Are you attending #EGI2024 and are you interested in the future of data-intensive research in High Energy Physics and Radio Astronomy?
Make sure to attend the SPECTRUM session on Wednesday afternoon: Roadmapping for High Energy Physics and Radio Astronomy and learn about the latest developments in data-intensive research infrastructure and how it will enable groundbreaking discoveries in HEP and RA
Key Topics:
- Challenges of Exascale data processing and analysis in frontier research
- Development of a Strategic Research, Innovation and Deployment Agenda (SRIDA)
- Collaboration with a Community of Practice, composed of external experts
- Roadmap for data-intensive scientific collaborations and access to a federated European research infrastructure
While you are at it, make sure to discover our Poster (and maybe give it a vote!)
The poster in text
SPECTRUM aims to deliver a Strategic Research, Innovation and Deployment Agenda (SRIDA) and a Technical Blueprint for a European compute and data continuum.
Vision: data-intensive scientific collaborations have access to a European exabyte-scale research data federation and compute continuum.
Project objectives
- Join effort of research infrastructures and e-infrastructures to address common research and innovation needs towards exabyte-scale computing
- Identify the relevant use cases, related challenges and opportunities
- Understand the landscape and best practices
- Increase collaborative service delivery by e-infrastructures at national, European and international level
- Agree on strategic action paths, specific actions and policy recommendations
Expected results
- SPECTRUMCoP, a community of practice of experts and research infrastructures in High Energy Physics (HEP), Radio Astronomy (RA) and other relevant scientific domains
- Compendium of use cases, related challenges, gaps and requirements
- Compendium of existing approaches, existing services, technical solutions and policies to novel data and compute federation architecture
- Recommendations for a jointly supported corpus of interoperable access policies
- Technical Blueprint of a European compute and data continuum
- A strategy and plan for the implementation of an exascale research data federation and compute continuum for data-intensive science (SRIDA)
Timeline
- May 2024: launch of SPECTRUMCoP and its working groups
- July 2024: launch of the community survey, to collect information from the community
- March 2025: final version of the analysis documents on the landscape, use cases and access policies
- October 2025: draft SRIDA and Technical Blueprint for public consultation
- June 2026: final SRIDA and Technical Blueprint, with a launch event
