Abstract :
SuperB is an international enterprise aiming at the construction of a very high luminosity asymmetric e+e- flavor factory. SuperB will be a partner, together with the LHC and eventually the ILC, in searching for new physics. Since the first steps of detector design, the load of computing issues in terms of Monte Carlo algorithm execution requires the exploitation of resources in a full distributed model. The SuperB choice is to build a Grid integrated system identifying both the consolidated and upcoming solutions to accomplish the typical HEP class experiment requirements. The model, moreover, has to be flexible, in order to deal with the rapid technological improvements and the expected long life of the experiment. The in progress design and setup of SuperB distributed computing model is presented including the complete discussion of the Grid services selected for the prototype.
