Computing at the Belle II experiment

Abstract

Toward the start of data taking with the beam provided by the SuperKEKB accelerator in 2017, the Belle II, the next-generation flavor factory experiment in Japan, is establishing the computing system based on a distributed computing technologies. The system was examined in the periodical simulation mass production campaigns and was improved according to constructive feedback. In parallel, the data transfer challenges were performed with the transpacific and transatlantic network which plays an essential role in success of the Belle II experiment in the next decade. In this paper, the Belle II computing model and recent activities are presented.
