8. 29 May 2002 Joint EDG/WP8-EDT/WP4 Meeting 8 Claudio Grandi INFN Bologna ATLAS: DC1 & 2 DC1/1: simulation of 10**7 evts for HLT TDR started 15 April. Bulk of production will start after 15 June DC1/2: stress is on new software (20-9 till Xmas) Use of currently avalable Grid tools favoured but not mandatory: start with EDG 1.2 in EU and VDT 1.0 in US: Some US sites deploy EDG software and vice-versa. Integration of Magda (US data catalog+some replica management) with EDG RC Critical issue the EDG stability and reliability DC2: start spring 03 Use EDG release 2 Grid API to be inserted in ATHENA framework Magda and WP2 convergency plan to be detailed and executed Integrate VDT components

12. 29 May 2002 Joint EDG/WP8-EDT/WP4 Meeting 12 Claudio Grandi INFN Bologna CMS: Overview Build a unique CMS-GRID framework (EU+US) EU and US grids not interoperable today Help from DataTAG-iVDGL-GLUE Work in parallel in EU and US Main US activities: MOP Virtual Data System Interactive Analysis Main EU activities: Integration of IMPALA with EDG WP1+WP2 sw. Batch Analysis: user job submission & analysis farm CMS Production Framework

13. 29 May 2002 Joint EDG/WP8-EDT/WP4 Meeting 13 Claudio Grandi INFN Bologna CMS: Schedule 2000-01: A few sites in production. Some grid tools used “in production” (GDMP). 2002: World-Wide productions. Prototypes of “distributed” production sites deployed in US and EU. DAQ TDR. 2003: Integration activities: US/EU grid interoperability. First grid-enabled sites used “in production”. 2004: 5% data challenge. Deployment of delivered LCG prototypes. CCS TDR. 2005: preparation for 20% data challenge. Build "final" computing environment. Physics TDR. Long term schedule being revised now!

20. 29 May 2002 Joint EDG/WP8-EDT/WP4 Meeting 20 Claudio Grandi INFN Bologna Summary Experiments are integrating Grid tools in their computing environment Most of the experiments are using Grid tools delivered by more than one Grid Project Most of the experiments are not planning to use the tools out of the box but to adapt them to their needs  Need help by middleware experts for interoperability Need non-standard facilities to develop and test the experiment computing environment. Help by middleware experts is needed for that too
