  • HEPiX conferences HEPiX is an international group of cooperating institutions all of which are experiencing an explosion in the use of Unix for High Energy Physics (HEP) work. The focus of this group is to share experiences, influence vendors and standards bodies and to investigate solutions to those problems which impede the use of Unix for mainstream work at the member institutions. The initial areas of investigation include topics which are not fully addressed by current Unix offerings and are critical to the HEP computing environment. Such topics include:

    • Batch

    • Tape support

    • Software management & distribution

    • Portability of the physicist environment

    • Support of Commodity PC hardware and OS's.

  • The group held its first meeting at Fermilab on September 23-25th, 1991. There were about 40 participants from ANL, BNL, CERN, DESY, Fermilab, HEPnet, INFN, KEK, LAMPF, LBL, NIKHEF, SCRI, SLAC, SSCL, SURA/CEBAF, TRIUMF and Yale. Future meetings are held at roughly half-yearly intervals. In the fall of 1999, the HEPiX organization began to hold joint meetings with HEPNT, an orgnization similiar to HEPiX with a focus on the HEP Windows computing environment.
