Infrastructual Clouds and Virtualisation - II
- Tomoaki Nakamura (KEK)
Description
This track will focus on the development of cloud infrastructures and on the use of cloud computing and virtualization technologies in large-scale (distributed) computing environments in science and technology. We solicit papers describing underlying virtualization and "cloud" technology including integration of accelerators and support for specific needs of AI/ML and DNN, scientific applications and case studies related to using such technology in large scale infrastructure as well as solutions overcoming challenges and leveraging opportunities in this setting. Of particular interest are results exploring the usability of virtualization and infrastructure clouds from the perspective of machine learning and other scientific applications, the performance, reliability and fault-tolerance of solutions used, and data management issues. Papers dealing with the cost, price, and cloud markets, with security and privacy, as well as portability and standards, are also most welcome.
The O-CEI project is a forward-thinking initiative aimed at addressing key challenges in the European supply chain by creating an open and cross-sector Cloud Edge DOT (CEI) continuum platform. O-CEI uses and upgrades technological innovations from previous successful projects (i.e. existing cloud technology spectrum, including meta-operating systems, cognitive cloud technologies, and...
The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) operates as both a world-leading provider of global numerical weather predictions and a major research organization advancing Earth system science.
Within its mission to deliver reliable data, forecasts, and insights for the benefit of society, ECMWF is actively involved in several European initiatives such as...
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a 20 kton liquid scintillator detector located in South China. Its construction as completed on November 2024. JUNO aims at an unprecedented 3% energy resolution at 1 MeV to determine neutrino mass ordering and study oscillation phenomena with high precision.
To support this ambitious physics program, JUNO relies on a Distributed...
