Students, Former students (now in France, Canada, Japan, Italia,….) • 15 trainees/year x 2 years.

  12. Our Membership – at 5th anniversary

  13. Prior experience in HPC/Grid Middleware and Applications • Parallel computing and cluster technology • In the early stage, we are focused on a cheap solution for high performance computing using PC-based cluster. • Parallel computing and cluster environments: PVM, MPI, OpenMP, CONDOR, and PBS • Several researches on scheduling, fault tolerance and single system image. • Typical research topics are: data-intensive computing, failure-aware workflow scheduling. • Some open-source cluster middlewares: BKlusware, BKFaultTolerance, BKOSSIC (Bach Khoa Open Single System Image Cluster) for cluster community in Vietnam

  14. Prior experience in HPC/Grid Middleware and Applications (2) • Grid Computing • Grid environments: Globus Toolkit and G-Lite. • Typical research topics are: grid scheduler, agent-based approaches for grid computing, semantic grid resource specification. • An open-source Grid middleware, called BKGrid, will be used in the National VN-Grid research project (2007-2009).

  15. Applications • In collaboration with Institute of Meteorology and Hydraulics; Department of Meteorology and Oceanography, Hanoi National University, Vietnam • Building a Data Grid, Grid Portal for sharing climate data among Weather Forecast centers in Vietnam • In collaboration with Hanoi Pharmaceutical University, Vietnam • Applying Grid Computing for discovering new medicine based on DOCKing • in collaboration with Institute of Engineering Physics, HUT, Vietnam • Molecular Dynamic Simulation in Engineering Physics 10/13/2014 15

  16. Domestic collaborations • VN-Grid National Research Project 2007-2009 partners: Institute of Information Technology (IOIT) Hanoi, IOIT HCM City, Hanoi National University, LeQuyDon Engineering University. • Grid Special Interest Group in VINAREN organization (Vietnam Research Education Network) • HCM City University of Technology • HUT Institutions: School of Information Technology, Library and Information Network Center.

  17. International collaborations • National Center of High Performance Computing, Taipei, Taiwan (since 2006) • Center for Development of Advanced Computing, India (Since 2003. There will be a SuperComputer at HPC-HUT as grant of India to Vietnam soon) • Doson Grid School • TEIN-2 Project (HUT is NOC-VN and NOC-HN) • Asia Pacific Advanced Networking (APAN)

  18. Brief statement of Rationale • Contribution of computing resource (initial configuration) • Head node: 2 x 1Ghz, 512Mb RAM • Computing nodes: 3 x (3.0Ghz, 1Gb RAM) • Storage capacity: 150Gb • Bandwidth • 6Mb via commercial internet • 135Mb via TEIN-2

  19. Brief statement of Rationale • Involvement in Grid Middleware development • Fault tolerance module • Single System Image for Grid • Economic-based scheduler • Semantic grid resource discovery. • Involvement in Grid Application development • Geo-Grid for Disaster Management. • Bio-Grid for Docking.

  20. Brief statement of Rationale • Involvement in PRAGMA activities • Attending the PRAGMA workshops regularly • Hosting a PRAGMA workshop in the future • Bridging PRAGMA collaboration to other GC/HPC institutions in Vietnam.

  21. Indication of Intentions • We strongly believe that joining PRAGMA would give us a precious opportunity for: • Receiving the state-of-the-art grid technology • A much better computational environment for experimenting and conducting grid applications • What can we contribute to promoting life science HPC and GC communities • Participation to development of grid applications in life science for Vietnam and the region • Sharing knowledge and experiments on deploying grid technologies in related areas • Computing resource: Supercomputer from C-DAC (128 Processors, 2TFlops, 256 GB RAM, 36TB HDD).
