evaluation activities undertaken by S-Cube partners for the validation of research results. The systematic guidelines and templates used for the documentation of validation results and their related aspects are detailed. The initial set of collected validation results, documented according to these guidelines, is then presented. Finally, planned, upcoming evaluation activities are introduced.

PO-IA-3.2.7 Results of the Second Empirical Evaluation — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 21:07

This deliverable is the continuation of deliverable PO-IA-3.2.6 and reports the results of empirical evaluation activities undertaken by S-Cube partners for the validation of research results in year three of the network. The systematic guidelines and templates used for the documentation of validation results and their related aspects are detailed. The set of collected validation results, documented according to these guidelines, is then presented. Finally, planned, upcoming evaluation activities are introduced.
