About CHEP 2012
The International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear
Physics (CHEP) is a major series of international conferences for
physicists and computing professionals from the high energy and nuclear
physics community, computer science, and information technology. CHEP
provides an international forum to exchange the experiences and needs
of the community, and to review recent, ongoing, and future activities.
CHEP 2012 was organized by the RHIC and ATLAS Computing Facility at
Brookhaven National Laboratory and co-sponsored by New York University. The
organizational structure for CHEP consisted of an International Advisory
Committee (IAC) which sets the overall themes of the conference, a Programme
Organizing Committee (POC) that oversees the program content, and a Local
Organizing Committee (LOC) that is responsible for local arrangements
(lodging, transportation, social events, etc) and conference logistics
(registration, program scheduling, conference site selection, conference
proceedings, etc).
