Dear Colleagues,

we would like to invite you to participate on the workshop entitled 
Building an Advanced Center for Data and Computing for ESSthat will take 
place on September 17 and 18, 2012 at The Niels Bohr International 
Academy in Copenhagen. There is no charge for participation. Deadline 
for registration is August 31st.

The list of invited speakers include:

*Dimitri Argyriou* - European Spallation Source, Sweden
*Michael Marek Koza*- Institut Laue Langevin, France
*Sylvia McLain*- Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, 
United Kingdom
*Abbas Ourmazd*- University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, USA
*AJ (Timmy) Ramirez-Cuesta*- ISIS Facility, United Kingdom
*Thomas Holm Rod*- Niels Bohr Institutet, Denmark
*Jeremy C. Smith*- Center for Molecular Biophysics, Oak Ridge, USA
*Ilpo Vattulainen*- Tampere University of Technology, Finland
*Brian Vinter*- Niels Bohr Institutet, Denmark

This workshop brings together experts from different fields with the 
intent in reviewing and discussing the development of a theoretical and 
computational modeling infrastructure that is relevant to the diverse 
scientific community that will use ESS. Our aim is to use this workshop 
as an input to our planning so that once the first experiments are made, 
ESS and its users are prepared to harness the most out of the scientific 
potential of their data.

The high intensity spallation neutron source ESS is well set to start 
construction in 2013 and to deliver first neutrons in 2019. After about 
20 years of discussions, the determination of the user community and 
those working in national and international neutron laboratories in 
Europe is going to turn the project into reality!

Now it is time to start getting ready to harness the scientific 
potential of ESS. In recent years it has been realized that the 
combination of simulations of physical systems together with neutron 
scattering data, is an immensely powerful in various key areas of modern 
research; the glass transition in soft matter, the relaxation phenomena 
in biomolecules, high temperature superconductivity, chemistry of 
concrete, protein dynamics and function, to name a few examples.

We hope to come out of the meeting with innovative and enthusiastic 
ideas leading to new and successful collaborations.
