February 2-9, 2011
Caltech, Keith Spalding Building, 4th Floor
Pasadena, CA
The main aim of this workshop was to provide new users with the tools and know-how to perform their own data analysis at home, or via remote access to NHSC compute machines that would soon be provided to help with large-scale computing needs. We concentrated on providing an overview of the Herschel Interactive Processing Environment (HIPE) through the use of talks and demos. The workshop included some hands-on sessions in which the participants ran pipeline scripts on test data provided.
