27/12/2015 | CERN Openlab Summer Student Programme In Switzerland, 2016 |
Applications are invited for two months CERN summer student programme to work on advanced IT projects. Bachelor or master students having completed (by the summer of attending) at least three years of full-time studies at university level in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics or Physics are eligible to apply. During two full months corresponding to nine weeks (June-September 2016), the CERN openlab summer students will be given a series of IT lectures especially prepared for them by experts at CERN. A report on the work project carried out is to be handed in at the end of the stay. The application deadline is 28 February 2016. |

25/12/2015 | Un Français Remporte le Concours Intel Modern Code Developer |
Le concours pour programmeurs parallèles Intel Modern Code Developer, organisé en collaboration avec le CERN Openlab a réuni quelque 17.000 étudiants issus de plus de 130 universités et écoles à travers le monde. Et c’est un Français, Mathieu Gravey, étudiant en dernière année de l’Ecole des Mines d’Alès, qui l’a remporté. Il a réussi le défi proposé : optimiser le code source d’une application simulant la formation et la croissance des millions de cellules du cortex cérébral afin d’accélérer la recherche en la matière. |

23/12/2015 | For Big Data Transfers LHC Using RapidIO Interface |
CERN recognised it needed to improve overall data acquisition and analysis for the massive volumes of data collected by the experiments on the LHC, the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. The LHC produces millions of collisions every second in each detector, generating approximately one petabyte of data per second. |

23/12/2015 | Scientists May Have Discovered a New Particle in Nature – or it Could Be a Glitch |
Recently, LHC researchers said that “something peculiar” was spotted in two of the machine’s experiments, which may be a new particle, or merely a data glitch. Following the Higgs Boson’s discovery in 2012, the LHC has gotten significant upgrades allowing it to track higher-energy collisions. Currently, the accelerator works with particles around a 17-mile circumference ring of electromagnets at a rate of 13 TeV, or almost twice the energy used when the Higgs Boson was first discovered. |

20/12/2015 | IDT, CERN Speed and Improve Analytics at Large Hadron Collider |
San Jose, CA. Integrated Device Technology (IDT) announced that it has developed with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) a low-latency platform to speed and improve the management of analytics at the organization’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and data center. Developed at IDT’s Open HPAC Lab and built upon the company’s RapidIO technology, the platform marks the first major milestone in the three-year collaboration that IDT and CERN openlab announced in March. |

18/12/2015 | CERN Openlab Summer Student Programme 2016 |
CERN is the birthplace of the World Wide Web and where the Higgs particle was discovered by two of the major LHC experiments, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. The laboratory hosts ground-breaking experiments and is at the heart of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG). This is a place like no other where dizzying IT challenges abound! |
