Meeting room: Solid/1.NP/P.23/1 (Solid Sál - 1)

This SIG-NGN meeting is a co-located event with the LHCONE meeting: https://indico.cern.ch/event/1234127/

Theme

"Large science experiments and networking futures"

SIG-NGN will be holding held its 11th meeting as a in person workshop on 20 April 2023. The meeting will be was hosted jointly with the LHCONE meeting in Prague. We will have invited speakers representing some of the largest science communities, including HEP, SKA, DOE presenting their future vision and requirements. As well, networking experts from the NREN community will present presented current and future network capabilities. The workshop will conclude concluded with a discussion group to try and map requirements and capabilities, with a goal to leave both scientists and network engineers better informed about the future. Which is always bright.

  • 09_HL-LHC dataflows: An experiment view - Mario Lassnig (CERN)'25

The LHC experiments are facing a ten-fold increase in throughput requirements for the High-Luminosity upgrade. In addition, the
complexity of dataflows is ever evolving, pushing the boundaries of our infrastructure. In this talk, we highlight important use cases shared by the LHC experiments, and delve deeper into the specific needs of the ATLAS Experiment.

  • 10_Computing Models for
Processing Streaming Data from DOE Science 
  • Processing Streaming Data from DOE Science - Graham Heyes (Jefferson Lab) '25

Graham Heyes is the head of the Scientific Computing Department at Jefferson Lab. He was also the lead of the laboratory’s Data Acquisition Support Group. His current research interest is streaming data acquisition and analysis. This talk will explore what that is, and computing models, both hardware and software, that are appropriate for streaming data.
