The third National Grid Service user forum is meeting to bring together
existing and potential NGS users and providers, to share experiences,
understand future plans and provide an opportunity to influence the
development of the NGS provision through the next few years. With users
from a diverse range of academic disciplines and a growing number of
resource providers, the NGS is constantly looking towards the future to
better understand the service requirements of users and the applications
required.
The event to be held in Oxford will also mark the official launch of the
new NGS-2 Compute and Storage Clusters. An open drop-in session on the
afternoon of the 19th June will enable users to informally speak to
technical representatives from the NGS.
Collocated with this user forum will be a NGS training day on the 20th
June. This training day gives a practically-oriented introduction to the
services that have recently been deployed by the NGS.
If you are interested in attending either of these events, please
register at
http://www.ngs.ac.uk/event.html where a full agenda for both
days is also available. Please note that registration closes on the
13th of June.
