HUBbub2010, a workshop for current and potential users of the HUBzero Platform for Scientific Computing, will unveil an open source release of HUBzero's core software. Developed by Purdue University HUBzero (hubzero.org) is a unique platform for creating powerful Web sites supporting research, education and collaboration in science, engineering and other fields.The HUBzero platform powers nanoHUB.org and 20 other sites already, delivering hundreds of research tools and seminars to nearly a half million users each year. HUBzero is supported by a consortium of universities including Purdue, Indiana, Clemson and Wisconsin.
The two-day workshop for the HUBzero user community will take place April 13-14 at the IUPUI University Place Conference Center, 850 West Michigan St., Indianapolis, Ind.
For more information and to register, go to http://hubzero.org/hubbub2010. Space is limited.
Breakout sessions at the event will explain how HUBzero enables a wide spectrum of projects in science and engineering, health care research, social science and education while satisfying NSF and other grant funder cyberinfrastructure requirements in the bargain. The sessions will include hands-on tutorials covering:
* Setting up your own hub using HUBzero's new open source software.
* Creating and publishing computational research tools on your hub, along with connecting your tools to supercomputing clusters and other grid resources while largely avoiding the complexities of grid computing.
* Adding new capabilities to the platform with PHP/Web programming.
The registration fee includes all sessions, an opening reception the evening of April 12, continental breakfast and lunch April 13 and 14, and dinner on April 13.
