School programme and objectives. The aim of the school is to provide theoretical and hands-on training on Data Science and Python development for astrophysics, astroparticle physics and particle physics. It has been designed around the partners' needs and their open science developments. As such, a solid background of basic requirements to contribute to open science is provided. The lectures are organised around 6 blocks: - The coding environment, tools and good code practice module teaches participants to set up their scientific environment and the good practices. - Version control, collaborative and continuous development and integration. In this section, participants learn how to use git and GitHub for collaborative developments, see what unit tests are and why they are important in your continuous development and integration process, how to package a library and manage it efficiently with version control. - Profiling, debugging and optimising. A module to learn how to debug code efficiently, then profile it to find the computing bottlenecks and finally optimise the important bits. - Scientific Python libraries. This module gives an overview of libraries that are the building blocks of scientific analysis in Python in astronomy, astroparticle and particle physics. Some are generic data science ones (numpy, scipy, pandas) while others are more community specific and developed by ESCAPE members or partners (astropy, gammapy, scikit-HEP). - Introduction to machine learning. This module allows participants to discover what's hiding behind the buzzword and develop their first analysis using machine learning algorithms, from basic ones to neural networks. - Open lectures: an introduction to Xxxxx, Spark and a scientific webinar from a renowned professor. Only a basic knowledge of the Python programming language was requested to best profit from most of the courses. The lectures are then designed and given by very experienced and talented developers or even authors themselves of the presented libraries The complete agenda is accessible at xxxxx://xxxxxx.xx0x0.xx/event/20306/timetable/ and provided in appendix. The scheduled programme has been thoroughly followed at the exception of the deep learning lecture that had to be cancelled due to an external event.

  • Scope and Objectives 1. This Partnership Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the “Agreement”) defines the rights and obligations of the Parties and sets forth the terms and conditions of their cooperation in the implementation of the Project.

  • BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The partnership proposed by the Cooperator was selected due to merit review evaluations from the 2017 Notice of Funding Opportunity P17AS00037. The Cooperator demonstrated expertise in disciplines and subject areas of relevance to cooperative research and training. The Cooperator met the program interests of NPS with expertise, facilities, experience, diversity of programs, and history of collaborative research projects. The Cooperator helps the NPS-CESU to meet its objectives to:  Provide research, technical assistance and education to NPS for land management, and research;  Develop a program of research, technical assistance and education that involves the biological, physical, social, and cultural sciences needed to address resources issues and interdisciplinary problem-solving at multiple scales and in an ecosystem context at the local, regional, and national level; and  Place special emphasis on the working collaboration among NPS, universities, and their related partner institutions. Title: Provide research, technical assistance and education for resource management and research The CESU network seeks to provide scientifically-based information on the nature and status of selected biological, physical, and cultural resources occurring within the parks in a form that increases its utility for making management decisions, conducting scientific research, educating the public, developing effective monitoring programs, and developing management strategies for resource protection. Studying the resources present in NPS parks benefits the Cooperator’s goal of advancing knowledge through scientific discovery, integration, application, and teaching, which lead toward a holistic understanding of our environmental and natural resources. The Cooperator is a public research university, sharing research, educational, and technological strengths with other institutions. Through inter-institutional collaboration, combined with the unique contributions of each constituent institution, the Cooperator strives to contribute substantially to the cultural, economic, environmental, scientific, social and technological advancement of the nation. The NPS expects there to be substantial involvement between itself and the Cooperator in carrying out the activities contemplated in this Agreement. The primary purpose of this study is not the acquisition of property or services for the direct benefit or use by the Federal Government, but rather to accomplish a public purpose of support or stimulation authorized the Legislative Authorities in ARTICLE II. This agreement fulfills the Public Purpose of support and economic stimulation for the following reasons:  Projects will engage recipients, partners, communities, and/or visitors in shared environmental stewardship.  Projects will promote greater public and private participation in historic preservation programs and activities. The project builds resource stewardship ethics in its participants.  The information, products and/or services identified or developed by projects will be shared through a variety of strategies to increase public awareness, knowledge and support for historic preservation and stewardship of the nation’s cultural and historical heritage.  Projects will support the Government’s objective to provide opportunities for youth to learn about the environment by spending time working on projects in National Parks. The NPS receives the indirect benefit of completing conservation projects.  Projects will motivate youth participants to become involved in the natural, cultural and /or historical resource protection of their communities and beyond.  Students gain “real world” or hands-on experience outside of the classroom of natural, cultural and/or historical resource projects.  The scientific community and/or researchers external to NPS gains by new knowledge provided through research and related results dissemination of natural, cultural and/or historical resource information.  Projects assist in the creation, promotion, facilitation, and/or improvement of the public’s understanding of natural, cultural, historic, recreational and other aspects of areas such as ecological conservation areas, and state and local parks. For performance under this cooperative agreement, the regulations set forth in 2 CFR, Part 200, supersedes OMB Circulars A–21 (2 CFR 220), A–87 (2 CFR 225), A–110, and A–122 (2 CFR 230); Circulars A–89, A–102, and A–133; and the guidance in Circular A–50 on Single Audit Act follow–up apply. The Cooperator shall adhere to 2 CFR, Part 200 in its entirety in addition to any terms and conditions of the master agreement not superseded by 2 CFR 200, as well as the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement. In the event of a conflict between the original terms of the master agreement and 2 CFR, Part 200, relating to this task agreement, 2 CFR, Part 200 shall take precedence.
