Deliverables

Documents, reports (5)

User Evaluation Protocol

Presentation of the SYNERGISE user evaluation protocol describing how the technologies are evaluated during the field tests and how are documented

FR scenarios, use cases and requirements

Scenario and use cases and conversion of FR needs and capability gaps into requirements that the SYNERGISE technologies have to fulfil

SYNERGISE Ethics and Privacy Handbook

The handbook provides a comprehensive guide to the code of good practice and the documentation requirements related to ethical and privacy issues

Dissemination and communication plan

Plan that sets out a strategy for the communication and dissemination of information. It outlines a plan to connect the relevant target audiences with SYNERGISE results by means of appropriate communication tools. It also provides the framework for the international network around the project
