  9. High Energy Physics - HEP Brazilian Grid Coordination - Alberto Santoro Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  10. HEP • Current state • UERJ (A. Santoro) • a grant from Faperj • February 2002 • a cluster with (perhaps) 32 nodes • UFRGS • has two small clusters • Myrinet, fastethernet, SCI • bulding a new 32 nodes Myrinet cluster • mainly for development and testing

  11. DOAP • Grid-like middleware • Distributed object oriented programming • Adaptive scheduling • Mobile computing Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  12. DOAP Concerns GRID Computing Adaptation (Aplication and System) CLUSTER Computing Mobility (Hardware andSoftware) System's Components Availability SystemHeterogeneity

  13. A pervasive view in GRID Computing DOAP: a pervasive view GRID Computing Wide-area Meta-computing High performance equips. Mobile Computing Wireless Adaptability High heterogeneity

  14. GRID Computing in DOAP Adaptation Centric Scheduling Development Decisions Execution Decisions Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  15. DOAP Architecture Holoparadigm Multiparadigm;Blackboards;Mobility. Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  16. DOAP Architecture Mobility: Hardware and Software Language level adaptation constructors Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  17. DOAP Architecture High Distributed ApplicationsExecution level adaptation mechanisms EXEHDA – Execution Environment for High Distributed Applications

  18. DOAP Architecture Proposals for object: Migration;Optimized communication;Monitoring PRIMOS – PRIMitives for Object Scheduling

  19. VIC++ For Access Grid Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  20. VIC ++ • Access Grid • a Grid for people • people interact with Grid resources • interaction between people groups • distributed seminars, discussions, workshops, classes, ... Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  21. VIC++ • VIC and RAT • software for video and audio transmission • mbone tools • used by Access Grid (also VRVS) Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  22. VIC++ • Global Supercomputing 2001 • a node at Instituto de Informática - UFRGS • Experience results • mbone tools are not easy to operate • they lack some features for adaptation to dynamic environment Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  23. VIC ++ • VIC ++ • an extension of VIC • two main targets: • an adaptive algorithm • adjust the VIC configurations to the network conditions • reduce the work of the operator during a session • to expand the statistics generator of the VIC • in order to provide more data to the researcher Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  24. VIC++ • Distributed XPDF • alternative to Distributed Power Point • used by AccessGrid • working • free software Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  25. Globus Experience • Globus installation • Myrinet/PC cluster of II-UFRGS • second semester of 2001 • next steps • use with some academic applications - tests • evaluate the possibility of integration between our projects and Globus Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  26. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • An overview of main Brazilian initiatives • MultiCluster • GridGene • IC Grid • MyGrid • Probably it is not a complete list • There is also a proposal of a national Grid Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  27. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • MultiCluster • II/UFRGS • contact: Prof. Philippe O.A. Navaux • It aims to efficiently integrate different cluster-based architectures • Myrinet, SCI, Fast Ethernet, … Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  28. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • GridGene • UFRJ, LNCC/MCT, UFPB/Campina Grande • contact: Prof. Paulo Bisch • It aims to support • genome analysis • through development of parallel and distributed software for Grid environments • http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/procpar/hetnos/grid/papers/gridgene.pdf

  29. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • IC Grid • UFF • contact: Prof. Vinod Rebello • Creation of a mini-grid testbed • Design and development of grid-base middleware • http://www.ic.uff.br/~vefr/research/cluster.html Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  30. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • MyGrid • UFPB • contact: Prof. Walfredo Cirne • It provides a global execution environment • It is distributed as a free software • http://lula.dsc.ufpb.br/~walfredo/projetos/OpenGrid/ Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  31. Other Brazilian Grid Projects • Proposal: build a national Grid of Cenapads • Cenapad • HPC national (federal) center • offers HPC resources to application users • nowadays there are: • six CENAPADs (HPC centers) • a SINAPAD (integration of these centers) • This structure can be the starting point of a national Grid Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro

  32. More Grid Projects at Brazil Brazil / Cenapad Grid Lishep Grid Workshop - February 2002 -UERJ, Rio de Janeiro
