4. Distributed computing
These pages provide — and dissect — examples of workflows to be run on distributed resources with the DIRAC Interware system through iLCDirac, the extension developed by the Linear Collider community and used also by CALICE.
The procedure to be enabled to use the FCC resources through DIRAC is first described. Additional information about the use of iLCDirac can be found in the CLIC and ILC dedicated Wiki pages.
Unless specified, in the rest of this section the word DIRAC
refers to the iLCDirac
extension introduced above.
