Event Details
KNIT 8, the next FABRIC Community Workshop, will take place March 19-21, 2024 in San Diego, CA. KNIT 8 will be hosted by the San Diego Supercomputer Center and co-located with the Fifth National Research Platform (5NRP) Workshop. It will be the first workshop since FABRIC has entered full operations.
The workshop will include small-group, hands-on FABRIC tutorial sessions and advanced training topics. During the event, experimenters across multiple science domains will highlight their use of FABRIC to push forward compelling experiments. The FABRIC team will set the stage for the future of FABRIC and solicit feedback from fellow participants during talks and open mic sessions. Additionally, the team will host an information session for users interested in becoming FABRIC Ambassadors. Attendees will get the chance to explore what FABRIC has to offer, connect with the FABRIC community, and provide feedback to the FABRIC team.
During the week, FABRIC and NRP will co-host two events — a demo night and a social program — giving attendees from both workshops a chance to connect and create pathways for collaboration. Additionally, attendees will have the chance to hear keynotes and plenary discussions built around the interests of both FABRIC users and NRP members.
