GRID PROJECTS

TOC:- Overview- Applications> GRID projects - Support- Program Mgr.


NEES GRID• Network for Earthquake

Engineering Simulation• http://www.neesgrid.org/

• Goals:• Address needs of structural, geo-

technical and tsunami researchers• Form an integrated, networked,

national, simulation resource

GRID PROJECTS



NEES GRID and Internet2• Currently providing several forms of

assistance:• Loaning hardware• Technical presentations at NEES

conferences• Reviewing survey report of NEES

participants’ current network status

GRID PROJECTS



High Energy Nuclear Physics• High Energy Nuclear

Physics (HENP)• Completed “Charter

Meeting” last weekhosted at the Ann Arbor Internet2 offices

• http://www.usatlas.bnl.gov/computing/mgmt/lhccp/henpnet/

GRID PROJECTS



HENP Goals

Help ensure that the required national and international network infrastructures, monitoring tools and facilities, and collaborative systems, are developed and deployed in a timely fashion to meet the needs of the U.S. LHC Program, as well as the HENP community.

GRID PROJECTS



HENP and Internet2• Currently providing several forms of

assistance:• Coordinating meeting space and

logistics• Providing information distribution and

support (will soon host website and content creation)

• Pilot group for End to End Performance analysis

GRID PROJECTS



Supporting the Community• Knowledge Sharing

• Technical presentations and programs• On-site demonstrations

• Technical Support • Loaner hardware • Software tools (monitoring, diagnostic)

• Internet2 acts as a clearinghouse to help distribute information through the community
