FAIR Computing
The FAIR experiments will
• produce tens of PetaBytes of raw data per year,
with up to 1 TByte/s from the experiments to the Tier0,
which need to be safely and permanently stored
• analyze these datasets over several years, requiring
also extensive simulations and theory calculations

An Alarming Truth
World wide air-traffic causes around
2 % of the global CO2 emission –
just as much as commercial IT! (ca. 30
GW)
