1) Early discussion (20 min)

         Roll call
         Telecon minutes approval (if available)
         Action Items status review (see the bottom of this email)

2) OGSA F2F meeting agenda update (20 min)
         F2F agenda on Sep. 14 (Thur) and 15 (Fri)
         https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1555?nav=1

3) EMS scenarios (Andreas and Steven, 30 min)
         EMS architecture scenario document review
         - https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc12749?nav=1

4) EMS & Data joint scenario (30 min)
>   Agreed that a good first candidate scenario is simple job execution
>   with data staging. In particular the combination of JSDL, BES, Data
>   transfer service (DMI based?).
> 
>   AI-0817b: Stephen Davey will do a cut down parameter sweep scenario
>             focusing on the JSDL+BES+Data Transfer/Staging service
> 
>   The aim is to discuss it at least within Data at the Data F2F (Aug
>   28-30 @Edinburgh) and with EMS at GGF18. Since many Data members
>   will be leaving on Thursday it would be good to arrange some time
>   early on Thursday (OGSA F2F).

5) Wrap up (10 min)

<*ACTION ITEMS*>
https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1569?nav=1

 > From Aug. 17 call
   AI-0817a: Dave Berry and Jay Unger will approach groups (GIN,
             Globus, etc) that have implemented practical grids and
             start a discussion on how they handle data:
             - how data is treated as a resource that can be scheduled
             - how transfers are modeled
             - how files are advertised
             - how applications find files (query, by knowledge,?)
   AI-0817b: Stephen Davey will do a cut down parameter sweep scenario
             focusing on the JSDL+BES+Data Transfer/Staging service

 > From Aug. 10 call
   AI-0810a: Donal to look into the relation of the EPS and CDL
             (retrieval, update, etc). (Eventually this should probably
             become a separate scenario.)

 > From Aug. 3 call
   AI-0803e: Jun will provide an example of the CDL mechanism and why
             using ID/IDREF is not a good idea.
   AI-0803f: Jun will update the CDL document to remove the Environment
             variables

 > > From July 20 F2F
- EGR-WG (Ravi) will contact Geoffrey Fox and invites him to
   contribute use cases.
- Andreas to go through the minutes and formulate a reply mail to
   Geoffrey on each artifact covered in these minutes.

<postponed>
- Steve McGough & Andreas to do a mapping from the current JSDL
   elements / terminology into the new information model structure
   (Proposed split into Description and Requirements)
   (from July 18th F2F, By GGF18 as original discussed.)
