Foil 23 Issues in prototyping XML definition of resource subset

From Overview of DATORR and Resource working Group Second DATORR Meeting Sandia National Laboratory -- February 15-16 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


What is the subset? One suggestion is
  • Submit to a batch queues managing N supercomputers
  • Submit interactively
After we decided that this is too hard -- do this later
As part of this discussion, we discussed issues such as:
  • Do supercomputers require memory model and notion of collection of nodes?
  • Or are they an abstract compute resource without detailed knowledge of internal structure
  • They are of course both!
What is query mechanism?
  • Access www.datorr.org with XML tools ....? Record world's supercomputers (TOP500)
  • Map into Legion, Globus, or Condor syntax
