ARCHIVED: What is the XSEDE ECSS symposium?

This content has been archived, and is no longer maintained by Indiana University. Information here may no longer be accurate, and links may no longer be available or reliable.

The Extended Collaborative Support Service (ECSS) symposium is a series of webinars focused primarily on sharing the technical expertise ECSS staff have gained from supporting Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) research projects.

Each session comprises two 30-minute presentations, with topics covering techniques used to successfully address a wide range of challenging computational research issues. Tutorials on emerging technologies are offered periodically, as well. Each 30-minute presentation is followed by a brief question and answer period.

Webinars are offered on the third Tuesday of each month at 1pm (Eastern) and are open to the public. For coordinates and instructions for connecting, see the ECSS Symposium page on the XSEDE website.

Note: The web conference site (AT Conference) provides video only. To hear audio, you must call into the dial-in number provided on the ECSS Symposium page. Because attendance may be large, each webinar employs a moderator, and all incoming phone lines are muted. To ask a question, send a chat message to the Q&A group (after logging into the web conference).

Upcoming webinars are posted as Training events on the User News page on the XSEDE User Portal. To be notified of upcoming ECSS symposiums via email or RSS feed, subscribe (XSEDE-wide login required) to the User News Training category.

Each webinar is recorded; summaries and slides from past webinars are accessible from the ECSS Symposium page.
