  4. The Problem with Grid Simulations • Three decades of writing simulators in computer science→ writing the simulator is not the problem • The problem: getting from solution design to experimental results with an automated simulation tool • Experimental setup • Tool to generate realistic experimental setups • Experiment support for grid resource management • Tool to manage large numbers of related simulations • Performance • Not the simulation time (decades of optimizations there) • Tool proved to work with large simulations (number of resources, workload size, etc.)

  5. Outline • Problem Statement • The DGSim Framework • DGSim Validation • DGSim Examples • Future Work

  6. 2. The DGSim FrameworkName, Goal, and Challenges • DGSim = Delft Grid Simulator • Simulate various grid resource management architectures • Multi-cluster grids • Grids of grids (THE grid) • Challenges • Many types of architectures • Generating and replaying grid workloads • Management of the simulations • Many repetitions of a simulation for statistical relevance • Simulations with many parameters • Managing results (e.g., analysis tools) • Enabling collaborative experiments Two GRM architectures

  7. 2. The DGSim Framework Overview Discrete-EventSimulator

  8. 2. The DGSim Framework Model Details: Inter-Operation Architectures Independent Centralized Hybrid hierarchical/ decentralized Hierarchical Decentralized

  9. 2. The DGSim Framework Model Details: Resource Dynamics & Evolution • Resource dynamics • Short-term changes in resource availability status • Resource evolution • Long-term changes in number & … of resources A. Iosup, M. Jan, O. Sonmez, and D.H.J. Epema, On the Dynamic Resource Availability in Grids, IEEE/ACM Grid, 2007.

  10. 2. The DGSim Framework Workloads: Generation and Model(s) • Workload Generation • Generate synthetic workload with realistic characteristics • Iterative workload generation: incur specified load on a grid • Parallel jobs • Adapting the Lublin-Feitelson model to grids • Bags-of-Tasks: groups of independent single-processor tasks • Validated with seven long-term grid traces A.

  11. Outline • Problem Statement • The DGSim Framework • DGSim Validation • DGSim Examples • Future Work

  12. 3. DGSim ValidationFunctional Validation • Functional validation (simple scenario) • Workload = 100 jobs ct. size 10,000 arrive at t=0 • System: grid scheduler over one 10-resource clusterresource = 1 work unit/second, information delay = 0-3600s

  13. 3. DGSim ValidationReal vs. Simulated DAS-3 Multi-Cluster Grid • Simulator setup • Application: synthetic parallel, communication-intensive (all-gather) Measured: runtime for various configurations (co-allocation) • System: heterogeneous clusters, Koala co-allocating scheduler • Workload: 300 jobs, submitted over a period of 6 hours • All jobs submitted through central cluster gateways • Results • Scheduling algorithm leads to similar results in real and simulated environments → can use simulator for analyzing scheduling trends • Under-estimation of waiting time (failures lead to more contention)
