Tsm-sim: a Two-stage Grid Metascheduler Simulator

چکیده
Computing grids must deliver non-trivial qualities of service, in terms of response time, security, reliability, and coordination of various grid resources. Grid meta-schedulers play a crucial role into the execution of applications, because they match grid application jobs with available grid resources. However, a typical grid application is not an isolated single grid job, but a composition of multiple grid jobs. Existing grid schedulers provide match making algorithms tailored only for independent grid jobs, with limited support for complex workflow submission and management. This paper presents TSM-SIM, a two-stage metascheduler simulator for grid workflow applications. It supports dynamic grid resource and job simulation, and provides a submission interface for workflow grid applications as a single unit, rather than as a set of grid jobs. The proposed simulator simplifies complex grid workflow applications scheduling, by implementing two-staged metascheduler architecture. It also allows the study of performance evaluation in a repeatable and controlled manner.

A Multiagent Grid Metascheduler
This work proposes a Metascheduler for GRID platforms based on the Interaction Protocols of the Multiagent Systems. These protocols use the paradigm of economic models to define the coordination mechanisms in agent communities. Specifically, in this work we use auction and tender economical models. We propose an adaptive Metascheduler for GRID platforms using these ideas. According to the numbe...
متن کاملA Metascheduler For The Grid
With the advent of Grid Computing, scheduling strategies for distributed heterogeneous systems have either become irrelevant or have to be extended significantly to support Grid dynamics. In this paper, we describe a metascheduling architecture for a Grid system that takes into account both the application and system level considerations. Results are presented to prove the efficiency of the met...

Air Quality Forecasting (AQF) is a new discipline that attempts to reliably predict atmospheric pollution. The application has complex workflow and in order to produce timely and reliable forecast results daily, each execution requires multiple computational and storage resources to be simultaneously and collaboratively available. Deploying AQF on grid is one option to satisfy such needs, but r...

We describe a new methodology for modelling key microarchitectural features in an advanced undergraduate computer architecture course and demonstrate the specific application of this methodology to branch predictors. The proposed approach consists of two separate, but synergistic programming assignments. In the first part, students implement the branch prediction logic as an independent softwar...
متن کاملCustomized Plug-in Modules in Metascheduler Community Scheduler Framework 4 (CSF4) for Life Sciences Applications
As more and more life science researchers start to take advantages of grid technologies in their work, the demand increases for a robust yet easy to use metascheduler or resource broker. In this paper, we have extended the metascheduler CSF4 by providing a Virtual Job Model (VJM) to synchronize the resource co-allocation for cross-domain parallel jobs. The VJM eliminates dead-locks and improves...
