Thursday 20th April 2023
SIG-NGN is the Special Interest Group on Next Generation Networks.
This meeting of the 11th meeting of the SIG will be held in Prague, Czech Republic.
Theme
"Large science experiments and networking futures"
SIG-NGN will be holding its 11th meeting as a in person workshop on 20 April 2023. The meeting will be hosted jointly with the LHCONE meeting in Prague. We will have invited speakers representing some of the largest science communities, including HEP, SKA, DOE presenting their future vision and requirements. As well, networking experts from the NREN community will present current and future network capabilities. The workshop will conclude with a discussion group to try and map requirements and capabilities, with a goal to leave both scientists and network engineers better informed about the future. Which is always bright.

| 14:00 - 15:00 ('60) | Big science user requirements II Host: Rudolf Vohnout (CESNET)
Graham Heyes is the head of the Scientific Computing Department at Jefferson Lab. He was also the lead of the laboratory’s Data Acquisition Support Group. His current research interest is streaming data acquisition and analysis. This talk will explore what that is, and computing models, both hardware and software, that are appropriate for streaming data.
DOE ASCR has been championing the Integrate Research Infrastructure initiative, which is to enable highly coordinated, collaborative research and integrating capabilities across DOE’s
