Description

The Open Science Grid (OSG) enables collaborative science by providing a national cyber-infrastructure of distributed computing and storage resources. The goal of the OSG is to transform processing and data intensive science through a cross-domain, self-managed, nationally distributed cyber-infrastructure that brings together campus and community resources. The High Energy Physics community has had a leadership role in the development, integration, adoption, deployment, and use of the OSG. Many other scientific communities actively use the infrastructure and share the accessible resources through their membership in the OSG without the need for prior allocation. Perspectives from the Tevatron, LHC experiments, neutrino experiments and more will be discussed. We will cover how OSG's collaborative approach to the engagement of new science applications and campus-wide cyberinfrastructures - to support an expanding mix of physics and non-physics applications and resources - provides mutual benefit to all.
