The User Advisory Committee (UAC) represents the "user's voice" to XSEDE management, presenting recommendations regarding emerging needs and services and acts as a sounding board for plans and suggested developments.  It reviews findings of XSEDE's Performance Evaluation Plan and Self Assessment, and its User Survey. Subsets of the UAC advise ECSS management on where to dedicate support effort on community codes. One member of the UAC serves on the User Requirements Evaluation and Prioritization Working Group (UREP). The chair of the UAC (elected by its members) participates in regular XSEDE senior management meetings (currently bi-weekly). There are 15-20 members of the UAC. It meets every few months by conference call. The term of office is 2 years.
