CMS CALTECH TIER2

The Tier2 Computing Facility at the California Institute of Technology provides computing support for the international scientific community. Our facility is part of the Data Grid Hierarchy set-up for Large Hadron Collider experiments. It serves as an intermediary between the Tier1 center at Fermilab and universities in Southern California. Our primary focus is computing support for the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment. We provide resources for other high energy physics experiments as well as general-purpose scientific computing on the Open Science Grid. Our group is an active member of the Open Science Grid Consortium.
