Common use of HEP Applications Clause in Contracts

HEP Applications. CERN (funded and unfunded) The 4 posts funded by EGEE will be placed with the CERN EP/SFT group. This group has representatives from all the LHC experiments, including the software architects, and also includes coordinators for several key LCG activities, including the applications area. CERN will provide 4 FTEs in addition to the 4 FTEs funded by XXXX, giving a team of 8. There are several people already within the LCG project, funded by CERN, working in this area. X. Xxxxxx, the DataGrid HEP Applications WP Manager, will form part of this effort for the start-up phase of the EGEE project. Strong working links with the 4 LHC experiments will be established, and two people will be assigned to each experiment. The team will be managed as a coherent whole allowing some flexibility in support of the experiments and the establishment and execution of common goals. Members of the team will work with the experiments to help define and execute the work programmes associated with integrating the experiment systems with EGEE middleware. They will evaluate the performances obtained on the LCG infrastructure and provide material for the evaluation reports. Members of the team will contribute to the work on the common application layer specification, liaising closely with the LCG ARDA and GAG activities It is planned that 80% of the effort of team members will go towards experiment specific activities, and 20% for common activities such as architecture, design, and the production of the EGEE deliverables. Russian Institutes (funded and unfunded) The planned activities of the participating Russian institutes are as follows: ▪ IHEP - Management of ATLAS VOs in Russia; Support of XXXXX, CMS and LHCb pilot applications; Identification of early users; ▪ ITEP - Management of LHCb and XXXXX XXx in Russia, Support of ATLAS and CMS pilot applications; Identify early users; Introduction of new user communities; ▪ JINR - Support ATLAS, XXXXX, CMS and LHCb pilot applications; Identify early users; Introduction of new user communities; ▪ PNPI - Support HEP pilot applications (ATLAS, CMS, XXXXX, LHCb) for St-Petersburg region, identification of early users; ▪ RRC KI - Support of XXXXX pilot applications. Lead partner for Nuclear Fusion GRID applications in Russia. Identification of early users. Introduction of new user communities; ▪ SINP-MSU - Management of CMS VO in Russia; Support of ATLAS, XXXXX and LHCb pilot applications; Introduction of new user communities;
