Welcome to PEARC20! PEARC20’s theme is “Catch the Wave.” This year’s theme embodies the spirit of the community’s drive to stay on pace and in front of all the new waves in technology, analytics, and a globally connected and diverse workforce. We look forward to this year’s PEARC20 virtual meeting, where we can share scientific discovery and craft the future infrastructure.
The conference will be held in Pacific Time (PT) and the times listed below are in Pacific Time.
The connection information for all PEARC20 workshops, tutorials, plenaries, track presentations, BOFs, Posters, Visualization Showcase, and other affiliated events, are in the PEARC20 virtual conference platform, Brella. If you have issues joining Brella, please email pearcinfo@googlegroups.com.
Data transfers are a critical part of nearly every modern scientific workflow. The data sizes may range from small scripts written on a personal laptop to massive results generated by specialized scientific instruments. The transfer distances may span multiple networks across continents or simply across the street to another building. Regardless of the details, the efficiency of the workflow is inherently tied to the efficiency of the data transfer. The goal of this BoF is to open a dialog among all the stakeholders in these transfers: researchers, system administrators, network engineers, and other cyberinfrastructure personnel. Staff members of the XSEDE Data Transfer Services team will facilitate discussions about identifying and reporting data transfer issues, tools and services available to the community, and addressing data transfer performance issues.
