The annual NorduGrid conference will be held 9-12 May, 2011, outside Oslo in Sundvolden Hotel.
Conference page: http://indico.hep.lu.se/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=1047
The NorduGrid collaboration is behind the development of the Advanced Resource Connector – the ARC middleware. ARC has been in production for nearly a decade. Currently it also provides services and components to EMI (European Middleware Initiative). This year the conference marks the 10th anniversary of NorduGrid and it will highlight following areas:
Contributions addressing one of the above areas are welcome. The conference will be held on Monday and Tuesday (9-10 May). The Technical Meeting is scheduled on Wednesday and Thursday (11-12 May). In parallel, on Wednesday there will be held a full day ARC user school.
The registration is open until 31 March 2011.
During the period March 21 to 25 a number of scientific conferences in the database area will be held Uppsala University. The main conference called EDBT (14th International Conference on Extending Database Technology) is a highly reputable international database conference joined by the theoretical database ICDT Conference (14th International Conference on Database Theory). The event also will held seven smaller conferences in conjunction with the main conferences. Participation is very international with delegates from 30 countries, of which the largest group coming from the U.S.. EDBT / ICDT has previously been held in the attractive European cities like Venice, Vienna, Cambridge, Avignon, Valencia, Konstanz, Prague, Heraklion, Munich, St. Petersburg and Lausanne. Now it’s Uppsala University, which received the honor of hosting these conferences, giving international publicity and new contacts for the university and its research. The conference website is http://edbticdt2011.it.uu.se/.

From the fundamental collection paradigms known in conceptual modeling – sets, bags, lists, and arrays – it is the array concept which has long been neglected by the database community. However, as sensors are becoming ubiquitous and inexpensive, and as further simulations become large, multi-dimensional arrays are attributed a large share of today’s archive spaces. Geoscientific examples include 1-D sensor time series, 2-D satellite imagery, 3-D x/y/t image time series and x/y/z geology data, and 4-D x/y/z/t climate and ocean simulation data. A similar wealth of array data can be found in space, life, and other sciences. Sparse arrays appear in OLAP. In summary, arrays (by practitioners often referred to as raster data) comprise the natural representation of n-dimensional sensor, image, and statistics data. Typically these data come in massive volumes, with Petabyte – in future Exabyte – sizes for single arrays. Continue reading

Theoretical calculations and computer simulations make a strong field within Chemistry. Many researchers at different departments at UU are involved in such activities. We will start a forum on the general theme of
and try to meet regularly and discuss applications as well as more method-oriented issues within computational/theoretical chemistry.
