Marshak Lectureship Award: Closing the Digital Divide in Latin America

COFFEE_KLATCH · Invited

Abstract

The new era of the High Energy Physics experiments motivates physicists to build new computing system to take in account of the produced data by LHC experiments (about 10 Petabytes per year). As these Experiments are performed in International Collaborations at world level, ICFA-International Committee for Future Accelerators create the SCIC/Digital Divide --Standing Committee on International Connectivity/Digital Divide to get information about the situation of the network in each country and its connectivity with the world. A report can be get it in the URL https://icfa-scic.web.cern.ch/ICFA-SCIC/. In this talk we intend to update the information about Digital Divide on the Latin America region, showing the possibilities for the near future participate of the LHC collaborations.
