Reminder: OSG All-Hands Meeting Registration is now open! Registration Closes Feb 19!
REMINDER: Registration closes in just 25 days!
OSG All Hands Meeting 2017 - San Diego Supercomputer Center - University
of California San Diego
Registration for the All-Hands Meeting of the Open Science Grid hosted by
the San Diego Supercomputer Center (http://www.sdsc.edu/), March 6-9,
2017, La Jolla, CA
Topics to be discussed will include:
* Cyberinfrastructure partnerships: university research computing
HPC centers, XSEDE XD providers, DOE laboratories, NSF Large Facility
computing organizations and commercial cloud providers. Technologies,
strategies, ideas, and discussions on how OSG can foster partnerships
across the widest possible range of CI.
* How high throughput computing accelerates research, and how OSG can help
users scale up.
* Usability challenges and solutions for distributed high throughput
computing applications.
* Connecting virtual organizations, campus researchers and XSEDE users to
the OSG: command line, science gateways, and workflow frameworks.
* Training and education workshops.
* Serving more of the "long tail" of science with high throughput parallel
computing: incorporating multi-core, GPU and virtual cluster resources
into science workflows using shared and allocated distributed
infrastructure.
* Advanced network analytics services for national Science DMZ
infrastructure.
As has been the custom, the 2017 OSG AHM will be co-located with the U.S.
Large Hadron Collider (LHC at CERN) computing facility meetings.
Logistical information, registration and agenda are available at
https://www.opensciencegrid.org/AHM2017 (This will redirect to the

- gratia-probe 1.17.2: Improved ability to report local jobs to OSG or not
- Updated to XRootD 4.5.0
- Updated gridftp-hdfs to enable ordered data
- osg-configure 1.5.4: Further updates to support ATLAS AGIS
- Ensure HTCondor-CE gratia probe is installed when installing osg-ce-bosco
- Updated to VOMS 2.0.14
- Completed conversion of packages to use systemd-tmpfiles on EL 7
Changes to the Upcoming Repository include:
- Updated to HTCondor 8.5.8*
- Added Singularity (version 2.2) as a new, preview technology
- Updated to frontier-squid 3.5.23-3.1, a technology preview of version 3
