Events, February 2013, ACAT, IHEP, workshop

The 15h International Workshop on Advanced Computing and Analysis Techniques in Physics Research [ACAT 2013] will be held in Beijing, China, on 16-21 May 2013. The Institute of High Energy Physics [IHEP] will host the workshop.

This workshop is the latest of a series created in 1990. Its main purpose is to bring together researchers working in the field of computing. It has established bridges between physics and computer science research, facilitating the advances in the understanding of the Universe at its smallest and largest scales.

The workshop covers three main topics: computing technology for physics research; data analysis- algorithms and tools; and computations in theoretical physics: techniques and methods.

Registrations are open until 15 March 2013. All practical information can be found in the ACAT 2013 website.
