Infrastructures and Grid technologies

ARC is one of the top GRID middlewares used nowadays among several organizations, most notably CERN and LHC experiments. Very clear architecture, robust design, non-intrusive installation and portability make it popular among several clusters in many countries. An overview of ARC, Nordugrid and associated projects will be presented with the current status of operation, specific features and...

9. Monitoring, Control and Optimization in large scale distributed systems

An important part of managing large-scale, distributed data-processing facilities is a monitoring system for computing facilities, storage, networks, and the very large number of applications running on these systems in near realtime. The monitoring information gathered for all the subsystems is essential for developing the required higher-level services—the components that provide decision...

16. Powering the Grid: the EGEE project and the gLite Middleware Stack

Francesco Giacomini (INFN Bologna and CERN)

Infrastructures and Grid technologies

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) is Europe's leading Grid computing project, providing a computing infrastructure covering about 300 sites for over 10,000 researchers world-wide, from fields as diverse as high- energy physics, earth and life sciences. The EGEE infrastructure is based on a Grid Middleware stack called gLite, which is integrated, certified and distributed by the project...
