Alberto Di Meglio – CERN openlab Collaboration Board Activities

2015 has been a very good year for CERN openlab! Alberto Di Meglio – CERN openlab Collaboration Board 20167

Information Technology Research Areas Alberto Di Meglio – CERN openlab Collaboration Board 2016 Data acquisition and filtering Collecting data Computing platforms, data analysis, simulation Improving processing and code efficiency Data storage architectures Storing and serving data Compute management and provisioning (cloud) Managing resources for processing Data analytics Extracting information Networks and connectivity Connecting resources Medical applications 8

We have successfully started the implementation of many use cases from the original Challenges whitepaper through 18 different projects Membership has grown to 16 members The Research membership tier has been implemented with 2 research laboratories and 3 university with more being discussed Alberto Di Meglio – CERN openlab Collaboration Board 20169

10 Partners Contributors Associates Research

Improved the collaboration with the LHC experiments although we know there is still more work to do We have started new lines of activities with a new focus on innovation, entrepreneurship and technology transfer Started collaborations with other CERN teams like IdeaSquare, the KT office and the CMASG Alberto Di Meglio – CERN openlab Collaboration Board
