Global Design Effort

The Global Design Effort (GDE) is an international team tasked with designing the International Linear Collider (ILC), a particle accelerator to succeed current machines such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Stanford Linear Accelerator (SLAC). The goal of the GDE is to produce an ILC Technical Design Report by the end of 2012 which will be used to decide the future of the project.[1] The Global Design Effort is currently headed by Barry Barish of Caltech, former director of the LIGO laboratory.
