CERN will be hosting a workshop on the IT requirements for the next generation research infrastructures. This event will cover the IT needs and procurement plans of ESFRI research infrastructures from the larger physics domain that are working together in the CRISP FP7 project (http://www.crisp-fp7.eu/). The event will bring together industrialists from the IT sector and scientists/engineers engaged in IT and data management activities for physics, astronomy and analytical research facilities in Europe, for the purpose of outlining the infrastructure's requirements, procurement plans and building a joint technology roadmap.
