Big Data & Open Data
Brussels, 7-8 May 2014
The ERF-AISBL in collaboration with Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste, is planning to address the big data and open data issues by organizing a first workshop focused on the common problems that all data producing large scale research facilities are facing and will face in the years to come, and the ways to elaborate solutions. The purpose of the workshop is also to offer opportunities for discussions on specific proposals to be submitted to the Horizon 2020 program. The speakers are high profile experts in this field. We expect to attract over 100 highly concerned scientists and facility managers. All the sessions will be plenary.

Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste is a multidisciplinary international center of excellence, specialized in generating high quality synchrotron and free-electron laser light and applying it in materials science. The main assets of the research centre are two advanced light sources, the electron storage ring Elettra and the free-electron laser (FEL) FERMI, continuously (H24) operated supplying light of the selected "colour" and quality to more than 30 experimental stations on 32 beamlines. |
 |
The ERF-AISBL Association has the not-for-profit purpose to promote the cooperation and the projects between european-level research infrastructures which are open, at international level, to external researchers. These infrastructures include national infrastructures as wel as european networks and consortia of research infrastructures. |
