The Computing Center is responsible for construction, management and maintenance of the IHEP networks and computers. With advanced computing facilities, the Center is able to process mass data for high energy physics experiments and to provide advanced computing surroundings. The PC cluster system with high performance and mass data storage system currently being built will be even more powerful and available for mass data processing

　　IHEP built the fast internet line in China in 1986 and became the first internet node in China in 1988. In 1994, the first WWW site was constructed at IHEP, which contributed a lot to the later development of the nation's cyber network. By 2005, the bandwidth of IHEP network output had reached 1Gbps with perfect security and network services.

　　The Center is doing research on such innovation projects as the new generation grid computing system, network security, management and mass data storage. Cooperating with international partners, the Center has been actively involved in the construction of Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG.).
