This proposal, submitted in response to the 2014 invitation from STFC, aimsto provide and operate a computing Grid for the exploitation of LHC data inthe UK. The success of the current GridPP Collaboration will be built upon,and the UK's response to production of LHC data in the period April 2015 toMarch 2016 will be to ensure that there is a sustainable infrastructureproviding "Computing in the LHC era"We propose to operate a Grid as the main mechanism for delivering verylarge-scale computational resources to the UK particle physics community.This foundation will underpin the success and increase the discoverypotential of UK physicists. We will operate a production-quality Grid,delivering robustness, scale and functionality. The proposal is fullyintegrated with international projects and we must exploit the opportunityto capitalise on the UK leadership already established in several areas. TheParticle Physics Grid will increasingly be integrated with national andinternational initiatives.The project will be managed across various domains and will deliver the UK'scommitment to the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) and ensure thatworldwide activities directly benefit the UK.By 2015, the UK Grid infrastructure will have expanded in size to 50,000cores, with more than 30 PetaBytes of storage. This will enable the UK toexploit, in an internationally competitive way, the unique physics potentialof the LHC.

该提案是应STFC 2014年的邀请提交的，旨在提供和运营一个计算网格，用于在英国利用LHC数据。当前GridPP协作的成功将建立在，英国对2015年4月至2016年3月期间LHC数据生产的反应将是确保有一个可持续的基础设施提供“LHC时代的计算“我们建议将网格作为提供超大型-将计算资源扩展到英国粒子物理学界。这一基础将巩固成功，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建立的领导地位。粒子物理网格将越来越多地与国家和国际倡议相结合。该项目将在各个领域进行管理，并将履行英国对全球大型强子对撞机计算网格（WLCG）的承诺，并确保全球活动直接使英国受益。到2015年，英国网格基础设施的规模将扩大到50，000个核心，存储量超过30 PetaF。这将使英国能够以具有国际竞争力的方式利用LHC独特的物理潜力。
