NeCTAR Workshop on Cloud-based Computational Frameworks

Yesterday on the 22nd of April, together with NeCTAR, we have organised the NeCTAR Workshop on Cloud-based Computational Frameworks. Around 30 people arrived to Sydney to share their knowledge, expertise and also to discuss common problems across the NeCTAR projects.

The workshop was held in an anti-conference way, with the agenda prepared interactively. Discussed topics included:

• Demonstrations, Galaxy + CloudMan
• Galaxy for image analysis
• High Throughput Computing
• Storage
• AAA
• Programming Models + Patterns
• Deployments
• Orchestration

During the workshop, we also had also the Marshmallow Challange to enhance collaborative thinking.
