In the summer of 2009 Stanford University Libraries created a Digital Forensics Lab (http://lib.stanford.edu/digital-forensics) to preserve and process born digital archival materials.  The lab was designed to use forensic technologies to safely transfer and process born digital data from physical media that is at risk of loss due to bit rot and format obsolescence.  The tour will include a visit to the Digital Forensics Lab, a brief demonstration of the forensic hardware and software, and a discussion of our lab workflow.  The lab space is small so the number of tour participants will limited.  If you are interested in seeing our new lab please RSVP Michael Olson at [log in to unmask]

 

International Scholarly Infrastructure Technical Summit (SITS)

November 4th

Fee: Free – Space is limited

Stanford Campus

Scholarly Infrastructure Technical Summits (SITS) are face-to-face meetings of technical experts (developers) with the purpose to discuss operational techniques for implementing reusable infrastructure components.
Members of the DLF Developer Community are encouraged to attend, as this is an opportunity to discuss current activities with an international group of colleagues. SITS meetings are specifically for lead developers, chief technical officers and head system administrators who are currently working on large scale scholarly systems that are reused by multiple partners.  These meeting are intended to be reflective on technical operations currently taking place in these major infrastructure systems.  Topics addressed will primarily be operational technical experience with new system components, e.g. use of a new apache project or testing of a new messaging systems architecture, etc.
