First Tuesday @ CERN: Industrial Impact of Information Technology from CERN

<!--HTML--><br> CERN is where the web was born, and remains a hothouse of innovation in information technology (IT). In this fourth First Tuesday @ CERN, we look at industrial partnership at CERN in the IT area from several different angles. The approach taken by CERN with software licencing - a very hot topic in the world of IT - will be discussed. The benefits that CERN hardware and software suppliers gain from working with CERN will be presented, and the CERN openlab, a new approach to industrial partnership at CERN, will be covered. <br><br> A novel ingredient of this First Tuesday @ CERN is that it will be run in parallel with a similar event for the business community in London, and there will be webcast presentations between the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London and CERN during the event. Thus, First Tuesday @ CERN will take on a truly European dimension, to reflect CERN's European character.<br> <BR><I>More information: <a href=http://www.rezonance.ch>http://www.rezonance.ch</a></i>, <I>or view the <a href=http://agenda.cern.ch/fullAgenda.php?ida=a042131>joint UK event program</a><br><br>
