Virtual OrganisationsYou need to be authorised to use Grid resources and all users are managed via the Virtual Organisation system where all users doing similar work, in similar disciplines or working on the same experiment are grouped together and have access rights (and restrictions) applied to them. |
Which VO you choose to work with depends on the work you wish to do. Within the UK there are a few test VOs which can be used by individuals wishing to look at how easy it would be to "Gridify" their work and these could be a good starting point, your local Grid contact will be able to suggest a suitable one.
Finding a VO
However your project or discipline may already have a VO. For example if you are working on T2K, the ILC or on Biomedical research there are specific VOS for these communities, again your local Grid contact should be able to advise you. The current list of VOs supported by GridPP are here.
Creating a VO
Depending on the size of your project and the success you have had with one of the test VOs there is also the possibility to set up a new VO. The method for doing that is laid out here.
