Mark your calendars for the 31st annual conference on Astronomical Data
Analysis Software and Systems (http://adass.org). The conference will be
held on 24-28 October 2021, and hosted by IDIA, RATT, and SARAO.
This annual conference, held in a different location each year, is a forum
for astronomers, computer scientists, software engineers, faculty members
and students working in areas related to algorithms, software and systems
for the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and dissemination of astronomical
data.
The ADASS XXXI program will include invited talks, contributed papers,
poster sessions, tutorials, computer demonstrations, and special interest
("Birds of a Feather" or BoF) meetings. These activities aim to stimulate
further development of software and systems to meet the data science
challenges of astronomy.
At this time, the Local Organizing Committee is working on hosting a hybrid
meeting, with some in-person attendance and likely a large number of
virtual attendees. Please note that if the COVID-19 situation changes such
that in-person attendance is no longer possible, the meeting will switch to
a fully virtual format.
In the meantime, we are happy to announce the list of invited speakers for
this year's key themes.
- Rachel Street (Solutions for workflow management and reproducibility)
- Michelle Lochner (Understanding and improving machine learning)
- Eric Murphy (Modernizing and maintaining telescopes)
- Kumiko Usada-Sato (Building accessible and friendly user interfaces)
- Simon O'Toole (FAIR standards for astronomical data)
- Chenzhou Cui (Teaching resources for astroinformatics and virtual
observatories)
- Urvashi Rao (Image processing for the public and scientists)
- Emily Lakdawalla (Image processing for the public and scientists)
- Andy Connolly (Big data: How to deal with the 5 Vs (volume, velocity,
variety, veracity and value)
- Meg Schwamb (Citizen science in astronomy)
Further details regarding the format will follow in the coming months.
Among many things, we will be looking at solutions to maximize attendance
for a hybrid meeting. This format brings some new scheduling challenges
given the various time zones of our international community.
The International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA) meeting normally
follows the ADASS meeting. This year the IVOA is planning for a fully
virtual meeting. Please visit ivoa.net for details regarding that meeting.
