<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am pleased to invite you to the User Requirements Workshop for DesignSafe, the cyberinfrastructure (CI) for NHERI that is being developed by a team headquartered at the University of Texas. The workshop will take place in Austin, Texas
on January 11-12, 2016. The main goal of the User Requirements Workshop is to bring together researchers from the natural hazards engineering community to inform the CI development process. This workshop is an important part of this process because it will
help ensure that the functionalities provided by the CI will enable the next generation of research focused on engineering against the natural hazards of earthquakes and windstorms. In addition to the workshop, we are planning pre-workshop webinars for the
workshop attendees that will present details about our vision for the CI, explain the CI development process, and provide background about the workshop.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please RSVP for the Workshop by sending an email to <a href="mailto:rsvp@designsafe-ci.org">
