SMSCG - Swiss Multi-Science Computing Grid is a project proposed to the AAA/SWITCH program
is a Working Group of SwiNG
Primary goal:
provide computing resources to solve scientific computational problems
Requirements• Increase the scope from a few partners to a national effort• Enable diverse applications on the Grid• Provide users with Grid and application access• Minimize operational and management issues (sites, users)• Early collaboration with other projects
• Increase the scope from a few partners to a national effort• Enable diverse applications on the Grid• Provide users with Grid and application access• Minimize operational and management issues (sites, users)• Early collaboration with other projects
• WP4 Monitoring• Monitoring system implemented (v1)• Have test and development installation procedures• Ongoing development of Grid and ARC specific plug-ins
• WP5 Security and Policies• Security Policy documents created (AUP + GUP)
