Description

The third EIC Echelon 0–1 Workshop will be held at Brookhaven National Laboratory on Thursday, October 15, 2026. This workshop will bring together DAQ and computing experts engaged in the planning and development of the Echelon 0 and Echelon 1 sites as well as members of EIC International Computing Organization for the ePIC experiment at the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider.

The meeting will focus on status and plans, with an emphasis on technical discussions of data transfer and latency, data streaming and workflow  orchestration, and resource estimates and requirements. These discussions will also be relevant to the Echelon 2 sites, which form an integral part of the computing infrastructure for ePIC. 

The workshop will be in person  in BNL Science and User Support  Center [Bldg.101] (with the possibility to connect via Zoom and participate in the discussion remotely). It will be open to the HENP community
