Description
The ARDA project was started in April 2004 to support
the four LHC experiments (ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb)
in the implementation of individual
production and analysis environments based on the EGEE middleware.
The main goal of the project is to allow a fast feedback between the
experiment and the middleware development teams via the
construction and the usage of end-to-end prototypes
allowing users to perform analyses out of the present
data sets from recent montecarlo productions.
We present the status of the integration of the EGEE
prototype Grid middleware into the analysis environment of the
four LHC experiments. First an overview is given on the individual
architectures of the four experiments' prototypes with a strong focus
on how the EGEE middleware is incorporated into the framework. We
outline common points in the usage of the middleware and try to point
out differences in the decisions taken by the experiments on the
inclusion of different parts of the EGEE software. We will conclude
by presenting the first feedback from the usage of these analysis
environments.
