Description
Detector optimisation studies for future high energy physics experiments require
the simulation and reconstruction of many physic processes and detector
geometries. As an efficient way of accessing the necessary computational and
storage resources, DIRAC has been developed and extended by iLCDirac, which is
specialized for the applications used in the context of linear collider detector
studies.
This talk will give a brief introduction of (iLC)Dirac, grid computing and the
philosophy of 'High-throughput Computing' behind it, and explain how we use
continuous integration to ensure smooth day-to-day operations and that updates
of the underlying code base do not cause an interruption of the service.
