EUDG IMPLEMENTATION IN KOREA FOR HIGH-ENERGY PHYSICS STUDY

Researchers in high energy physics (HEP) have had difficulties securing enough computing powers to store and process tons of data produced from accelerators. In addition, the fact that the researchers are distributed over the world compromises the efficiency of the high energy physics researches which are cooperative in nature. Grid, the so-called next generation Internet, is expected to overcome these difficulties. By integrating computing resources distributed over the world, Grid will allow increased accessibility to data, necessary computing powers, and storage space. In this paper, we describe the initial implementation experiences of HEP Data Grid in Korea using European Data Grid (EUDG) software developed by CERN.
