11:00 12:00	Lecture 7	How the LHC experiment have interpreted the Grid distributed computing model	Mattia Cinquilli
		Description Yet another talk on Grids? You may think you know all you need to know about Grid and its usage by LHC experiments. But do you know that every experiment has his own interpretation of the grid model? Why did they make different interpretation? Was it because of different requirements, by chance? The major differences lye in data management and workload management. What does it mean in practice? But Grids are not set in stone, they evolve, so what next. After a comparative analysis of the Grid interpretations and implementations by LHC experiments, the lecture will conclude with discuss future trends and possible evolution scenarios.
		Audience and benefits This lecture targets computer scientists and physicists interested in an overview of the Grid paradigm explained through a comparison of its implementation by LHC's experiments. At the end of the lecture, participants, in particular computer scientists, are expected to have a better understanding of how the specific services they use or are working on fit in the global Grid picture.
		Pre-requisite This lecture can be reasonably followed by anyone having some minimum knowledge of distributed computing.
