  1. Regional Center in JapanStatus Report Monarc Regional Center Representative Meeting August 26, 1999 Katsuya Amako (KEK)

  2. New movements - 1 From my slide I showed in the last regional center representative meeting: • Convince Atlas-Japan[*] members • The concept of regional center is too new for some Atlas-Japan members. • Take time to get their understanding of its necessity. We need to show the feasibility of the concept by showing R&D results in technical aspects. [*] Domestic organization to manage the whole activities related to the Atlas experiment (Atlas is the only commitment for LHC from Japan). # Of member institutes: 17 # Of members: ~60 (no students included)

  3. New movements - 2 We had a collaboration board meeting on 26th June, 1999 at Kobe, Japan. • The Atlas-Japan group convinced its need to have a regional center in Japan. • A major reason we convinced the necessity of RC was by what Les Robertson reported in Monarc Regional Center Meeting on 13 April 1999, i.e. “Offline computing at CERN supports for a few analysis groups (Atlas/CMS: ~4 groups, ~100 physicists)”

  4. New movements - 3 We decided to organize a committee to prepare a global proposal of the regional center in Japan for the Atlas experiment. Members are • Katsuya Amako (KEK, Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics) • Tomio Kobayashi (ICEPP, Univ. of Tokyo) • Hiroshi Takeda (Kobe Univ) • Yoshiyuki Watase (KEK, Computing Science Center) with technical consultants: • Youhei Morita, Takashi Sasaki (KEK, Computing S.C.) Due date to submit the proposal to Atlas-Japan is by the end of November. Once the proposal of a global view is approved by the collaboration, another committee will be formed. This committee will provide a more concrete proposal, which eventually will be submitted to the Japanese government.

  5. New movements - 4 We also submitted to KEK a proposal of R&D for Atlas-Japan regional center. The major subjects in R&D are • to study possible computing models of the Atlas-Japan regional center (= what Youhei is doing now), • distributed data accessing using the Storage Area Network technology. We got an approval (although the amount of budget is small) of this R&D from KEK last June. • A signal to support the RC in Japan.
