The computing requests are based on the Computing Model Technical Design Report for the LHCb Upgrade [LHCb-TDR-018], adjusted to the currently known LHC running schedule and the expected activities to be performed by the LHCb experiment. Two scenarios are presented, corresponding to whether 2026 is a data taking year or not. </abstract> </record> </records> </xml>
