The workshop will consist of three days of plenary talks, working group and discussion sessions, where the main objectives are: to review the physics objectives of data persistency in HEP; to exchange information on the analysis model used by HEP experiments; to address the hardware and software persistency issue; to review the funding programs and other existing international initiatives; and to converge to a common set of recommendations for future experiments. We are working towards having a final report ready in time for Lepton Photon 2009.
There is a registration fee of $55 for the Workshop and a separate fee of $30 for the social event.
The social event will be held at the Computer History museum. (http://www.computerhistory.org) There will be a tour plus dinner. Please sign up for this by the first day of the workshop.
