Subject: Comp Sci and Stats of CMB Data Analysis, France, Sep 2012
We would like to bring to your attention an interdisciplinary workshop
"Big Bang, Big Data, Big Computers" (Big3) on the computer science and
statistics of contemporary Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data
analysis, to be held in Paris from Sept 19-21, 2012 in the
AstroParticule et Cosmologie (APC) Laboratory at the Paris Rive Gauche
Campus of the Université Paris Diderot.
The main idea of the workshop is to bring together people from
different walks of science relevant, or potentially relevant, to CMB
data analysis. The latter is an extremely active and timely area of
observational cosmology, which over the years has contributed
enormously to our understanding of the Universe, and which constantly
poses novel, exciting challenges in diverse areas of the scientific
research, and for which an interdisciplinary approach will be an
extremely fruitful — if not the only — way forward.

A REGISTRATION and an ABSTRACT SUBMISSION of the contributed talks is
now open (till July 15, 2012). We invite contributions from all areas
of science of interest. Check the website for more details. There is
no conference fee.
