Porting Applications with Globus GridWay (90 mins)
Tino Vázquez and Eduardo Huedo (http://asds.dacya.ucm.es/ehuedo/)
View Participants

GridWay is a widely-used metascheduling technology that performs job execution management and resource brokering, allowing unattended, reliable, and efficient execution of jobs, job arrays, and workflows on heterogeneous and dynamic Globus Grids. The GridWay metascheduler is a Globus product, released under Apache license v2.0, that implements different OGF standards, such as DRMAA or JSDL. The aim of the tutorial is to provide a global overview of the process of installing, configuring and using GridWay. The course also focuses on the development of codes using the C and JAVA bindings of the DRMAA OGF standard. The development of codes using DRMAA assures compatibility of applications with other management systems that implements the standard, such as SGE, Condor, Torque...
WHO WILL PARTICIPATE IN THE SESSION?

Members of the GridWay team (http://www.GridWay.org) in the Distributed Systems Architecture Group (http://asds.dacya.ucm.es) at Universidad Complutense de Madrid (http://www.ucm.es) with strong background in Grid technologies and teaching experience. The GridWay team has been involved in several tutorials and workshops organized by the Open Grid Forum, organizes the annual UCM summer course in Grid technologies and teaches different University courses on parallel and distributed computing.

CHARACTERISTIC OF PEOPLE WHO COULD BE INTERESTED IN YOUR TUTORIAL

- Grid users and developers: GridWay provides a friendly CLI and a standard API to submit, control and monitor high throughput computing applications and abstract workflows, which may require file transferring and/or database access

- Grid administrators: GridWay on top of Globus provides support for the existing platforms and resource managers, allowing allocation of grid resources according to management specified policies, analysis of trends in resource usage and monitoring of user behavior

- Grid managers: GridWay on top of Globus allows the integration of non-interoperable computational platforms, establishing a uniform and flexible infrastructure and achieving a greater utilization of resources and higher application throughput
