The Science Cloud Summer School targets education and training of graduate students and the fostering of a community around a topic that has increasing interest and relevance: the use of cloud computing technologies in science - including infrastructure-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service. Because cloud computing systems and technologies provide a considerable departure from traditional models and evolve at a rapid pace, this event would provide a basis for students to immerse in a focused, intensive curriculum to learn fundamentals and experiment with these technologies in practice. We will cover topics of interest to students with both application and computer science focus.
Java and HPC experience will be beneficial
The Science Cloud Summer School curriculum will cover both technology (computer science) and use of clouds (informatics, computational science).
Coursework will include:
Lab Sessions will be on commercial systems and FutureGrid.
NOTE: Students are required to provide their own laptops.
