Dome Open Users Platform Event: where science and SME's meet
| Submitter: | Albert-Jan Boonstra |
| Description: | Today, ASTRON is hosting a special Dome event where a select group of entrepreneurs and knowledge institutes will challenge the Dome team to help them overcome technological restraints, thus paving the road for new and interesting business opportunities though collaborative R&D. Dome is the research project in which ASTRON and IBM have joined forces to create new technology in order to handle the huge amounts of data that will be generated by the Square Kilometre Array (SKA). During this afternoon's event, the Van de Hulst auditorium is the setting for plenary sessions. You may also spot some interactive sessions in the Muller, JIVE, Hooghoudt and former control room. After lunch, there will first be an update on novel technologies and new computing approaches that are being developed within DOME. For more information on the Dome research streams, please click here http://www.dome-exascale.nl/oupe2014/index.php This plenary session will be followed by some interactive subsessions. We have challenged a number of SME's to analyse where the opportunities lie that may enhance their business and could benefit our economy as a whole. We are curious to see what IT-related constraints they are facing when it comes to developing products and services, and which of those the Dome team could help solve. If there is a viable match with one or more of the Dome research streams, the aim would be to proceed with R&D on a collaborative basis. |
