  • Introduction

    • The e-Infrastructure for Social Simulation project (e-ISS) was renamed to the National e-Infrastructure for Social Simulation (Ne-ISS) at its Kick-Off Meeting.
    • NeISS is a JISC funded project under the Information Environment Programme 2009-11.
    • The project name NeISS is pronounced "nice".
    • It started on 2009-04-01 and is due to complete on 2012-03-31.
    • The University of Leeds research grant code for e-ISS is:
      • RG.GEOG.476950
    • This page is for organising information about NeISS. It is useful in addition to other Web Content and resources about it:

  • People

    • There have been dozens of contributors and collaborators with the project. Only a fraction of the project team have worked on it throughout.
    • A list is maintained on Andy Turner's NCeSS Sakai Portal : My Workspace Worksite : Wiki : e-ISS Page
      • http://portal.ncess.ac.uk/access/wiki/site/%7Ea.g.d.turner%40leeds.ac.uk/e-iss.html
      • This list is incomplete. There are others that have been involved in Steering Committee's and through collaborating projects and by supporting us to get the computational infrastructure to work that are not listed yet and may never be. If you have been involved and want to be listed, then drop me a line. Thanks to all that have been involved.
