Goal and description of the COMPASS VO
---------------------------------------------------------------------
COMPASS is a high-energy physics experiment at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN. The purpose of this experiment is the study of hadron structure and hadron spectroscopy with high-intensity muon and hadron beams.
Nearly 220 physicists from 13 countries and 24 different institutions work in COMPASS and some 2PB of physics data are collected every year.
The COMPASS VO is aimed to allow to bring together and coordinate the computational resources that each participating institution makes available to the Experiment, within a distributed-computing model that encompasses a number of different countries.
