Oral Presentation
Machine Learning (ML) techniques in the High-Energy Physics (HEP) domain are ubiquitous and will play a significant role also in the upcoming High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade foreseen at CERN: a huge amount of data will be produced by LHC and collected by the experiments, facing challenges at the exascale. Despite ML models are successfully applied in many use-cases (online and offline...

climateprediction.net (CPDN) is a citizen science project that uses the paradigm of volunteer distributed computing via the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) software platform. This platform enables the computation of very large ensembles of climate simulations using the spare resources of the machines of volunteering members of the public. The CPDN project has been...

Since the advent of ICT, information and communication resources become the common wealth and the method dealing with the resource planning and sharing becomes the fundament of the ICT services. For the common wealth planning and sharing, I have carried out the paradigm of Organic Ecology, viz. HyQVIS (Hyper Quality and Value of ICT Systematics), which is inspired by the EU FP3-ESPRIT Project...

Infrastructure Clouds and Virtualisation
Oral Presentation
Currently major cloud providers provide cold storage services as a part of their public IaaS offerings, targeting users who need to store data with relatively low access frequency for long periods. The adoption of cold storage services should be considered in order to reduce the total cost of ownership and the labor of storage management of maintaining large amounts of scientific research data...

Oral Presentation
DESY contributes computing and storage infrastructure to the EGI Federated Cloud that is used by Photon and Neutron Research Infrastructures (PaN RIs) in European H2020 projects, working towards the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). Building on this federated Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), DESY - as a research centre of the Helmholtz association - provides integrated...

Infrastructure Clouds and Virtualisation
Oral Presentation
Nowadays Kubernetes has become a powerful tool to deploy and manage containerized applications.
Modern datacenters need distributed filesystems to provide user applications with access to stored data on a large number of nodes.
The possibility to mount a distributed filesystem and exploit its native application programming interfaces in a Docker container,
combined with the advanced...
