TOG & JOSH: Grid scheduling with Grid Engine & Globus
نویسنده
چکیده
TOG and JOSH are two fully Globus-enabled grid scheduling tools based around Grid Engine, the Globus Toolkit and a variety of data grid technologies. These tools were originally developed by the EPCC Sun Data and Compute Grids (Sun DCG) project. This paper describes these tools and their use in e-Science projects in the UK and abroad. 1. Grid Engine & Globus Grid Engine [1] is an open source distributed resource management system that allows the efficient use of compute resources within an organisation. However, Grid Engine, alone, does not provide the means to share resources between collaborating organisations or enterprises. The Globus Toolkit [2] is essentially a Grid API for connecting distributed compute and instrument resources. Integration with Globus enables Grid Engine to provide this collaboration amongst enterprises. Sections 2 and 3 of this paper describe the TOG and JOSH tools respectively. These tools integrate Grid Engine with the Globus Toolkit to enable collaborating organisations to share resources. 2. TOG : Transfer-queue Over

متن کاملInteroperability of the BIS - Grid Workflow Engine with Globus Toolkit 4
In the D-Grid project BIS-Grid we developed the BIS-Grid Workflow Engine in order to utilize a common WS-BPEL workflow engine for scientific workflow execution in WSRF-based Grid infrastructures. The BIS-Grid Workflow Engine itself is built on the Grid middleware UNICORE 6 to benefit from its security mechanisms and to automatically gain interoperability with UNICORE 6-based Grid infrastructure...
متن کاملMSF: A Workflow Service Infrastructure for Computational Grid Environments
Globus has become a standard in the construction of Grid computing environments. However, it still needs more work and research to satisfy requirements from various grid applications such as workflow services. We propose a Meta Scheduling Framework (MSF) for workflow service management based on the Globus toolkit. The MSF provides an XML-based Job Control Markup Language (JCML) for describing i...
متن کاملAn Efficient Parallel Loop Self-scheduling on Grid Environments
The approaches to deal with scheduling and load balancing on PC-based cluster systems are famous and well-known. Self-scheduling schemes, which are suitable for parallel loops with independent iterations on cluster computer system, they have been designed in the past. In this paper, we propose a new scheme that can adjust the scheduling parameter dynamically on an extremely heterogeneous PCbase...
