Abstract

This volume of the IOP Conference Series is dedicated to scientific contributions presented at the 16thInternational Workshop on Advanced Computing and Analysis Techniques in Physics Research (ACAT2014), this year the motto was ‘‘bridging disciplines’’. The conference took place on September 1-5, 2014,at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic.The 16th edition of ACAT explored the boundaries of computing system architectures, data analysisalgorithmics, automatic calculations, and theoretical calculation technologies. It provided a forum forconfronting and exchanging ideas among these fields, where new approaches in computing technologiesfor scientific research were explored and promoted.This year's edition of the workshop brought together over 140 participants from all over the world. Theworkshop's 16 invited speakers presented key topics on advanced computing and analysis techniquesin physics. During the workshop, 60 talks and 40 posters were presented in three tracks: ComputingTechnology for Physics Research, Data Analysis - Algorithms and Tools, and Computations in TheoreticalPhysics: Techniques and Methods. The round table enabled discussions on expanding software,knowledge sharing and scientific collaboration in the respective areas.ACAT 2014 was generously sponsored by Western Digital, Brookhaven National Laboratory, HewlettPackard, DataDirect Networks, M Computers, Bright Computing, Huawei and PDV-Systemhaus.Special appreciations go to the track liaisons Lorenzo Moneta, Axel Naumann and Grigory Rubtsov for their work on the scientific program and the publication preparation. ACAT's IACC would also like to express its gratitude to all referees for their work on making sure the contributions are published in the proceedings. Our thanks extend to the conference liaisons Andrei Kataev and Jerome Lauret who worked with the local contacts and made this conferencepossible as well as to the program coordinator Federico Carminati and the conference chair Denis Perret-Gallix for their global supervision.Further information on ACAT 2014 can be found at http://www.particle.cz/acat2014
