2.2 The MOLTO Advisory Board

The task of the MOLTO advisory board is to perform independent quality assurance and assess the progress of the work. It is composed by leading scientists that are outside the MOLTO Consortium. This choice serves two purposes: to obtain an independent opinion on the research and approaches taken by MOLTO, and to disseminate the work done by the project to related scientific communities.

The final composition of the Advisory Board is the following:

• Prof. Stephen Pulman, Computing Laboratory Oxford, http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/people/Stephen.Pulman/
• Keith Hall, Google Research Zurich, http://web.me.com/khallbobo/KeithHall/Home.html

Schedule of regular meetings

Members of the Advisory Board are expected to attend the second yearly meeting, namely project meetings 2, 4, and 6 to learn about the yearly outcome of MOLTO. Their travel costs will be funded by MOLTO.

Activities of the Advisory Boards

The Advisory Board will write an assessment report which will be delivered as part of the yearly report to the Commission. This report will evaluate the results and, if desirable, suggest ways to improve them.
