Howdy Casperites, See below, info about the upcoming GNU Radio conference.
For those unfamiliar, GNU Radio is an open source software-defined radio project, and has a lot of crossover with CASPER's use cases and interests. As GPUs and CPUs get more powerful, there is an increasing amount of radio astronomy work one can do using GNU Radio's tools and software, and hopefully many of you at the recent CASPER workshop saw some of the GR talks from the collaboration's developers and users. Having been to a GNU Radio conference some years ago, I can attest to how much fun they are*. Cheers Jack *If you've never been to a talk where the presenter is wearing a dog "shock collar" around their wrist while explaining how to hack it, you really haven't experienced peak open-source radio hilarity. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Steve Croft <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 18 Jun 2021 at 00:23 Subject: GNU Radio conference To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Dear colleagues, As some of you know, there has been a lot of activity around GNU Radio in radio astronomy, including new GNU Radio enabled backends at the Allen Telescope Array, and the development of GNU Radio toolflows for radio astronomy. The GNU Radio project is also now administered by the SETI Institute (see https://www.seti.org/press-release/seti-institute-and-gnu-radio-join-forces for more details). This year's GNU Radio conference takes place in Charlotte, NC from September 20 - 24. Topics will include talks and workshops centered around radio astronomy but also span a huge range of applications across open source and RF applications, with lots of opportunity for collaboration and discussion. Discounted in-person registration is available until the end of June, and virtual registration (pay what you wish) is also available. The first round of abstract submission has closed, but there are still talk slots available until the schedule is filled.
