A file repository for calculations of cross sections and kinematic distributions using Monte Carlo generators for high-energy collisions is discussed. The repository is used to facilitate effective preservation and archiving of data from theoretical calculations and for comparisons with experimental data. The HepSim data library is publicly accessible and includes a number of Monte Carlo event samples with Standard Model predictions for current and future experiments. The HepSim project includes a software package to automate the process of downloading and viewing online Monte Carlo event samples. Data streaming over a network for end-user analysis is discussed.

We propose a method to estimate the probability of new physics discovery in future high energy physics experiments. Physics simulation gives both the average numbers <Nb> of background and <Ns> of signal events. We find that the proper definition of the significance for <Nb>, <Ns> ≫ 1 is [Formula: see text] in comparison with often used significances: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We propose a method of taking into account the systematical errors related to nonexact knowledge of background and signal cross-sections. An account of such systematics is essential in the search for supersymmetry at LHC. We also propose a method for estimating exclusion limits on new physics in future experiments.

The DØ experiment at Fermilab's Tevatron will record several petabytes of data over the next five years in pursuing the goals of understanding nature and searching for the origin of mass. Computing resources required to analyze these data far exceed capabilities of any one institution. Moreover, the widely scattered geographical distribution of DØ collaborators poses further serious difficulties for optimal use of human and computing resources. These difficulties will exacerbate in future high energy physics experiments, like the LHC. The computing grid has long been recognized as a solution to these problems. This technology is being made a more immediate reality to end users in DØ by developing a grid in the DØ Southern Analysis Region (DØSAR), DØSAR-Grid, using all available resources within it and a home-grown local task manager, McFarm. We will present the architecture in which the DØSAR-Grid is implemented, the use of technology and the functionality of the grid, and the experience from operating the grid in simulation, reprocessing and data analyses for a currently running HEP experiment.
