SIRIUS General Assembly

SIRIUS organizes General Assembly twice a year, in spring and fall. General Assembly in spring is considered a researchers event focused on the research output of the centre. The Fall GA is focused on the current year’s reporting and planning for the following year. All partners (academic and Industrial) and researchers actively participate in both General Assemblies. 


Upcoming General Assembly Event

Workshop Descriptions

Workshop 1: Facility Asset Information Modelling Framework (IMF)

Abstract:
The seminar will summarise the status on the development of IMF, including tutorials, use cases and information about the DNV Recommended Practice on IMF under development. 

Workshop 2: Knowledge-driven machine learning

Abstract:
We will present the ambition of the new SFF Integreat – The Norwegian Center for Knowledge-Driven Machine Learning, which will start in September 2023, and how the SIRIUS program on domain-adapted data science will continue as part of Integreat. Furthermore, we will have concept talks and visionary talks about knowledge-driven machine learning.

Workshop 3:  Scalable computing for data intensive applications

Abstract:
The seminar will cover infrastructure and middleware to facilitate applications analysing big data sets. There will be presentations covering the latest high performance computing infrastructure developments, and how high performance can be used for complex tasks like reservoir simulations. Persistent applications with variable resource demands will benefit from renting Cloud computing resources during peak load periods, and middleware automating this process will be presented and showcased. The use of digital twins for application optimisation in a Cloud-Edge-IoT continuum will be covered as a promising, new research direction.
