In order to develop robust performance assessment models, we have been preparing an information basis regarding glass properties and glass dissolution/alteration processes under disposal conditions as a part of NUMO-JAEA joint project. Our iterative working process for the preparation of the information basis comprises five steps: (1) integration of current knowledge; (2) development of glass dissolution scenarios based on current knowledge; (3) development of conceptual model; (4) sensitivity analyses to evaluate relative importance of relevant processes and associated uncertainties; and (5) identification of future R&D issues towards further improvement of the information basis. The current status will be presented in this talk.
