Objective of the Project |
The main goal of the proposed project was to facilitate the transfer of knowledge in the field of nuclear and high energy physics between two leading research institutes. In the project, young researchers acquired knowledge of current state-of-the-art statistical and computing methods, both theoretical and practical, which are applied in the analyses of particle physics experiments. The field of high energy particle physics, as it is carried out in experiments at Brookhaven National Laboratory and CERN, pushes the boundaries of computing and statistical data mining. The scale of these activities, defined by the hundreds of petabytes of data, requires the utilization of large distributing computing infrastructures and the efficient use of available resources. The knowledge of modern and efficient techniques is paramount for being able to successfully carry out this data intensive research. Moreover, the targeted skills are highly sought after in applied science and industry. |
