EGEE Virtual Organisations

• EGEE (LCG) counts over 180 sites worldwide providing ~38000 CPUs and ~13000 TB of storage

• EGEE is driven by HEP and biomedical activities• Some non HEP VOs: Biomed, Compchem

(Chemistry), Egeode (Geophysics), ESR (Earth Sciences), Fusion (Physics), Magic (Astrophysics)

• Full list of 70 registered VOs (not all active) available at:

Grid Utilisation by VOs• HEP main customer of the Grid

(~95% of total use)!• Biomed and ESR main non-physics

VOs• Full accounting data is available on:

Biomed Data Challenges• EGEE (GridPP) sites dedicated

resources to 2 Biomed data challenges:1. ‘Wide In Silico Docking On

Malaria’ in June/August 052. ‘In Silico Docking on Grid

infrastructures to accelerate drug design against H5N1 neuraminidases’ in April 06

• EGEE news release: `… 2000 computers were used during 4 weeks in April – the equivalent of 1000 years on a single computer.’

• Appeared in the media (BBC news)

Grids in the UK

Two main Grid deployment efforts in the UK: GridPP and NGS• GridPP tightly integrated with EGEE/LCG project

→ Use gLite middleware→ Supports EGEE VOs

• GridPP counts 24 sites providing more than 5000 CPUs and ~300 TB of storage

• NGS consists of 4 core sites + 4 partners sites with over 2000 CPUS and over 36 TB of data

• NGS and GridPP working towards convergence There are other UK projects and projects with UK involvement,

e.g. CancerGrid and MammoGrid
