Presentations by Students
Propose presentations (is now open) View the proposals posted so far

Deadline for submission: Saturday, 30 August, 14:00 hours

Students are invited to propose a topic they would be interested in presenting, during a special one-hour session to take place the Tuesday 2nd September (16:00 - 16:55). Those selected will be invited to give a short presentation (in the order of 5 to 10 minutes maximum).

The presentation, in particular if short, would not necessarily require presentation material (such as PowerPoint slides)

The choice of topic is free but should be related in some way to the school. Examples, you may briefly talk about:

  • A scientific / technical topic (such as examples only)

    • HEP, HEP computing, on-line, off-line, , ...

    • HEP Sister disciplines, Computer science, ...

    • Other

  • Your presence here

    • Why are you here, where do you come from, what is your discipline, what are you expecting from the school, how do you think you will be exploiting the knowledge acquired here, ...

Note: if you are presenting in a group, please select one of you to use the login and password and write the names of all members of the group in the description.

Selected proposals and final programme

Tuesday 2nd of September, 16:00

The 5 proposals received before the deadline, Saturday, 30 August, 12:30 having been accepted, the programme is therefore as follows:

All presentations will last 10 minutes maximum (except the first one which is a combination of two proposals, and which will last 20 minutes). A mentor is associated to each presentation to briefly discuss the topic with the presenters and to review their slides.

Version Control System Part 1: Subversion at CERN -> H. Hugosson

I am working at CERN / IT With a Subversion pilot project. Accordingly Subversion was made available for CERN users by June 2008 and in Dec 2008 it will go into production. The plan is that it will replace CVS gradually, and hopefully CVS can go offline by end 2009.

Part2: Distributed Version Control System -> M. Kortelainen

Distributed version control systems (e.g. Git, Mercurial) provide alternative, interesting ways for sharing code when compared to more traditional centralized systems like CVS or Subversion. The aim of the presentation is to give a short introduction to the idea of distributed version control with some examples in Git.

Python (for physicists)

Nowadays physicists have very powerful analysis frameworks (e.g. ROOT) to exploit but they come with a C++/Fortran background. Python let you improve your development efficiency concentrating on quickly building very flexible scripts/softwares without the need to focus too much on the syntax and on the control of low level details. This aims to be a very very short introduction to Python features that could be useful to physicist.

Messaging System for the Grid

A brief insight on Messaging Oriented Middleware and its usefulness in the Grid Monitoring context by presenting the work I am involved at, MSG.

Farming: A day in the life of a Tier1

A brief, light-hearted insight into how an LHC Tier1 is kept running behind the scenes: monitoring, logging, security and communication.
