• Hard scatterings (large momentum transfer)

FIU Contributions to CMSFIU Contributions to CMS• Detector controls High Voltage (HV) Graphical User

Interface (GUI) and interface to database• Contributions to Data Acquisition (DAQ) prototyping• Networking/infrastructure building on AMPATH• Partnerships allow FIU to take additional responsibility

as expertise and manpower grows. For example:– Hagopian, Newman, and Avery work closely with FIU

to define areas of participation– Dan Green at FNAL provided consultation (August

'02) – CMS week at CERN discussion (December '02)

Networking ActivitiesNetworking Activities

• FIU, UFL, FSU form State of Florida Research Grid

• Int'l starting point is FIU's AMPATH initiative

• Extend iVDGL to South America

• Serve as pathway for research and education networking

Implications of Building Petascale Global Grids

• The transition to Global Grids will transform research in science and engineering

• If these developments are successful, and deployed widely as standards they will create– Profound advances in industry, commerce and

society at large &– Change relationships between people and

“persistent” information in their daily lives within the next five to ten years

• Realizing the benefits of these developments for society, and creating a sustainable cycle of innovation helps us TO CLOSE the DIGITAL DIVIDE
