LHC did a new update with their BOINC software and they release a lot of data that can be analyzed, I actually haven't seen myself what data is being analyzed but essentially BOINC divides the data released from LHC into packets and then it is send to the users who download BOINC, and it does computations on those by using the user's resources who downloaded it and later the computers send the data back. I think looking into what BOINC does with the LHC's data maybe the best shot at realizing what LHC itself does with the collected data.
