EGEE - Enabling Grids for E-Science
An European project to provide researchers with access to a
grid, i.e. a geographically distributed large-scale
computing infrastructure.
- Integrates 71 leading institutions in 27 countries
Leverages numerous national/regional grid activities world-wide.
- Operates in conjunction with the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid Project
(WLCG) at CERN.
Provides the computing infrastructure for the Large
Hadron Collider (LHC).
- Provides a production grid distributed over more than 200 sites
