[wsdm][terms] First pass of the terminology document is attached

Title: Message

This is for review 
at the F2F tomorrow.  Unfortunately, I cannot attend in person due 
to overlapping meetings in San Jose at this time. Karl Schopmeyer 
graciously offered to run my portion of the agenda and collect 
comments, suggestions, etc. 

 

I tried to take 
the terms that we debated early on (in the requirements discussions) and define 
them succinctly (and non-circularly).  Also, I have reviewed 
the "Resource Management on Grids" document from the GGF's CMM WG (authored 
by Fred Maciel) and found that there are some differences in terms, but no major 
disconnects.  (I would appreciate hearing if others disagree with 
this.)  I think that we have some work to do to align terms, but this seems 
do-able.

 

So, next steps 
are:

1. Determine if the 
format of the document is sufficient for the task

2. 
Determine what terms are missing or what terms should not be in the 
document

3. Review the 
existing definitions and make form or semantic 
suggestions 

 

Thanks.

Andrea
