2013 IEEE Nuclear
Science Symposium - Medical Imaging Conference
Seoul, Korea, 27 October - 2 November 2013
Software and Computing for
Experiments
The IEEE
Nuclear Science Symposium includes a track dedicated to Software and Computing.
This topic was first introduced in the scientific program of the
conference in 2003; since then, it has grown into one of the largest
conference areas. Its widely multi-disciplinary character provides an ideal
venue where "hardware meets software", which promotes the exchange of
information and discussions across different experimental areas within the scope
of NSS.
The scientific program of this track addresses all the aspects of
software design, development and application in the
experimental domains pertinent to NSS. Contributions are welcome on the subjects
listed below and more... beyond the imagination of future science!
Software Developments
-
Simulation: Monte Carlo and deterministic methods
- Data Analysis: tools, algorithms and methods
- Detector Modeling
- Event Generators
- Mathematical methods and statistics for experimental physics and
engineering
- Core software tools: systems, architectures, methods, algorithms and
experience of operation
- Computing frameworks for experiments, accelerators and other
large-scale
systems
- Distributed, grid and cloud computing
Experimental Applications
- Simulation for detector design and optimization
- Data reconstruction and analysis in experiments
- Computational methods and tools for radiotherapy, radiation
protection and biological effects of radiation
- Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics, Astrophysics and
Space Science, Photon Science, Medical Physics, Radiation Protection,
Homeland Security and other experimental domains
- Computing challenges in novel domains, such as nanodosimetry, radiobiology and
nanotechnology
- Industrial applications
Sessions
The oral sessions will include keynote talks on topics of wide
interest and regular talks on recent research developments and results.
Poster sessions will provide further opportunities for presentation and
interaction among the participants.Related
