Project dissemination activities
UKQCD HackLatt 2005 Workshop
On 13th-14th April 2005, the UKQCD collaboration and QCDgrid project organised a workshop entitled UKQCD HackLatt 2005. This workshop brought together particle physicists and software developers from across the UK and beyond, with the aim of disseminating information and training on the powerful and diverse computational resources that are available within the UK, including a half-day devoted to the usage and administration of the QCDgrid software suite.
A post-workshop report was produced that summarises the organisation, content, and outputs of the workshop:
- M.G. Beckett and Z. Srooczynski, UKQCD HackLatt 2005 Final Report (May 2005) [PDF].
QCDgrid System Administration Training Course 2006
On Thursday 23rd March 2006, the UKQCD collaboration delivered a workshop entitled QCDgrid System Administration Workshop 2006. This workshop brought together system administrators and software developers from across the UK academic community and beyond, with the intention of providing training on the deployment, maintenance and development of QCDgrid-powered services.
A post-workshop report was produced that summarises the organisation, content, and outputs of the event:
- M.G. Beckett and J. Hein, QCDgrid System Administration Training 2006 - Final Report (March 2006) [PDF].
