Announcement of the "7th International GridKa School" (August 31st to
September 4th, 2009) at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
GridKa School is a one-week summer school for grid computing and
e-Science. It is arranged by the Steinbuch Centre for Computing (SCC) of
the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT, the cooperation of
Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe GmbH and Universitaet Karlsruhe), together
with the project "Sustainable Grid Infrastructure" (SuGI, which is part
of the D-Grid initiative), the HGF Alliance "Physics at the Terascale",
and the project 'Enabling Grids for E-Science' (EGEE). In addition.
Topics of the school are taken from the scopes of these and other
projects and beyond.
About 50% of the school consist of hands-on tutorials and workshops,
giving participants the possibility to gain actual expertise on
different kinds of middleware, applications and techniques. Because
these tutorials are offered in parallel tracks, GridKa school practicals
cover topics well suited for beginners, experienced users and grid
administrators. The high grade talks and presentations give an
up-to-date overview on important and interesting grid subjects.
The program is completed by a 'get together' event (incl. a guided tour
of the German WLCG Tier-1 center 'GridKa'), a school dinner, a poster
session (students are encouraged to present their work) and a grid
security workshop; the later is targeted at administrators.
Applicants from all scientific and industry disciplines are welcome to
apply online at www.fzk.de/gks09; the full preliminary schedule is
listed on this homepage. Before July 31st, registrants can take
advantage of an early bird discount. The organizing team reserves the
right to limit the number of participants, if necessary.

For the Grid School organizing team,
