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.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">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 <font class="">Nuclear
Physics (NP)</font> 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:

<div class="">
<ul class="MailOutline">
<li class="">resource management and the interplay
of I/O, compute and storage,</li>
<li class="">machine learning for enhancing
scientific productivity and appropriate task
based approaches,</li>
<li class="">software portability, reusability and
common infrastructure components.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
The workshop is intended for both the NP and <font
class=""><span class="">High-Energy Physics (HEP)</span> </font>community
and we particularly encourage young scientists to
attend. The registration page is available on our
website (<a moz-do-not-send="true"

class="">https://www.jlab.org/conferences/trends2017</a>) with
limited travel support for Ph.D. students. A summary
of the workshop and its goal can be found on: <a
