New logo - details

• Agreed by the Project Management Board – after several iterations…

• For use from GridPP2 – September• Working with PPARC on new designs for

– Powerpoint templates– Poster templates– Brochures

• Currently writing leaflets for AHM• Images pages

– www.gridpp.ac.uk/pics/stand2004/index.html and cern.html• Web pages

– Will be redesigned to go with new logo– Re-organise to make more ‘stranger friendly’

Welcome to GridPP

GridPP is a collaboration of particle physicists and computer scientists from the UK and CERN, who are building a computing Grid for particle physics. GridPP is funded by PPARC as part of its e-Science Programme.

GridPP has built a working prototype grid across 17 UK institutions. Over the next three years, this will be extended to the equivalent of 20,000 PCs.

To learn more about GridPP please contact Sarah Pearce who is the GridPP Dissemination Officer.

Portal and demos

• Post at Imperial College – recruiting now• Review current Grid portals, survey users• Will produce a portal toolkit

– With reference implementation – emphasis on dissemination

– working with UKDMC, Calice, MICE and anyone else interested

• Also working on demo for All Hands and other conferences

• LCG monitoring Java applet, with additional developments

LCG map – thanks to GOC

• Working with GOC and CERN to put GOC map on LCG front page

• Developing ‘clickable’ map, with details of resources at each centre– Starting with UK

map, for GridPP web site

• Also developing map that shows GridPP and NGS status– Show details at

each Tier 2
