Abstract ideas developed in Globus Condor and Legion for a harder problem (metacomputing) and developed for seamless problem by Sweb (Cornell) WebSubmit (NIST) or UNICORE (Europe)
Compiling, Executing, Specification of features needed for execution optimization
- This includes parameters needed by MPI/HPF decompositions such as number of processors
- Resource Management and Scheduling jobs as in Codine or LSF or new NT environments such as Wolfpack
Accounting -- use Web commerce technology?
Authenication, Security (especially hard in metacomputing as link several different management policies)
- Public Key Infrastructure expected from Internet commerce very important
