In 2023, the GlobalNOC at Indiana University became the Virtual Network Operations Center ( VNOC ) for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory project. Part of the GlobalNOC's role in the project was to provide a mechanism allowing for the submission and aggregation of alerts from the network providers involved in the project. To meet this end, an SDK was created allowing the network providers to easily develop agent software capable of submitting alerts on their respective networks to the GlobalNOC's alert aggregation software, AlertMon. This talk will touch on the Vera C. Rubin Observatory project, the GlobalNOC's role in the project as the VNOC, the components of the AlertMon Agent SDK, and how GlobalNOC partners can leverage this SDK for their own use cases.
A conversation with the operational support team for the Mizzou Quantum Innovation Center (QIC). The QIC offers opportunities for access to advanced IBM quantum computing through partnerships with the University of Missouri. Opportunities vary for academic and non-academic collaborators. Join us if you are affiliated with a university or research organization and would like to know more about partnering for quantum computing resources.

Many researchers, particularly graduate students, lack the skills needed to do computational, data-intensive research. These skills are often not included as a part of basic research training in many disciplines. Carpentries workshops can help fill this need by teaching foundational coding and data science skills to researchers, employing openly available lessons and ‘code with me’ pedagogy. This session will present a case study in how, with the support of the Great Plains Network’s Carpentries Instructors Mentoring, Kansas State University has established a cross-disciplinary community of interest to offer Carpentries Workshops to researchers on campus and with USDA partners.
Come and hear from Ames National Laboratory. They will present their CMS center work on "Accelerating the discovery and design of advanced functional materials using AI/ML and exascale computing." There will be poster talks and handouts from this session highlighting their research in Thrusts 1 & 2 in this center.
