Dear
all,
The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) would like to announce
the 11th international summer school "GridKa School 2013: Big
Data, Clouds and Grids". It is one of the leading summer schools
for advanced computing techniques in Europe. The school provides a
forum for scientists and technology leaders, experts and novices
to facilitate knowledge sharing and information exchange. The
target audience are different groups like grid and cloud newbies,
advanced users as well as site administrators, graduate and PhD
students in computing and science disciplines.
GridKa
School is hosted by Steinbuch Centre for Computing (SCC) of
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). It is organized by KIT
and the HGF Alliance "Physics at the Terascale". This year the
11th school will be held in Karlsruhe, Germany from August 26 to
30, 2013.
The technical program of the school comprises plenary talks and
hands on tutorials on the following topics:
You could check the full agenda of the school following the link: https://indico.scc.kit.edu/indico/conferenceTimeTable.py?confId=26#all.detailed
Half of the school consists of expert talks, which cover the
fundamental and theoretical aspects of the topics. While the other
half consists of hands-on sessions and workshops, which give the
participants the excellent chance to gain the practical experience
of techniques and tools.
Security is a key aspect of any modern computer technology. The
security track will remain one of the main topics of the school
also this year. The team of security experts will present a broad
program on security starting with introductory talk on Monday,
which will cover the most common threats to computer security in
the Grid and Cloud Computing environment, followed by the 3-day
workshop. During the workshop the participants with help of a
virtual environment simulating grid sites will learn how to react
on security incidents and perform a forensic analysis after
simulated security incidents in real time.
The program is completed by two social events ('tarte flambee'
evening at the German WLCG Tier-1 center GridKa and the school
dinner in the city center). Detailed information and registration
form can be found at http://gridka-school.scc.kit.edu.
Please distribute this announcement among your colleagues and
friends.
