Call For Papers - CFP

Analysis and simulation applications involved in these experiments are deployed on a variety of architectures and usually demand high computational and storage capacities.

Different solutions ranging from distributed computing (e.g. GRID, CLOUD, P2P, etc.) to recently GPUs attempt to address efficient scenario for the Astroparticle & HEP community. In particular, job-scheduling optimization in distributed environments is an active research field originated from previously worldwide successful HEP projects (ALICE, Pierre Auger observatory, etc.) and wil be implemented in future Space and on-ground APP projects as the JEM-EUSO Space Mission.

The main aim of this workshop is to bring researchers from Physics, Computer Science, developers and, in general, from the AstroParticle and High Energy Physics fields, to identify and explore open issues regarding efficient solutions for HEP advanced computing. Also we foster the proposal of solutions that are being developed for each experiment applications. The APPAC workshop will provide a forum for free exchange of ideas.

We plan to have a variety of presentations where applications, middleware and computing models for a few experiments are explained and discussed to give ideas for the next generations of high-energy physics analysis software being developed in the future.
