A Grid Enabled Version of SOAP for the Aerospace Cluster and CDC Communities
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The Satellite Orbital Analysis Program (SOAP) is a widely recognized software and engineering analysis tool authored by Aerospace. Many users in multiple communities use SOAP. SOAP can be computationally demanding, and may require super-computing resources for timely execution. This is particularly critical when used in time-demanding operations, such as concurrent design iterations within the Aerospace Concept Design Center (CDC). However, the use of Aerospace grid computing resources is being hindered by increasing security requirements and the lack of automated job transport mechanisms between the clusters and corporate desktop standard computers. We envision the development of a capability that will allow users of SOAP to task the Fellowship cluster. SOAP includes computation-intensive features such as generation of parametric studies, contouring of global coverage statistics, and determination of orbital close approaches. In partnership with JPL, these features have been adapted for use with distributed computing through the use of Message Passing Interface (MPI). We intend to extend this work to support MS-Windows based clients and to automate the cluster job submission and retrieval process. The results of this project will enable Aerospace users to leverage supercomputing resources with an extensively used tool and will serve as a pathfinder for bringing parallel computing to other desktop client software.

Target Tracking Based on Virtual Grid in Wireless Sensor Networks
One of the most important and typical application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is target tracking. Although target tracking, can provide benefits for large-scale WSNs and organize them into clusters but tracking a moving target in cluster-based WSNs suffers a boundary problem. The main goal of this paper was to introduce an efficient and novel mobility management protocol namely Target Tr...
متن کاملScientific Flow Field Simulation of Cruciform Missiles Through the Thin Layer Navier Stokes Equations
The thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations are solved for two complete missile configurations on an IBM 3090-200 vectro-facility supercomputer. The conservation form of the three-dimensional equations, written in generalized coordinates, are finite differenced and solved on a body-fitted curvilinear grid system developed in conjunction with the flowfield solver. The numerical procedure is based on ...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of rinsing the vascular access site for hemodialysis with Betadine scrub and soap by patient on the frequency and onset of local inflammation and infection
Background: Despite the implementation of nursing measures in disinfecting the vascular access site for hemodialysis, this area is responsible for 23 to 73 percent of bacteremias occurring in these patients. Participation of the patients in washing this area may be helpful. Aim: this study was conducted to determine and compare the effect of washing vascular access site for hemodialysis with ...
متن کاملConstruction of Hexahedral Block Topology and its Decomposition to Generate Initial Tetrahedral Grids for Aerodynamic Applications
Making an initial tetrahedral grid for complex geometry can be a tedious and time consuming task. This paper describes a novel procedure for generation of starting tetrahedral cells using hexahedral block topology. Hexahedral blocks are arranged around an aerodynamic body to form a flow domain. Each of the hexahedral blocks is then decomposed into six tetrahedral elements to obtain an initial t...
