  1. 1st HellasGrid User Forum Jan 10 - 11, 2008 Remote Instrumentation on the Grid Current experience and future steps on a European Level Costas Kotsokalis Greek Research and Technology Network / GRNET S.A.

  2. Overview • Remote Instrumentation (RI) concepts • RI and the Grid • RI Services requirements • GRIDCC results • RINGrid results • DORII goals Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  3. Remote Instrumentation • Provides remote access to rare and/or expensive equipment • Accelerators, telescopes, anything with an Application Programming Interface (API) • Promotes science in poorer areas • Scientists avoid expensive trips • Collaboration is enhanced, scientists around the world can work together Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  4. Remote Instrumentation Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  5. RI and the Grid • Uniform mechanisms • Authentication, Authorization, Accounting • Monitoring • Scheduling • SOA-based approach • Applications as composed services • Integration w/ computing, storage • Optimized resource selection Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  6. RI and the Grid • Portal-based access • Enhances scientist communication, collaboration • Allows shared access •  implements virtual control rooms Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  7. RI and the Grid The Grid: Network, Instruments, Storage, Computing, Access portal Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  8. RI Services (RIS) requirements • QoS guarantees from the M/W • Real-time access to instruments • Safety reasons • Data transfer among composed services (applications) • Advance reservation • Workflow management (app modeling) Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  9. RI Services (RIS) requirements • Challenging visualization needs • Interactivity (M/W & access interfaces) • Instruments as resources • Generic interfaces • …yet offering complete functionality Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  10. Grid-enabled Remote Instrumentation with Distributed Control and Computation GRIDCC results • 09/2004 - 08/2007 • Loose guarantees (based on service statistical profiles) • Strict guarantees (based on reservations) • Workflow management • Service composition w/ QoS modelling • Addresses wf-wide QoS concerns Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  11. Grid-enabled Remote Instrumentation with Distributed Control and Computation GRIDCC results • Instruments abstraction (Instrument Element a la CE, SE) • Generic steering interface: Init, Set, Get, Exec • …vs CIMA • Multi-purpose Collaborative Environment • http://www.gridcc.org/ Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  12. Remote Instrumentation in Next-Generation Grids RINGrid results • 10/2006 - 03/2008 • Design study • User requirements, Instrument requirements • Large survey complete • Current relevant technologies review • Future and emerging relevant technologies review Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  13. Remote Instrumentation in Next-Generation Grids RINGrid results • Prototype: Small-scale experimentation with users • RISGE-RG Open Grid Forum group • Expected final result: OGSA extension to support Instruments on the Grid • Use cases  Requirements  Capabilities • http://www.ringrid.eu/ Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  14. Deployment Of Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure Outlook on DORII • 02/2008 - 07/2010 • Will build on the results of • GRIDCC • RINGrid • gEclipse • Grid-enabled Eclipse-based interface for Grid access • Int.Eu.Grid • M/W for interactivity on the Grid Remote Instrumentation on the Grid

  15. Deployment Of Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure Outlook on DORII • Expected major results • Consolidated, self-contained M/W for Instrumentation grids • A production-level infrastructure to support pre-selected application communities • Operational guidelines specific to Instrumentation grids • RISGE-RG OGF group continuation • Goal: WG for an OGSA instrumentation profile Remote Instrumentation on the Grid
