but note there are technical problems with the feed, and some of the talks will be uploaded later.
Today’s sessions emphasized “Astronomy Applications.” Tara Murphy gave an excellent summary on “Astroinformatics challenges for next generation radio transients surveys.” Her talk led to a vigorous discussion on the need for a powerful cross-match engine to support identification of newly discovered radio sources. Following on from that, Daniela Huppenkothen spoke about new methods for understanding transient variability. Giuseppe Longo gave a fine introduction to the application of data mining techniques. Alex Szalay gave an overview of the hardware, software and data management challenges inherent in data intensive astrophysics. Topics included were turbulence modeling, cosmology simulations, and dark matter simulations.
