Actors in a hackfest

A hackfest is a coming together of various players, in order to achieve something that cannot be done by working alone. Everyone has a role to play, and these are the clearest :

  • organiser: The institute responsible for making the infrastructure and space available to the participants and facilitators. Organisers are the ones who bring the money and resources to the table.
  • participant : someone who comes to the hackfest with the goal of developing a new application or service
  • facilitator : someone who knows the tools of the open science platform and is responsible for giving the overviews of them, as well as facilitating the development of the new applications proposed by the participants. Can overlap with presenter
  • presenter: The presenters could in principle be different to the facilitators, although these are usually the same people. They are responsible for making the presentations in the first two days of the hackfest.
  • services: Automated agents are used to help the facilitators and participants
