Welcome to my work webpage, part of the larger Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre website. Here you will find everything I have published relating to my work as an Applications Consultant at EPCC.
This section of the page consists of all my published files relating to the QCDgrid project. So far you can find my document explaining how to set up machines for QCDgrid. The latest version covers installation of the actual QCDgrid software as well as Globus 2.0.

Also here is a corrected version of the Globus replica catalogue schema - the one distributed by Globus is in MS-DOS text format and causes problems for OpenLDAP.
Added 12/9/2003 - a document describing how the GridPP virtual organisation system works and how to apply it to QCDgrid.
Added 11/6/2002 - this document describes what is required of the QCDgrid data grid and proposes an implementation based on the existing Globus and GDMP software.

However, this design had a number of shortcomings so a new architecture has been developed to overcome these problems. This document describes the new grid with reference to the prototype software implementation.
