Request for SCINet Workshop/Training |
1. Request for FY20 SCINet Workshop/Training
The SCINet initiative is currently accepting proposals for FY 2020 trainings and workshops. These events can span a broad range of activities from establishing/promoting SCINet-related computational working groups to conducting local or national computational trainings. Successful proposals must state how state how the workshop/training will promote the goals of SCINet, including:
- improving high performance computing or big data analytical capabilities of ARS scientists
- increasing use of SCINet resources (e.g., Ceres, cloud computing) by ARS scientists or disciplines not currently part of SCINet
- improving access to ARS data.
At your request, members of the SCINet Virtual Research Support Core (VRSC) can be available remotely or in-person to support your event. As part of the application, we ask that you consider aspects such as the number of attendees, the experience level required to participate, the type of travel authorization that will be required, if the event will be internal to USDA ARS or open to outside collaborators, and a cost estimate.
