Description
Resource management and scheduling of distributed, data-driven
applications in a Grid environment are challenging problems. Although
significant results were achieved in the past few years, the
development and the proper deployment of generic, reliable, standard
components present issues that still need to be completely
solved. Interested domains include workload management, resource
discovery, resource matchmaking and brokering, accounting,
authorization policies, resource access, reliability and
dependability. The evolution towards a service-oriented architecture,
supported by emerging standards, is another activity that will demand
attention.
All these issues are being tackled within the EU-funded EGEE project
(Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe), whose primary goals are the
provision of robust middleware components and the creation of a
reliable and dependable Grid infrastructure to support e-Science
applications.
In this paper we present the plans and the preliminary activities
aiming at providing adequate workload and resource management
components, suitable to be deployed in a production-quality Grid.
