"We are excited and pleased that so many leading researchers and research computing experts will be presenting at GlobusWorld this year," said Ian Foster, Globus co-founder and director of Argonne National Laboratory's new Data Science and Learning Division. "By sharing their experiences in using, administering, and developing with Globus, they are helping their peers in the community learn new and enhanced ways to optimize research data management."

GlobusWorld brings together researchers, systems administrators, developers and IT leaders from top computing centers, labs and universities around the world. The event is designed to provide new insights into managing research data and storage at scale, automating data management, and building cutting-edge applications, portals, gateways, and services.

The program includes a day of hands-on tutorials on topics such as automating research data workflows, leveraging the Globus platform in web applications, best practices for data sharing, data publication and discovery, and using Jupyter with Globus for interactive data science. In addition, as a new way to engage the community, Globus team experts will hold "Office Hours" so participants can have their questions answered in an informal, personalized forum.

GlobusWorld 2018 is supported by Western Digital (Premier sponsor); Spectra Logic, CloudyCluster, and USI Corporation (Gold sponsors); and HPCWire (media partner).
