DESCRIPTION:\n	Born after World War II\, large-scale experimental high-ene
 rgy physics has found itself limited ever since by available accelerator\,
  detector and computing technologies. Accordingly\, HEP has made significa
 nt contributions to the development of these fields\, more often than not 
 driving their innovations. The invention of the World Wide Web at CERN is 
 merely the best-known example out of many. This book is the first comprehe
 nsive account to trace the history of this pioneering spirit in the field 
 of computing technologies. It covers everything up to and including the pr
 esent-day handling of the huge demands imposed upon grid and distributed c
 omputing by full-scale LHC operations - operations which have for years in
 volved many thousands of collaborating members worldwide and accordingly p
 rovide the original and natural testbed for grid computing concepts. This 
 book takes the reader on a guided tour encompassing all relevant topics\, 
 including programming languages\, software engineering\, large databases\,
  the Web\, and grid and cloud computing. The important issue of intellectu
 al property regulations for distributed software engineering and computing
  is also addressed. Aptly\, the book closes with a visionary chapter of wh
 at may lie ahead.\n	 \n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confI
