Ambition
The CC drives collaboration between EOSC-hub and the ORFEUS-EIDA federation of EPOS. The CC collects and assesses the requirements of the solid-Earth science community, with a specific focus on Seismology, and addresses them by leveraging the EOSC-hub technical offerings. The CC delivers a software platform that facilitates access and exploitation of computational resources; it supports and fosters harmonisation of best practices for data management at ORFEUS-EIDA; and it enables the generation of seismological products customised on user requirements.
User stories
Instruction
Requirements are based on a user story, which is is an informal, natural language description of one or more features of a software system. User stories are often written from the perspective of an end user or user of a system. Depending on the community, user stories may be written by various stakeholders including clients, users, managers or development team members. They facilitate sensemaking and communication, that is, they help software teams organize their understanding of the system and its context. Please do not confuse user story with system requirements. A user story is an informal description of a feature; a requirement is a formal description of need (See section later).
User stories may follow one of several formats or templates. The most common would be:
"As a <role>, I want <capability> so that <receive benefit>"
"In order to <receive benefit> as a <role>, I want <goal/desire>"
"As <persona>, I want <what?> so that <why?>" where a persona is a fictional stakeholder (e.g. user). A persona may include a name, picture; characteristics, behaviours, attitudes, and a goal which the product should help them achieve.
Example:
“As provider of the Climate gateway I want to empower researchers from academia to interact with datasets stored in the Climate Catalogue, and bring their own applications to analyse this data on remote cloud servers offered via EGI.”
No. | User stories |
|---|---|
US1 | As a provider of an EIDA data centre I want to provide users with an authentication and authorisation service in order to enable them to securely access restricted and embargoed data. |
US2 | As a seismological researcher I want to search for datasets offered by EIDA and stage them on the available cloud infrastructure offered by EOSC providers. |
US3 | As a seismological researcher I want to analyse my data in a Jupyter environment, pre-populated with my preferred libraries and with access to my pre-staged datasets. I want to store results in my personal workspace/storage area and eventually share them with my colleagues |
| US4 | As an EIDA data manager I want to define my data management policies and share them with my colleagues at EIDA data centres. I want to enable them to understand, adjust and apply DM policies at their data centres. |
Use cases
Instruction
A use case is a list of actions or event steps typically defining the interactions between a role (known in the Unified Modeling Language as an actor) and a system to achieve a goal.
Include in this section any diagrams that could facilitate the understanding of the use cases and their relationships.
Step | Description of action | Dependency on 3rd party services (EOSC-hub or other) |
|---|---|---|
UC1 | A researcher request to access the services of the EPOS-ORFEUS CC. He is redirected to the CC Authentication Service (based on B2ACCESS) where he registers. He receives a token. Depending on his profile he might be authorised to use the services of the CC. Profiles include for instance: data manager, special user (who has access to restricted data) and normal user | |
UC2 | Data Staging UC | |
UC3 | Data Analysis UC |
