• A science VO signs a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with another VO. The agreement covers the sharing of data and tools, and the management of accounts within each individual VO is opaque to the other. Rather than enter in to a lengthy discussion of which users need to be added to each others groups, the first VO accepts entire group information from the other VO.
