“…It acts as a gateway to access local jobmanagers, and because it does not restrict them, practically any local jobmanager Y such as Condor [22], SGE [38] or LSF [39] Y can be accessed by connected into P-GRADE Portal Grids. GridFTP [23] is the file management interface of computational and storage resources.…”

Computational Grids connect resources and users in a complex way in order to deliver nontrivial qualities of services. According to the current trend various communities build their own Grids and due to the lack of generally accepted standards these Grids are usually not interoperable. As a result, large scale sharing of resources is prevented by the isolation of Grid systems. Similarly, people are isolated, because the collaborative work of Grid users is not supported by current environments. Each user accesses Grids as an individual person without having the possibility of organizing teams that could overcome the difficulties of application development and execution more easily. The paper describes a new workflow-oriented portal concept that solves both problems. It enables the interoperability of various Grids during the execution of workflow applications, and supports users to develop and run their Grid workflows in a collaborative way. The paper also introduces a classification model that can be used to identify workflow-oriented Grid portals based on two general features: Ability to access multiple Grids, and support for collaborative problem solving. Using the approach the different potential portal types are introduced, their unique features are discussed and the portals and Problem Solving Environments (PSE) of our days are classified. The P-GRADE Portal as a Globus-based implementation for the classification model is also presented.

Abstract. High Performance Computing (HPC) is becoming much more popular nowadays. Currently, the biggest supercomputers in the world have hundreds of thousands of processors and consequently may have more software and hardware failures. HPC centers managers also have to deal with multiple clusters from different vendors with their particular architectures. However, since there are not enough HPC experts to manage all the new supercomputers, it is expected that non-experts will be managing those large clusters. In this paper we study the new challenges to manage HPC environments containing different clusters with different sizes and architectures. We review available tools and present LEMMing [1], an easy-to-use open source tool developed to support high performance computing centers. LEMMing integrates machine resources and the available management and monitoring tools on a single point of management.

“…This interaction, which utilises the Java Commodity Grids (Java CoG) Kit in the Execution Layer, is kept isolated from the rest of the broker to which the ComputeServer class is presented as a single compute resource. In production Grids, it is more likely that the remote resource may be a cluster running some sort of a batch job management system such as Portable Batch Scheduler [26] or Sun Grid Engine (SGE) [27] . These job queueing systems may be accessible either through Globus job managers or directly using command line utilities.…”

Abstract:Grids provide uniform access to aggregations of heterogeneous resources and services such as computers, networks and storage owned by multiple organizations. However, such a dynamic environment poses many challenges for application composition and deployment. In this paper, we present the design of the Gridbus Grid resource broker that allows users to create applications and specify different objectives through different interfaces without having to deal with the complexity of Grid infrastructure. We present the unique requirements that motivated our design and discuss how these provide flexibility in extending the functionality of the broker to support different low-level middlewares and user interfaces. We evaluate the broker with different job profiles and Grid middleware and conclude with the lessons learnt from our development experience.
