From the Web to the Grid and Beyond Computing Paradigms Driven by High-Energy Physics /

Born after World War II, large-scale experimental high-energy physics (HEP) has found itself limited ever since by available accelerator, detector and computing technologies. Accordingly, HEP has made significant contributions to the development of these fields, more often than not driving their inn...
