The HEPP project is part of the Norwegian CERN-related program, funded by the Research Council (RCN). During the successful 6-year period 2006-2011, although the main activity was ATLAS, project members were also involved in theoretical work related to and/or relevant for LHC physics, in software and distributed (Grid) computing, in detector upgrade activities, as well as in a vast education & outreach program towards young students and media. The first 4-year period of the current program (2012-2019) successfully ended in December 2012 and the second period started in January 2016, with main emphasis the ATLAS experiment. The partners UiO, UiB and NTNU/HiG contribute with permanent staff members and PhD students. Post-docs are funded by RCN, as well as hardware, computing and operation of ATLAS. The HEPP project collaborates among others with NorduGrid, USIT, NeIC, Uninett Sigma 2, SDI, SINTEF.
