We are developing a new global computing platform, based on XtremWeb 1.8.0 : XtremWeb-HEP (XtremWeb for High Energy Physics).
This new platform :
- introduces the notion of data;
- extends application deployment by allowing end user applications one;
- introduces the notion of project;
- introduces the notion of “public” and “private” computing resources;
- uses certificates;
- …
This platform permits to continue our work on towards standardization and hopefully resources sharing with EGEE.
