The SPAS-UAH Cluster for the JEM-EUSO Computing Model

2012 
The JEM-EUSO space observatory will be launched and attached to the Japanese module of the International Space Station (ISS) in 2016. Its aims is to observe UV photon tracks produced by Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) and Extremely High Energy Cosmic Rays (EHECR) developing in the atmosphere and producing Extensive Air Showers (EAS). JEM- EUSO will use our atmosphere as a huge calorimeter, to detect the electromagnetic and hadronic components of the EAS. For High Energy Physic (HEP) experiments the huge amount of data and complex analysis algorithms require the use of advanced GRID computational resources. Therefore a complete infrastructure is needed for the simulation and data analysis, in the frame of the GRID architecture, and computing infrastructure, intended for the JEM-EUSO space mission software. Moreover solutions to account for a complete installed cluster system, with the software and data repositories, as well as a many other details are pointed out.
