SYS-CON Events announced today that Paul Parsons, Founder and CTO for The Server Labs, will be presenting at the upcoming Cloud Computing Expo Europe (www.cloudexpo-europe.com) May 18-19, 2009, in Prague, Czech Republic, the first industry-leading international Cloud Computing event outside the USA.
His session will be entitled "Cloud Science: Astrometric Processing in Amazon EC2/S3."
Paul Parsons is Founder & CTO of The Server Labs. He has over 20 years of experience in software development and was senior software engineer in the European Space Agency (ESA). After ESA, he worked in the Deutsche Boerse, Commerzbank and DG Bank, designing and implementing real time distributed systems. Since then he has been an architect in different industries, designing high performance solutions.

Cloud Science: Astrometric Processing in Amazon EC2/S3
With the maturing of cloud computing, it is now feasible to run scientific applications in the cloud. Data storage and high performance computing resources are fundamental for scientific applications. Outsourcing these services leverages scalability, flexibility, high availability at lower prices compared with traditional in-house data processing. This article evaluates Amazon's EC2/S3 suitability for this scenario, by running a distributed astrometric process developed for the European Space Agency's Gaia mission in Amazon EC2. The aim is to demonstrate how cloud computing systems can be a cost-effective solution for HPC applications.
