Astronomy and astrophysical large experiments and e-infrastructure - new frontiers
- Giuliano Taffoni (INAF)
Description
This workshop aims at strengthen the relation between the Astronomical and Astrophysical (A&A) community, mainly focused on the large experiments that will need of very powerful e-Infrastructures, and the ICT researcher that are proposing innovative technologies. This meeting will help researcher and developers from the different fields to meet and discuss on the next future answer that the e-infrastructure can provide.

The EUCLID project is a medium-class mission of the ESA Cosmic Vision program. Its main objective is to map the geometry of the dark universe.
Euclid will generate 26 PB of data for each full data release (including external data from ground observations) but reprocessing needs and simulations will increase it to almost 200 PB. To handle this volume of data, the Euclid Science Ground Segment...

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) - a proposed array of many tens of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes - will be the next-generation instrument in the field of very high energy gamma-ray astronomy. CTA will operate as an open observatory providing data products and analysis tools to the entire scientific community. An average data stream of about 1 GB/s for approximately 2000 hours of...

CANFAR is an integrated cloud ecosystem that supports the entire data life-cycle from ingestion of observatory data to publication of final data products. It supports curation and long-term preservation of data. It provides user-managed storage resources and access to batch cloud processing and interactive and persistent virtual machines to support science use and service support....
