SUMMARY:Reading 2050: Future Health and Quality of Life in Reading
DESCRIPTION:Please join Dr William Bird from Intelligent Health\, for a lecture: ‘Future Health and Quality of Life in Reading’ \nThe lecture is part of the ‘People and Lifestyle’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nAdmission to the lecture is free. \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated earlier this year\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \nhttps://livingreading.co.uk/publications-events

SUMMARY:RESCHEDULED: Silent movie prologues and Go West screening
DESCRIPTION:The performance of the Silent Movie Prologues from Brazil and the screening of Go West (Keaton\, 1925) on Friday 7 December were cancelled because of the campus closure. \nWe’re pleased to announce that the performance and screening are rescheduled for Monday 10th December and we are waiving admission (and refunding those who had booked tickets for Friday). \nWe look forward to seeing you at the Minghella Studios. Doors open at 7pm. \nJoin us at the Minghella Studios for the staging of two silent movie prologues together with a screening of the films they were designed to accompany: Buster Keaton’s wonderful comedy feature Go West (US\, 1925) and the surviving fragment of another extraordinary 1920s film\, Beggar on Horseback (US\, 1925). \nThe two prologues\, “The Stylised Cowboy” and “Doing it the Pirandello Way…”\, were originally created to accompany the presentation of the films in Rio de Janeiro\, in 1926. They combine popular theatrical traditions\, an interest in early 20th Century modernism and a carnivalesque approach to Hollywood movies. As part of the AHRC/FAPESP-funded IntermIdia project\, they are restaged in the Minghella Studios by students on the part 3 module Ensemble Practice\, who have also created other atmospheric experiences to set the scene for the evening. Doors open at 7pm. \nYou can read more about the project here.

SUMMARY:Research Impact (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:Researcher Development Programme – Communications Training Sessions \nThis session is aimed at all research staff within all disciplines. It will introduce the topic of Research Impact\, the good that our research has on the world outside academia\, and outline its importance and the steps that can be taken to achieve it. The Research Impact Team will work with you to understand the impact that your research could have\, the stakeholders that would be interested in your work (including organisations\, policy makers and the general public) and how to approach them and finally how to plan to gather evidence to support impact claims. Pathways to Impact (part of RCUK grant applications) will also be covered. This session will be tailored to suit academics with developed\, developing or potential research impact. \nTo book your place on this session\, please contact peopledevelopment@reading.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Workshop on Storage Challenges in the UK
DESCRIPTION:The Special Interest Group of High-Performance I/O in the UK (SIG IO UK) organizes this workshop to bring together: users of data-intensive workloads\, storage vendors\, and system and middleware developers\, in order to identify common challenges\, to develop strategies for research and funding but also product development. \nThe workshop series generally covers all aspects of data access and management including I/O workflow handling\, parallel file systems\, middleware\, tuning\, performance monitoring\, novel interfaces\, storage technology\, and data center perspectives. The workshop is primarily organized as a series of talks and group discussion slots. \nThis particular workshop focuses on exchanging information about challenges and the ongoing efforts to overcome them aiming to bring forward RD&E and the use of storage systems (in the UK). Users present their challenges faced dealing with I/O and ongoing RD&E to overcome them. Vendor talks focus on technical solutions for certain challenges accompanied by use cases demonstrating the benefit. \nWe welcome the submission of talks and short papers (in LaTeX article format) that summarize the challenges and ongoing effort in different institutions that we will lead to a joint paper submitted to Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science as part of the ISC-HPC proceedings. \nJean-Thomas Acquaviva successively worked for Intel\, the University of Versailles and the French Atomic Commission (CEA). He participated to the creation of their joint laboratory the Exascale Research Centre\, where he led the Performance Evaluation Team. Today he’s actively contributing the development of the DDN Storage Advanced Technology Centre in France. Jean-Thomas has hands-on experience in the HPC ecosystem\, with positions in start-up\, large research public institutions\, SME or global organizations. He has been a direct contributor to the ETP4PH Strategic Research Agenda and he’s chairing two conferences on high performance storage. \nJulian Kunkel is a Lecturer at the Computer Science Department at the University of Reading. He manages several research projects revolving around High-Performance Computing and particularly high-performance storage. Besides his main goal to provide efficient and performance-portable I/O\, his HPC-related interests are: data reduction techniques\, performance analysis of parallel applications and parallel I/O\, management of cluster systems\, cost-efficiency considerations\, and software engineering of scientific software. \nHosted by Julian Kunkel.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Bibliometrics (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:Research Staff Development Opportunities. \nBibliometric data are increasingly used in research assessment exercises and in recruitment decisions but they can also give you insights into how your research is being used by others and help you to make informed journal choices. This session will introduce some commonly used bibliometrics and explain how they are calculated and what they mean. The issues behind the responsible use of metrics will also be explored. A hands-on section of the session will use tools such as Scopus\, SciVal\, Google Scholar and InCites to explore bibliometric data sources. This is a 90 minute session however the last 30 minutes will be allocated for hands on tasks.

SUMMARY:Managing your Digital Researcher Identity (1-1 Session) (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:Research Staff Development Opportunities. \nTracking the impact and reach of your research outputs is much easier if you have a consistent digital identity.  Give your digital identity a health check by looking at your Google Scholar\, ResearcherID\, Scopus Author ID and ORCiD profiles. In this one-to one session you can check which researcher identifiers you already have\, which ones you might need and ensure that your research outputs are correctly attributed to you. This session can include: setting up and/or checking your Google Scholar account; setting up and/or checking your ResearcherID\, Scopus Author ID\, ORCiD ID; checking that your publications are correctly attributed to you in bibliographic databases. \n13.00 – 13.45\, 14.00 – 14.45
