University of Glasgow GridPP Mid-Term Review 1.What has been
achieved in the first 18 months? Oversight Committee (May 2003):
Conclusion "Excellent progress, management, control, reporting and
thinking (both tactical and strategic), we look forward to an
equally successful second half of the project as the investments
made translate into middleware roll-out and benefits to the HEP
experiments. It is difficult to imagine more impressive progress
all round." 2.Development in the medium-long term? GridPP1

University of Glasgow Identifiable progress via testbed monitoring
All testbed sites can be said to be truly on a Grid by virtue of
their registration in a comprehensive resource information
publication scheme, their accessibility via a set of globally
enabled resource brokers, and the use of one of the first scalable
mechanisms to support distributed virtual communities (VOMS).
UK-wide development using EU-DataGrid tools (v1.47). Not yet
robust, but sufficient for prototype development. See

Timeline Slide 8 Tony Doyle - University of Glasgow High Level
Deliverables At the start of each year the Project Management Board
will review these in order to specify that years target in terms
that can be easily defined and monitored across the Grid. Slide 9

Tony Doyle - University of GlasgowConclusion We request 23.1m to
fund our three-year project, GridPP2 This will provide a Production
Grid incorporating 1.access to the Tier-0 Centre at CERN and the
LCG deployment releases 2.the UK Tier-1 Centre 3.integration of
four distributed Tier-2 centres 4.technical development in
Middleware, Security and Networking 5.Grid integration of the
experiments The project is in direct support of PPARC's highest
priority science programme, the LHC
