A workshop on data and networking needs for LHC-related experiments will be held Wed. Feb. 14, 2007 at Texas A&M University, co-sponsored by Internet2, TIGRE, THEGrid and LEARN.
A workshop on data and networking needs for LHC-related experiments will be held Wed. Feb. 14, 2007 at Texas A&M University. This is the first in a series of 1 day workshops to develop a common understanding of how university-based physicists will obtain, transfer and use LHC data. This workshop will bring together university-based physicists and the Campus/Regional/Connector/National network providers to develop a common understanding of what is required to meet the science needs. This instance of the workshop is co-sponsored by the Texas High Energy Grid, Texas Internet Grid for Research and Education, Lone Star Education and Research Network, and Internet2. All LHC-related scientists and support staff for whom this conference is convenient in the surrounding area are invited.
The focus of the meeting series is on determining the networking and data transfer requirements for Tier-3 university-based science analysis for LHC data. It is crucial to obtain sufficient input from science groups at individual institutions in order to plan properly for the orderly deployment of LHC data. If your group plans to analyze, handle, transfer or consume LHC data, you need to attend or have representation at this workshop!
In-person attendance is strongly encouraged. Limited videoconferencing will be available. For further information and registration, see the link:
