Software & Computing Round Table

The topic of the Software & Computing Round Table in April will be “Data on the Network.”

On Tuesday, April 6 at 11 a.m. (EDT) / 5:00 p.m. (CET), we will explore some of the state of the art techniques for accessing large scientific data sets across the wide area network (WAN), from the perspective of both the storage and network providers, and how the developing technology will make it easier for users to get to their data.

• Andrew Hanushevsky (SLAC) will start off with an overview of "XRootD 5.x: Network Oriented Features”.
• Chin Guok (ESnet) will focus on the network itself in "Building a Data Infrastructure - A WAN Provider's Perspective”.
• Alastair Dewhurst (STFC-UK) will tell us about the growing use of object storage in "Building a Data Infrastructure on Top of S3”.

Brookhaven National Laboratory, the HEP Software Foundation, and Jefferson Lab are organizing the Software & Computing Round Table to foster the interplay of computing and science. The monthly round table forum aims for knowledge transfer and to encourage common projects within our scientific community.
