G.Mikenberg2 General Comments on Israeli Education and Research (2005… but not far from now..) Israeli Population 6.86 Millions habitants. GDP/capita=18K$ Unemployment ~10% (not very high taking into account 1M immigration wave) 8 Universities (7 with large Research Programs) & 26 Academies/Colleges. % of GDP for Civilian R&D: 4.3% Average monthly wage:1.6K$. TECHNION created in 1924 & HU Jerusalem in 1925, Weizmann in 1935 (in 1948 1,600 students, now 260,000) TECHNION(HEP, TH&EXP) Haifa Univ (no HEP ) Tel-Aviv University (HEP TH&EXP Bar-Ilan University (no HEP) Open University Hebrew Uni. Jerusalem (HEP TH) Weizmann Inst., Rehovot (HEP TH&EXP) Univ. of Ber-Sheva (HEP TH&EXP)

G.Mikenberg6 Manpower for Experimental HEP Scientists: 32 – Tel Aviv University: 15 – Technion:3 – Weizmann:14 Engineers & Technicians, not paid by Grants: 15 – Tel Aviv University: 4 – Technion:3 – Weizmann:8 Graduate Students: 32 (30 in Theory) – Tel Aviv University: 13 – Technion:4 – Weizmann:15
7
CERN Unofficially - Israelis work at CERN since the 60’s Israel observer since 1990 Currently candidate for membership
8
ATLAS IL GRID Distributed Tier-2 across the 3 inst. Committed to 1.3% of ATLAS computing (equivalent to ATLAS participation in ATLAS). In addition each site serves as a local (but shared) Tier-3. Manpower: (Shared effort) 1-2 FTE per site.
9
Status (2009) CPU – (KSI2K): 750 Storage – 470 TB Network dedicated 1GB/sec with 2.5GB/sec conenction to GEANT backbone (IUCC). All sites are certificated by EGEE. Running ATLAS analysis jobs and receive data from Tier-1 (NIKHEF)
10
ATLAS TAU GRID IL-TAU-HEP New site (split from TAU-LCG2 Grid) In production since last month Moved to a new location yesterday (CC) 1/3 of IL ATLAS resources Manpower: Yan + 1/3 FTE + Technician and 1 HEP PhD student
