Description
Conclusions and Future Work
According to our first experiences, the application development methods of EDGeS, together with ETICS-2 build and workflow-based test facilities, can provide an efficient solution for the above described efforts. For the future work, we plan to apply these new methods to more applications, and to disseminate the results.
Impact
The presented solution tries to offer best practices for other Grid initiatives and projects, and increase the reliability and portability of Grid applications among various flavours of platforms.
Detailed analysis
The aim of the validation phase is to assure that the application causes no harm to the computers of Desktop Grid donors and also that it conforms to the generic aims of the target Desktop Grid system. This stage is inevitable in order to deploy the application on a Desktop Grid platform, where individuals or institutions offer their volunteer resources for the computation.
In the framework of the EDGeS project MTA SZTAKI has started utilizing some high level, workflow-based solutions for these purposes developed in the ETICS-2 project.
The main goal of the high level workflow tool is to ease the multi-node test design, when the required services are deployed on different machines, and where the data exchanges between different phases of complex multi-node deployment on different nodes are crucial.
