The PI’s and delegates/admins role is to:

  • Add/remove users from their group

  • Attend the weekly Pawsey Radio Astronomy Technical group (RTG) when possible, to escalate issues from their group and get news from Pawsey’s supercomputing team

  • Provide a contact for Pawsey and MWA researchers to discuss issues (e.g. when one group’s work causes issues with others, etc).
