Organizers: SNIC and SeSE
Host: National Supercomputer Centre, Linköping University

The Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC) and Swedish e-Science Education (SeSE) welcomes all users of SNIC infrastructure to attend the SNIC User Forum meeting of 2014. The meeting will take place in Linköping on December 15–16 from lunch to lunch, and registration for the event is open for all users of SNIC resources. This page will contain all future updates concerning the event.

The Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing is a national research infrastructure with a threefold mission:

• Provide a balanced and cost-efficient set of resources and user support for large scale computation and data storage
• Meet the needs of researchers from all scientific disciplines and from all Swedish universities and university colleges
• Make the resources available through open application procedures such that the best Swedish research is supported 

In the procedure of converting the mission statements into a roadmap of concrete action points and investments, nothing is more important than the input and feedback from the user community and we therefore cordially invite you to take part in the SNIC User Forum 2014 and make your voice heard. We hope you can spare the time for a lunch-to-lunch seminar in order to contribute a reflection of your research.
