| PI Contribution | Direct contribution by GridPP3-funded 0.5 fte post at RHUL, to the operation of the RHUL GridPP node, and to the operation of the LondonGrid system as well. The RHUL-based GridPP team has also regularly (on average every 3 years since 2002) secured external funding to purchase very significant High-Performance Computing (HPC) resources to upgrade the GridPP cluster at RHUL. |
| Collaborator Contribution | As for IC, above. |
| Impact | The major impact of this collaboration has been the long-term effective operation of the LondonGrid Tier-2 system at sustained high levels of performance (efficiency, availability), thus delivering a significant data-processing resource to the community of GridPP users. |
