TL;DR: The LHCb experiment is dedicated to precision measurements of CP violation and rare decays of B hadrons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN (Geneva).

TL;DR: The GridPP Collaboration as discussed by the authors is building a UK computing Grid for particle physics, as part of the international effort towards computing for the Large Hadron Collider, which began in September 2001 and completed its first phase 3 years later.

TL;DR: The Geant4 toolkit as mentioned in this paper is a toolkit for the analysis of the electromagnetic (EM) physics of the standard and low-energy models, including relativistic models for bremsstrahlung and e+e-pair production, models of multiple and single scattering, hadron/ion ionization, microdosimetry for very low energies.

TL;DR: The distributed analysis environment (DIANE) provides a master-worker workflow management layer above low-level GRID services that assures interoperability with existing middleware frameworks based on Web services.

TL;DR: The hybrid environment and the algorithm for automated load balancing are described, the influence of resource heterogeneity level is measured, and the speedup achieved with this technique is demonstrated for different types of applications and resources.
