HEP Track - GridKa School

→ Europe/Berlin
KIT Camputh South
Description
The High Energy Physics (HEP) community has been following the start-up of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN with great interest. The collision data collected over the last months exceed the volume from the 2010 run by orders of magnitude. The Standard Model has been "rediscovered" with remarkable precision in the new energy regime and the experiments are sharpening the tools for the expected discoveries. On the computing site the infrastructure had to ramp-up rapidly to operations at full scale and computing models and analysis strategies are confronted with data taking in full swing. Although the computing part worked generally well, some evolution is already ongoing in various areas. The HEP track will consist of two parts. In the first part we will have some presentations about new trends and technologies, like CernVMFS, remote data access and Clouds for HEP. In the second part we will have some small practical hands-on exercising some of mentioned techniques.
