Bioclusters 2004 Workshop
March 30, 2004
Hynes Convention Center
Boston, Mass., USA
Organized by several members of the bioclusters[at]bioinformatics.org mailing list, the Bioclusters 2004 Workshop is a networking and educational forum for people involved in all aspects of cluster and grid computing within the life sciences.
The motivation for organizers of this event was the cancellation of the O'Reilly Bioinformatics Technology Conference series and the general lack of forums for researchers and professionals involved with the applied use of high performance IT and distributed computing techniques in the life sciences.
The primary focus of the workshop will be technical presentations from experienced IT professionals and scientific researchers discussing real world systems, solutions, use-cases and best practices.
This event is being held onsite at the Hynes Convention Center on the first day of the larger 2004 Bio-IT World Conference+Expo. BioIT-World Magazine is generously providing space and logistical support for the meeting and workshop attendees will have access to the expo floor and keynote addresses. Registration & fees will be finalized in short order.
Presentations will be broken down among a few general content areas:
1. Researcher, Application & End user Issues
2. Builder, Scaling & Integration Issues
3. Future Directions
The organizing committee is actively soliciting presentation proposals from members of the life science and technical computing communities. Interested parties should contact the committee at bioclusters04[at]open-bio.org.
