The Challenge Why don't you run "real" LHC physics on
BOINC?
The Challenge Why don't you run "real" LHC physics on
BOINC?
Problems: Heterogeneity
Problems: Porting code
Problems: Large & complex libraries
Problems: Experiments workflow • Jobs should be sent using CERN
distribution systems. • Volunteer computing resources should be: ◦ managed and ◦ trustful
BOINC + CernVM
