This is an example to run jobs and especially SLIC , the Simulator for the Linear Collider, on the FermiGrid which is part of the Open Science Grid. SLIC is a Geant4-based simulations package that uses an XML geometry input format called LCDD to describe geometry, sensitive detectors and readout geometry. In this example SLIC is tared up and put on a web accessible disk space. The grid jobs wgets the tar file unpacks it and runs SLIC on the stdhep files that is provided with the tar package.
This is only one way to do it. Other options include:
