This proposal, submitted in response to the 2009 invitation from STFC, aims toprovide and operate a computing Grid for the exploitation of LHC data in the UK.We propose to operate a Grid as the main mechanism for delivering very large-scalecomputational resources to the UK particle physics community. This foundation willunderpin the success and increase the discovery potential of UK physicists. Wewill operate a production-quality Grid, delivering robustness, scale andfunctionality. The proposal is fully integrated with international projects and wemust exploit the opportunity to capitalise on the UK leadership alreadyestablished in several areas.The main objectives (equal priority) are:1) To operate and maintain the UK Tier-1 center at RAL meeting national andinternational obligations to the wLCG and the LHC experiments.2) To operate and maintain the UK Tier-2 infrastructure, meeting national andinternational obligations to the wLCG and the LHC experiments.3) To deploy, operate and support the Grid middleware in the UK across the Tier-1and Tier-2 facilities.4) To support the experiments in the use of the UK Grid.5) To manage the GridPP project in an open, efficient, and cost-effective manner.6) To collaborate and communicate across the UK and international communities.

这份提案是应2009年STFC的邀请提交的，旨在为英国的LHC数据开发提供和运营一个计算网格，我们建议将网格作为向英国粒子物理界提供超大规模计算资源的主要机制。这个基础将巩固成功，并增加英国物理学家的发现潜力。我们将运营一个生产质量的网格，提供鲁棒性，规模和功能。该提案完全与国际项目相结合，我们必须利用这个机会，利用英国在几个领域已经确立的领导地位。（同等优先）是：1）运营和维护RAL的英国一级中心，履行wLCG和LHC实验的国家和国际义务。2）运营和维护英国二级基础设施，履行wLCG和LHC实验的国家和国际义务。3）部署，在英国的Tier-1和Tier-2设施中操作和支持网格中间件。4）支持英国网格的使用实验。5）以一种开放、高效和具有成本效益的方式管理GridPP项目。6）在英国和国际社会进行合作和沟通。
