11. APVT Grant – Science and Techology Agency Title:The optimal methods of GRID technology utilization for needs of computer simulations of selected problems from natural and technical sciences. P. J. Šafárik University, Košice Technical University, Košice Project objectives:The goal of this project is the design of the effective methods using GRID technology, the design of architectural and user oriented applications for computer simulations of the selected problems from natural and technical sciences. GRID 2004, 29.6.2004, Dubna, Russia

12. Project abstract • In the system's domain, the project is oriented for application compatibility preservation with internarional projects and for offering higher standards to the users. • In the software design's domain, it especially surveys on parametric problems and on some parallel problems with the aim to find optimal methods for their realization on grid. • The project bases on the accomplishments in the domain of grid computing: • own common testbed CassoGrid; • participation in the international project NorduGrid • and wide international co-operation. • The acquisition of this project will be: • the education of two aspirants, • verification and introduction of efficient software design methods to use for distributed data processingespecially for the naturalsciences's domain with ability to wider use.

13. Project objectives We will focus on an effective and reliable performance of the grid applications and administration of the resources which belong to the virtual organizations. We will concentrate on a design of system tools, which enable monitoring of an accessible computer capacity including solutions of possible problems, and tools necessary for a design of the applications which are oriented on the selected problems. We will analyze available program tools taking into account the specific demands of the target problems, to identify the best tools. In the case of problems we will resolve a missing functionality of these program tools. We will follow to remain compatible with these new solutions, to know and consecutively to exploit these new attributes to search the optimal design methods of selected application programs. We will take into account the complementary solutions based on virtual organizations in a cooperation with the P2P (peer-to-peer) approach. GRID 2004, 29.6.2004, Dubna, Russia

14. Description of objectives • A selection and design of linguistics tools to describe the parallel algorithms and choice of an appropriate formalism for automatization of the complex computer tasks for the applications domains solved in a frame of this project. • Implementation of a program suite suitable for controlling of computer simulations and visualization of the obtained results (animation and representation of multidimensional areas). • A suggestionof the methods and techniques with an effort to model and to simulate the real dynamical systems using grids. These tasks will be supported by the results from the numerical mathematics group • Solutions based on the properties of neuron networks and development of corresponding software packages for grid. Generally individual components of these task has a  parametric character, from this reason a utilization of the grid technology seems to be very perspective and well founded . • Usingthe user oriented programs we will solve the problems from high energy physics, statistical physics molecular dynamics and complex systems. We will concentrate on an effective parallel processing of avalanche like phenomena which belong to the problems with an undetermined computing complexity in 2D. GRID 2004, 29.6.2004, Dubna, Russia

15. Usingthe user oriented programs we will solve the problems from high energy physics, statistical physics molecular dynamics and complex systems. We will concentrate on an effective parallel processing of avalanche like phenomena which belong to the problems with an undetermined computing complexity in 2D. The tasks without an optimal pararelization are understand as the parametric tasks. • Development of an application software for Monte Carlo simulations, processing and analysis of extremely enormous volume of experimental data from  high energy physics limited by an orientation on an international collaboration with these instructions: CERN (Švajčiarsko), Forschungszentrum Julich (Nemecko) a BNL (USA). • In molecular dynamics we will focus on an implementation of the parallel program PROTOMOL (american-norwegian software project) and development of an appropriate user interface into the grid. The program enables multiprocessor processing with utilization of MPI protocol. GRID 2004, 29.6.2004, Dubna, Russia

16. Characteristics of the results • The result of the project will be a system and program compatibility of existing domestic grid solutions with international standards and grids. • The optimal methods of a transition of current program packages into the grid will be verified. The possibility of development new applications based on the grid properties will be examined too. • The optimal development methods for user oriented programs from natural and technical sciences will be suggested. • The task solutions which are not easy today because their need extreme computational resources will be resolved.
