4. CROSSGRID WP44 Current Grid Activities Evaluation of the DATAGRID middleware Implementation of the Valencia testbed site: Maintenance of a Globus meta-directory:  Institutional MDS of Valencia “dc=ific, dc=es, o=Grid” Integration of Valencia into the DATAGRID testbed:  Globus gatekeeper;  Globus Condor and PBS job-manager;  GSI authentication through the Spanish (in IFCA) CA  Etc,... Participation in DATAGRID testbeds 0 and 1

5. CROSSGRID WP45 Current Grid Activities We are participating in this year in the DATA CHALLENGE 1 (DC1) of ATLAS experiment with two goals: Event productions in our farm in order to provide samples for physics studies and make the Technical Design Report for the end of 2002. To test in our farm the new software, including Geant4, the new event data model and the evaluation of two database technologies, Objectivity and Root-I/O. 400k events have been simulated in DC1 phase 1 (non EDG used, but foreseen for phase 2 ) Total CPU time: 21 Khours Total disk space: 1.1 TBytes

6. CROSSGRID WP46 Networking in Spain ISP: RedIris (Spanish Academic Research Network) Geant connectivity at 2.5 Gbits/s. US connectivity at 180 Mbits/s.
