SouthGrid Management

SouthGrid is composed of the particle physics groups and e-Science centres of the Universities of Birmingham, Bristol, Cambridge, Oxford, and Warwick, and RAL.

Steering Committee/Management Board

The Steering Committee discusses issues of relevance to the whole of SouthGrid. Its terms of reference can be found here.

The Management Board is a subset of the Steering Committee concerned with GridPP/LCG-related activities. It may be expected to take in more members as participation in LCG expands.

The SouthGrid MoU for GridPP/LCG-related activites can be found here. (It should be noted that the word "Partner" is used to designate a participant, and not in the legal sense of creating a legal partnership.)

Technical Board

The Technical Board, chaired by the Technical Coordinator, is the meeting ground for technical and operational issues of the Tier 2 collaboration.

User Board

Though called for in the Terms of Reference, this board has not yet been constituted.
