Abstract :
The ATLAS group from IFIN-HH is involved in several physics studies. For these we perform data analysis and Monte Carlo simulations operating large amounts of data. The main aim of this following paper is to present how we developed a computing cluster who offers access to the experiment software via a distributed filesystem and it´s able to process the simulations and real data analysis combining distributed and parallel computing and using xrootd, a very scalable and fast protocol, for data storage.
