Conferences

Talks given by LCG-France

• First IPM meeting on LHC Physics, Isfahan (Iran) 20-24 April, 2009, The LHC Grid Challenge, Conférence donnée par Fairouz Malek
• Le défi informatique du LHC, Conférence donnée par Fairouz Malek à l'ULP Strasbourg, le 23 octobre 2008.
  15 millions de gigaoctets de données à traiter et à stocker par an : voilà le défi de la grille de calcul du LHC (LCG pour LHC Computing Grid). Des besoins informatiques considérables seront nécessaires pour analyser les données issues des 4 grandes expériences auprès du LHC, le grand collisionneur de hadrons situé au CERN près de Genève, et rechercher les rares signaux de Higgs et de nouvelle physique. Une grille de calcul mondiale s'est ainsi mise en place pour réunir dans un effort commun tous les instituts impliqués dans ces expériences. la présentation
• 3rd EGEE User Forum 11-14 February, 2008
  Challenges and success of the HEP GRID. Fairouz Malek (LPSC Grenoble)
  The presentation gives an overview of the HEP scientific activities, the grid involvment within W-LCG and the Experiment and Sites data and service challenges undertaken in preparation to the LHC start up in automn 2008.

• ISGC 2007 Taipei
  French tier-1 & associated Tier-2s; Status and Plans: Vincent Breton (LPC-Clermont)
  The presentation will give an overview of grid activities in France within the context of W-LCG, the French GRID initiative will be presented. The french Tie-1 hosts the four LHC experiments and is connected to a widely distributed list of Tier-2s. The talk will review the readiness for the LHC startup and explain works which have been undertaken in preparation. Problems encountered will be highlighted: Transparencies

• ISGC 2006, Taipei (Taiwan)
  IN2P3 and DAPNIA activities in Worldwide LHC Computing Grid : Fréderique Chollet (LAPP)
  The presentation gives an overview of grid activities in France mostly within the context of WLCG. LCG-France, the french contribution to the WLCG international collaboration was presented. The LCG-France project was launched in 2004 by High Energy actors : IN2P3 (CNRS) and DAPNIA (CEA-DSM) in order to provide a funded Tier-1 centre and an Analysis facility in Lyon's Computer Centre supporting the 4 LHC experiments. LCG-France has as well promoted the emergence of Tier-2 and even Tier-3 centres and established collaboration with others Tier 1 and Tier 2 sites  : Transparencies
