<H1>IVOA Theory: Science Use Cases</H1>
<br/>
The use cases reachable form this page are meant
to guide the discussions and working of the Theory Interest Group.
They are therefore foremost meant to derive requirements for the
working groups that are of a theoretical nature.
There is (as yet) no prescribed structure for these use cases. 
One may look at the registry's 
[[IVOA.RegistryUseCases][use cases page]] or to AstroGrid's
[[http://wiki.astrogrid.org/bin/view/Astrogrid/UseCases][list]] for examples. On 
[[IvoaTheoryUseCasesTemplate][this page]] you can find a template to copy and paste that mimicks the AstroGrid style.

<H2>Conclusions</H2>
[Under construction...]<br/>
Here we compile a first list of requirements (requests/questions) extracted from the use cases listed above. This list will likely need to be turned into a
document of the appropriate IVOA style, but how to communicate the requirements/requests/questions to the WGs, which is supposedly the task of an IG, is actually one of the questions to the Standards WG.<br/>

   * Resource Registry
      * ...
   * UCD
      * ...
   * Data Modelling
      * Need of data model for describing simulation metadata for discovery 
      * ...
   * Data Access Layer
      * Proposal for Simple Numeric Access Protocol under construction (PeterTeuben)
      * Standard for transferring very large datasets necessary
   * VO Event
      * ...
   * VO Query Language
      * Non-sky SkyNode required for dealing with datasets that do not contain objects on the sky (no region, cross-match) etc.
   * Grid & Web Services
      * Support for Virtual Telescop implementation
   * Standards & Process
      * (How) should the interaction between IGs and WGs be formalized ?
   * VOTable
      * Settle on way for wrapping binary data inside of VOTable
      * ...
