Pangalactic BOINC Workshop 2020: 7th-10th of September, Marburg/Germay

This year's Pangalactic BOINC Workshop 2020 will be held on 7th-10th of September at "Deutscher Sprachatlas" in the medieval city of Marburg/Germany located approx. 100 km north of Frankfurt airport to which it is well-connected by public trains (or e.g. FLIXBUS.)

To the best of our knowledge, it will be the first BOINC workshop organized by BOINC volunteers and is hosted by the Physics Department of the Philipps-University of Marburg (the first still operating protestant university in the world, founded in 1527).

In addition to inviting the usual BOINC community, we would like to place one focus of this year's BOINC workshop on also inviting scientists for presentations whose research requires significant compute
ressources but who do not yet use the distributed computing approach.
So, the idea is to reach out to new people to lay the foundations for new future BOINC-based projects. Since there will be so many BOINC experts around, newcomers should find it very convenient to quickly gather the required information and practical help to rapidly implement their project idea.
Moreover, we warmly welcome contributions from the volunteers (who might also contact us to take over a role in the BOINC workshop organization, chairing sessions, etc.).

Habe im BOINC Network (ab 2'50'') gehört, dass der Workshop ausfällt. Stimmt das?
Lustig, man hört einem Amerikaner und einem Australier zu, wie sie sich über Marburg und Rechenkraft e.V. unterhalten.

Ja, die Uni hat alle Veranstaltungen in ihren Räumen bis Ende September 2020 streichen lassen.
Habe das auch auf der BOINC Workshop Wikiseite mitgeteilt.
