Grant: Subatomic Physics Envelope - Major Resources Support Program
University of Victoria
$137,000.00
HEPNet
FY 2008-09
Summary
This application requests funding for the continued operation of HEPnet/Canada, in support of Wide Area Networking for Subatomic Physics research. The subatomic physics community in Canada is especially reliant on computer networks to fully participate in experiments at national and international laboratories. HEPnet/Canada has established a high-speed network for ATLAS and other HEP projects. A dedicated link between TRIUMF and CERN has been provided by CANARIE and HEPnet/Canada. A dial-up service, allowing physicists to connect to the Internet while they are away from their home institute, is also in place. In addition, HEPnet also participates in the study and development of Grid computing for HEP applications.
