📣 Help Shape the Future of UKRI's Gateway to Research (GtR)

We're improving UKRI's Gateway to Research and are seeking your input! If you would be interested in being interviewed about the improvements we're making and to have your say about how we can make GtR more user-friendly, impactful, and effective for the Research and Innovation community, please email gateway@ukri.org.

The GridPP3 Project - Tier-2 support

Lead Research Organisation: University of Bristol
Department Name: Physics

Abstract

The University of Bristol, in collaboration with other particle physics institutes in the UK, will continue the development of a large distributed computing system in support of the particle physics research programme. We will provide large-scale Tier-2 computing resources to facilitate analysis of data by physicists, and provide expert support to allow those resources to be maintained and used effectively.
