16th International workshop on Advanced Computing and Analysis Techniques in physics research (ACAT)

The ACAT workshop series, formerly known as AIHENP (Artificial Intelligence in High Energy and Nuclear Physics), was created back in 1990. Its main purpose is to gather three different communities: experimental and theoretical researchers as well as computer scientists to critically analyze past achievements and to propose new or advanced techniques to building better computing tools to boost scientific research, in particular in physics.

In the past, it has established bridges between physics and computer science research, facilitating advances in our understanding of the Universe at its smallest and largest scales. With the Large Hadron Collider, FAIR, eRHIC, EIC, the future International Linear Collider and the many astronomy and astrophysics experiments collecting larger and larger amounts of data, deep communication and cooperation are needed now more than ever.

The 16th edition of ACAT will explore the boundaries of computing system architectures, data analysis algorithmics, automatic calculations as well as theoretical calculation technologies. It will create a forum for confronting and exchanging ideas among these fields and will explore and promote new approaches in computing technologies for scientific research.

Although mainly focusing on high-energy physics, talks related to nuclear physics, astrophysics, laser and condensed matter physics, earth physics, biophysics, and others, are most welcome.
