NA4 Progress PSC06Istanbul, 7-8 December 2009 Cevat Sener Dept. of Computer Engineering METU, Ankara sener@ceng.metu.edu.tr The SEE-GRID-SCI initiative is co-funded by the European Commission under the FP7 Research Infrastructures contract no. 211338
Activities • NA4.1 Study the Grid applications • NA4.2 Adapt Grid applications • NA4.3 Support the deployed applications • NA4.4 Assess applications Grid usage and take-up
Deliverables • DNA4.1 Target applications analysis • DNA4.2 Application deployment and support • DNA4.3 Porting guidelines for target scientific fields • DNA4.4 User community engagement and applications assessment
Gridification Status • Some more deployed in the last quarter – But not all! • Applications generally going well. • Some problems with CHERS • Its ASG team: Florin Pop and Emanouil Atanassov, in addition to Neki Frasheri • RO team is also ready for the support • Details shall be covered within the VO sessions.
Web Pages / Wiki • All applications are supposed to have a web page or a wiki section with • Scientific model implemented • User documentation • Application Service usage – In case of a separate web page, there should be a link from the wiki • Many applications has improved their page/wiki section • However, some tend to postpone improving the content on the web till when their applications become fully-ready.
Web Pages / Wiki • Especially, MCSAES, CHERS, MSACM, MSERRHSA, CCIAQ, WRF-ARW and MDSSP-WA should improve asap. – But, all need to check considering the given list on the previous slide • ROMS has a web page, but no link from its wiki section
Application Dissemination • Submissions to UF by most of the applications – except MSERRHSA and ROMS ? • Contributions to the VO training sessions • Applications prefer not to submit to iSGTW before their applications are fully-developed. • List of scientific events & journals to be announced (kept updated) by the VO Leaders & Scientific Representatives • Only by Seismo VO, so far, at http://erciyes.cmpe.boun.edu.tr/seegridsci/scipub • Number of publications from all three VOs
Application Accounting VOMS Groups • Seismology VO → OK • Meteorology VO → OK • Environmental VO • No VOMS group for CHERS • GreenView has only HU/App/Greenview but no RO/App/Greenview group – Instead there exist RO/App/ESIP?
Application Accounting Number of Jobs
Application Accounting Elapsed Time
Application Accounting • Other applications not seen on the output • Their developers not using the VOMS properly on submissions? • Not yet implemented on the accounting portal? • Or ? • Any problem? • Total of applications << VO figures • Only in November there are 498 recorded submissions with VOMS role, but overall total for SRA jobs is only 17 according to portal (927 jobs from TR-03-METU listed in Seismo VO – almost all should belong to SRA). • Portal claims that there are 12 submissions from AM and 3 from RO, but they are collaborating to SRA. – Need to be figured out.
GENESI-DR Interaction • At EGEE'09 Dorian Gorgan participated to a meeting with GENESI-DR representative Roberto Cossu. • Proposed the setting up of a pilot data repository for the development tasks of the related international projects • He was to attend the GENESI-DR Workshop on "Earth observation data policy" at Villafranca on 04.12.09 • To present the position and requirements • To iterate the proposal for the pilot data repository
DNA4.3 • Leading partner: RBI • Date of the deliverable: M20 (this December) • The goal of this deliverable: • Report the experience gained in the project by applications developers • Should be used to accelerate the migration of new applications to the grid • Focus will be on categorisation of porting issues for specific scientific fields
DNA4.3 – Plan • Collect contributions from the partners through SEEGRID wiki pages – till 10th December • Develop new/upgrade wiki pages for Gridification Guide http://wiki.egee-see.org/index.php/SG_Gridification_Guide • Two types of contributions: • Update and correct old wiki sections (1. - 5. section) • Fill-in new sections (6. - 8.) • From wiki pages extract contribution for the final deliverable • New wiki sections – the core of the DNA4.3 → main contributions are expected from this sections
DNA4.3 – Old Sections • Old wiki gridification guide sections should be updated • Job management • File Management and Access • Inter-job communication • Information service • Development Environments and Portals • Does not require lot of effort • Should be checked and if some changes occurred updated by contributors from SEE-GRID2
DNA4.3 – New Sections • New wiki gridification guide sections • Operational tools • Application Level Services • Targeted Scientific Fields • Environmental VO • Meteo VO • Seismology VO • Contributions are expected from the application developers • Detailed description of porting techniques, used tools and services, implementation details • Should be described job mgt, data mgt. Information service used, etc.. • Describe using of existing JRA1 AS/OT
DNA4.3 - Status • ToC finished - 22nd October 2009 • Wiki pages structure created - 1st December 2009 • Start collecting contributions - 1st December 2009 • Some partners has already sent their contributions: • IPB (WatG Browser) • SZTAKI (Workflows, CWRE, GSSVA, USGIME, NMMC3D)
Task NA4.4 Started in November • NA4.4 Assess applications Grid usage and take-up • Assesses and quantifies the applications usage of the infrastructure, and application take-up in the community [M19-M24] • Leader: RBI • Deliverable: DNA4.4 User community engagement and applications assessment [M24] • Lead beneficiary: RBI
Action • VOMS roles should be used properly when submitting jobs onto the eInfrastructure • List of scientific events and journals should be maintained by the Vos to guide the members. • Applications should be deployed in production as soon as possible, and they should be made available to the scientific community to attract potential users. • Web pages / Wiki sections should be completed.
New APs • Immediate: Contributions to DNA4.3 by 10.12.09 & Wiki updates by 31.12.09. • Work on REFS to increase success rate. • Investigate on getting seismic data from GE. • Seismo VO will complete development of EMSC interface. • CHERS should make use the of mechanisms/support offered like ASG team and RO team. • Revision/Improvement of UF papers by all application developers for submission to Earth Science Informatics special issue.
New APs • VO Leaders and all, especially deployed, applications should seriously work on • User community enlargement • Collaborations with other researchers, projects, applications • Scientific (most preferably,refereed) publications • Not only per-VO, but also per-application accounting figures need to be monitored and checked; any discrepancy should be reported. • The possibility of making use of RAS JRA1 AS within NA4 will be iterated; developers of RAS can provide a sample case to demonstrate its capabilities.
