[ASA] First announcement and pre-registration for the "Astroinformatics 2013: Knowledge from Data" conference (9-13 December, 2013)

[Kate Chow]

Dear Colleagues,

This is the first announcement for the conference, "Astroinformatics 2013: Knowledge from Data".  The conference will be held from 9-13 December, 2013, at the CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science (CASS) Headquarters, in Sydney, Australia. Please forward this email onto any colleagues who might be interested. 

Astroinformatics is an emerging discipline at the intersection of astronomy/astrophysics and applied computer science and engineering, arising from the need to address the challenges and opportunities of exponential growth of data volumes, rates, and complexity from next-generation telescopes. 

Pre-registration is now open, so please visit the website http://tinyurl.com/astroinfo to register your interest, or for more information. Click "email updates" on the conference logo to fill in your details, or follow us on Twitter (@astroinfo2013). We will also be posting updates on the "Astroinformatics" page on Facebook, and you can "Like" this page from the conference website. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at astroinformatics at csiro.au.

Kind regards,
Kate Chow (on behalf of the organising committees)
