Meeting with VAST(Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology)
Dr. Moon Young-ho and KISTI researchers visited VAST(Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology) on March.16th in Hanoi and had a meeting with Prof.Dr.Sc.Duong Ngoc Hai, Vice President of VAST and some of representatives of VAST institutes. During the meeting, Dr.Lee Hyuck-jai has introduced COMPAS to VAST and discussed the way of technology consulting and transfer of COMPAS system. COMPAS is developed by KISTI and is suitable software for analyzing competitive information for SMEs who want to devlep new product and want to know of their competitors. COMPAS is an on-line analysis service which is intended to help firs make information decisions by providing means to analyze the comptitive environment-often represented by the vast amount of the intellectual peroperties such as patents, journal articles, and traading statistics. User can condut rapid and in-depth analysis on the most frequently asked MOT(Managment of Technology) questions of targeted technological areas by following the simple and easy steps in COMPAS. Dr. Moon and and Dr.Duong, Vice President of KISTI and VAST have agreed to conduct joint R&D project first before introducing COMPAS system to Vietnam. KISTI and ISI ,IOIT of Vietnam will discuss follow-up actions in near future. -

2015 KISTI Global Academy for S&T Infrastructure
KISTI held 2015 Global Academy for S&T Infrastructure on May 14-15 in its head office. Global Academy was planned to provide developing countries with experience and knowledge on S&T Infrastructure KISTI has been building up since its foundation in 1962. This program was organized in cooperation with STEPI(Science and Technology Policy Institue) and researchers from Science and Technology Information Center in Ethiopia participated as 1st trainees. 2 days of this program consisted of 3 main areas such as information collection and serive, information analsyis and evaluation, supercomputing utilization. Researchers of STIC learned the history and process of S&T Infrastructure development in Korea and discussed the way with KISTI researchers they will persue in future. Responding to the increasing demand from developing countries, KISTI will expand its S&T Infrastructure training program next year. -

KISTI expands KISTI-Geneva Sectioin to 10 Gbps
KISTI said on April 21st that it will expand its GSDC data bandwidth to 10 Gbps. Korean scientist can receive LHC source data 10 times faster than now and real-time utilization of its data is expected to improve the competitiveness of R&D on basic science. By building up 10Gbps data bandwidth between Daejeon and Geneva, KISTI can transmit 1 PB data in 23 days which took 289 days with 2Gbps before. The expansion of 10 Gbps is a follow-up action of CERN’s approval on April, 2014 of Tier-1 center for Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning(MSIP) and KISTI. KISTI expanded the bandwidth of Daejeon-Chicago section to 10Gbps and secured Chicago-Geneva section by collaborating with “SURFnet” of Netherlands. Korea scientists were not easy to access to CERN In the meantime, Korean scientists were not easy to approach CERN and used to suffer from data delay till now. -

KISTI-NVIDIA signs MOU for MPCC
Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) and NVIDIA signed an MOU on Aug. 6th for the construction of KISTI-NVIDIA MPCC, Massively Parallel Computing Center. More Massively Parallel Computers using GPU(Graphic Processing Unit) are now listed on the TOP 500 Supercomputer List, and are being actively researched and utilized as the next generation of Supercomputing Architecture. Domestically, however, not many related studies are underway due to the lack of professional manpower. Through the signing of this MOU, KISTI-NVIDIA MPCC plan to operate GPU based Massively Parallel Computer expert training program. Moreover, MPCC will build a GPU exclusive system for developing and utilizing the new generation Massively Parallel Computer. Dr. Jysoo Lee, Head of KISTI National Supercomputing R&D Division noted: "MOU between KISTI National Supercomputing R&D Division and the global-leading corporation NVIDIA is much expected to amplify the synergy in training domestic experts and invigorating related research."
