【 摘 要 】

The Skygrid system was developed in order to provide distributed computing resources for SHiP experiment at CERN. Skygrid is designed to perform computations in grid manner with central scheduling service - Metascheduler, and multiple computing sites. Skygrid employs two new computational paradigms: running computations in containers and applying web browsers for volunteer computing. Each of these paradigms allows running computations on broader heterogeneous resources and making these computations reproducible in the same time.
