  1. 38. LHC@home status - Outlook for wider use of volunteer computing at CERN
    Dr Helge Meinhard (CERN)
    14/10/2014, 11:30
    Grid, Cloud & Virtualisation
    [LHC@home][1] was brought back to CERN-IT in 2011, with 2 projects; Sixtrack and Test4Theory, the latter using virtualization with CernVM. Thanks to this development, there is increased interest in volunteer computing at CERN, notably since native virtualization support has been added to the BOINC middleware. Pilot projects with applications from the LHC experiment collaborations running on...

  4. 15. The Adoption of Cloud Technologies within the LHC Experiments
    Laurence Field (CERN)
    17/10/2014, 09:30
    Grid, Cloud & Virtualisation
    The adoption of cloud technologies by the LHC experiments is currently focused on IaaS, more specifically the ability to dynamically create virtual machines on demand. This talk provides an overview of how this alternative approach for resource provision fits into the existing workflows used by the experiments. It shows that in order to fully exploit this approach, solutions are required in...

  5. 13. Evolution of WLCG monitoring
    Dr Edward Karavakis (CERN)
    17/10/2014, 10:00
    Grid, Cloud & Virtualisation
    The WLCG monitoring system provides a solid and reliable solution that has supported LHC computing activities and WLCG operations during the first years of LHC data-taking. The current challenge consists of ensuring that the WLCG monitoring infrastructure copes with the constant increase of monitoring data volume and complexity (new data-transfer protocols, new dynamic types of resource...
