[Cuga] Future Trends in Nuclear Physics Computing (May 2-5, JLab) - a message by M. Diefenthaler

[Lorelei Chopard]

Dear Colleague:

The second workshop on “Future Trends in Nuclear Physics Computing” will 
be held from May 2-5 at Jefferson Lab. The event will begin with an 
afternoon symposium with forward-looking topics, followed by 2.5 days of 
plenary talks and discussions.

We will examine our hardware and software strategy at a time horizon of 
ten years. Our goal is to work towards the definition of a common vision 
for Nuclear Physics (NP) computing and data and recommend future 
directions for development. In our discussions, we will adopt a data 
perspective and will focus on the following areas:

  * resource management and the interplay of I/O, compute and storage,
  * machine learning for enhancing scientific productivity and
    appropriate task based approaches,
  * software portability, reusability and common infrastructure components.


The workshop is intended for both the NP and High-Energy Physics (HEP) 
community and we particularly encourage young scientists to attend. The 
registration page is available on our website 
(https://www.jlab.org/conferences/trends2017) with limited travel 
support for Ph.D. students. A summary of the workshop and its goal can 
be found on: https://www.jlab.org/conferences/trends2017/poster.pdf

Yours sincerely,

Amber Boehnlein, Markus Diefenthaler, and Graham Heyes (local organizers)
