Experimental Shares Attempted to determine what the ‘fair shares’ of the Tier-2 resources are. e.g. Linear Collider Multiply each resource by HEP Share and experiment share (+ time/belief weight) and integrate over all institutes. GridPP CB Meeting 12 Jan 2005
Experimental Shares Probably needs to be updated yearly If overall Tier-2 resources were used in these proportions then (on average) everyone's kit would be used for what it was bought for. GridPP CB Meeting 12 Jan 2005
Status Challenge now is to deliver the resources and to be able to monitor and schedule them From GIIS – Some numbers are x2 too high (hyperthreading) (LCG only – doesn't include contributions to BaBar, CDF, D0) Number of UK Tier-2 'CPU's HEFCE SRIF2 Procurement issues Configuration Issues +930 at Tier-1 gives UK: 2381 CPUs out of 9122 in 94 sites in 31 countries GridPP CB Meeting 12 Jan 2005
