ICFA Study Group on Data Preservation and Long Term Analysis in High Energy Physics

High Energy Physics experiments initiate with this Study Group a common reflection on data persistency and long term analysis in order to get a common vision on these issues and create a multi-experiment dynamics for further reference. The objectives of the Study Groups are:
     *Review and document the physics objectives of the data persistency in HEP.
     *Exchange information concerning the analysis model: abstraction, software, documentation etc. and identify coherence points.
     *Address the harware and software persistency status
     *Review possible fundings programs and other related international initiatives.
     *Converge to a common set of specifications in a document that will constitute the basis for future collaborations.
Since August 2009, the Study Group is endorsed by
  ICFA (International Committee for Future Accelerators).
