“…lhc@home 2.0 in turn relies on cernvm [34,35] (a Virtual-Machine computing environment based on Scientific Linux), on the copilot job submission system [36,35], and on the Boinc middleware for volunteer computing [37,38].…”

The mcplots.cern.ch web site (mcplots) provides a simple online repository of plots made with highenergy-physics event generators, comparing them to a wide variety of experimental data. The repository is based on the hepdata online database of experimental results and on the rivet Monte Carlo analysis tool. The repository is continually updated and relies on computing power donated by volunteers, via the lhc@home 2.0 platform.

“…The GRID concepts became a number of technologies, thanks to middleware initiatives driven by HEP experiments themselves, and by large, public-funded software projects. As of today, experiments use a variety of technologies, including clouds, vacuum sites [4], and volunteers [5].…”

“…Once successfully completed, productions can be be archived, so their jobs can be removed, as well as their transformation tasks, and logs can be archived. Today's distributed computing has seen the emergence of IAAS in the form of cloud computing, and IAAC like VAC [6], or even mixed solutions, like those provided by volunteer computing projects like BOINC [3]. Experiments' distributed computing resources became more eterogeneous: in other words, the grid is not any more (only) The Grid.…”
