The Fifth Thematic School of Computing (tCSC 2017) takes place this year in Split, Croatia, from 4-10 June 2017. The theme is "Efficient Parallel Processing of Future Scientific Data", looking at:
- Future scientific data processing: challenges in HEP and other sciences, commonalities and differences.
- The prime role of software in modern big science.
- Parallelism and asynchronism: computation and I/O.
- Evolution of hardware and platforms, consequences on data analysis procedures and tools.
The School is open to postgraduate students and research workers with a few years' experience in elementary particle physics, computing, engineering or related fields. All applicants are welcome, including former and future CSC participants in the main summer school.
Registration will close on 5 March, and participation is limited to 24 students. To register, please go to: https://indico.cern.ch/e/tCSC-2017.
About:
The Thematic Schools are part of the annual series of CERN Schools of Computing, to promote advanced learning and knowledge exchange in scientific computing among young scientists and engineers involved in particle physics or other sciences.
They are shorter and more focused than the main Summer CERN School of Computing, but still maintain the same guiding principles: Academic dimension on advanced topics; theory and practice; networking and socialization.
Applications will be accepted until Sunday 5 March 2017.
