  11. Instrument Instrumentation

  12. Device Virtualization Model Voltmeter • Parameters: Maximum Voltage, Minimum voltage • Attributes: measured Voltage • Commands: Perform a measure • Parameters hold configuration information • Attributes hold instrument variables • Control Model hold actions • XML Based Language to allow the device to describe itself Instrument Parameters Attributes Control Model XML Based Language

  13. Instrument Instrumentation • Crucial non-Functional Requirements: • Instruments could be order of 106 • Only authorized people should access to the instruments of a VO • The instrumentation is not a batch process like a job submission! Interactivity is mandatory IE lockInstruments unlokInstruments retrieveLoked getContexts getInstrumentManagers getInfo getIstance get/Set Parameters getCommands executeCommand getState getStateMachine getRemoteExecutionTime getOneWayCost getTotalMethodExecutionTime VIGS • A Distribute and hierarchic implementation is mandatory • the Security overhead should be negligible Instruments • We can divide the Instrumentation in 3 main parts: • The direct access to the Instruments • The advance instrument reservation (interaction with the Agreement Service (AS)) in order to achieve (hard) guarantees • The Possibility to predict the execution time of the instrumentation methods in a concurrent access (soft guarantees) Instrumentation method Documentation http://sadgw.lnl.infn.it:2002/IEFacade

  14. Instrument Element Architecture Access Control Manager Data Flow State Flow Error Flow Monitor Flow Control Flow Virtual Instrument Grid Service (VIGS) • The term Instrument Element describes a set of services that provide the needed interface and implementation that enables the remote control and monitoring of physical instruments. Instrument Element create() Inf & Mon Service Resource Service Problem Solver destroy() execute() Data Mover getState() Instrument Manager IMS Proxy Control Manager Data Collector Control Manager Event Processor FSM Engine Input Manager Resource Proxy Real Instruments

  15. Instrument Element Implementations Instrument Element Inf & Mon Service Resource Service Problem Solver Access Control Manager Data Mover Instrument Manager • The IE components are typically implemented into a fully equipped Machines (e.g. dual core cpus, large memory, large disks, etc). This is true for RS, IMS and PS. For IM (and DM) there are 2 possibilities, according to the application type: • IM implemented in a fully equipped machine • IM embedded into the instrument that should be controlled IMS RS IM IM IM IM Embedded Web Service

  16. Instrument Manager Instruments Instrument Manager Control Manager IMS Proxy Event Processor FSM Engine Data Collector Input Manager Resource Proxy Plug-in modules to interface to the instruments Customizable Control Flow Data Flow Monitor Flow State Flow Error Flow • IM is composed by 3 main components: • - Control Manager: • - Input Manager. It handles all the input events of the IM. These includes commands from GUIs or other IMs, • errors/state/log/monitor messages. • - Event Processor. It handles all the incoming message and decide where to send them. It has processing capability • - FSM. A finite state machine is implemented • - Resource Proxy. It handles all the outgoing connections with the resources. • - Data Collector. It get data from the controlled instruments and make them available to the data mover. A local storage of the data • is even foreseen. • - IMS Proxy. It receives error/state/log/monitor information from the controlled resources and forward them to IMS

  17. Resource Service Architecture Partition/Configuration retrieve methods Discovery Manager Available Resources Partition and Lock setting methods Subscribe Manager • The Resource Service (RS) handles all the resources of an IE and manages their partition (if any). • A resource can be any hardware or software component involved in the IE (instruments, Instrument Managers, IMS components) • RS stores the configuration data of the resources and download them to resource target when necessary • Resources can be discovered, allocated and queried. • It is the responsibility of the RS to check resource availability and contention with other active partitions when a resource is allocated for use. • A periodic scan of the registered resources keeps the configuration database up to date. • RS is interfaced to the WMS Partition Definitions RS Data Bases Configuration setting methods Partition&Lock Manager Configuration Definitions Discovery methods Configuration Manager

  18. Information and Monitor System (IMS) Instruments Instruments Instruments Instrument Manager Instrument Manager Instrument Manager • The Information and Monitor Service (IMS) collects messages and monitor data coming from GRID resources and supporting services and stores them in a database. There are several types of messages collected from the sub-systems. The messages are catalogued according to their type, severity level and timestamp. Data can be provided in numeric formats, histograms, tables and other forms. • The IMS collects and organizes the incoming information in a database and publishes it to subscribers. These subscribers can register for specific messages categorized by a number of selection criteria, such as timestamp, information source and severity level. Errors Log info Monitor State PUBLISHERS (Instruments nodes) SUBSCRIBERS

Problem Solver Pub/Sub On Line Analisys DB Data Mining Tools State Flow Error Flow Monitor Flow Algorithms evaluations : Rule Induction, Tree, Functions, Lazy, Clusters and Associative Step 2 Persistent information can be analyzed in order to extract knowledge

  20. Poviding QoS over Web Sevices Performing a remote method Invocation in a given amount of time: Deserialization Serialization Transmission t2 t0 t1 t3 Operation execution • Avg =f(Cpu, Inputsize, Outputsize, Algorithm, Key-Factor, net) • SDev =F(Cpu, Inputsize, Outputsize, Algorithm, Key-Factor, net) Processing Deserialization Transmission Serialization t8 t7 t6 t5 t4 Client side Network Service side Crucial Times are: t3-t0 One Way Cost t4-t0 Remote Execution Cost t7-t0 Total Method Execution Cost Cpu = machine HD + machine load (client and server side) Algorithm = method semantic Net = bandwidth + RTT Key-Factor = input value that change the method semantic Inputsize, Outputsize=effective type and dimension

  25. Fast Instrument Communication Channel

  26. Message Oriented Middleware Topic A • Subscribers Subscribe to a given Topic/Queue with a subscribe condition • Publisher publish message in asynchronous in a given Topic/Queue way with a given message condition • Publisher and subscribers can be part of the same program or in WAN distributed machines • JMS Provide a standard set of API that standardize this communication system • Many Commercial and academic implementation of this API exist in both C/C++ and Java (NaradaBrokering, Sun, IBM, SonicMQ etc etc ) Topic B Queue Q In Our Case: • Each instrument can be a data publisher or a data consumer • For more demanding application an instrument must send/receive data in a streaming way

  27. RMM-JMS • RMM-JMS is a JMS implementation on top of our high performance Reliable Multicast Messaging (RMM) layer which provides one-to-one, one-to-many data delivery or many-to-many data exchange, in a message-oriented middleware point-to-point or publish/subscribe fashion • The exceptional performance supports remote and distributed control and operation of scientific instruments such as sensors and probes • Multicast transport for publish/subscribe messaging: Supporting the JMS Topic-based messaging and API, with matching done at the IP multicast level. The transport is a Nack-based reliable multicast protocol. • Direct (broker- less) unicast for point-to-point messaging: JMS Queues are implemented over RMM queues. The transport is the TCP protocol. • Brokered unicast transport for publish/subscribe messaging. The broker receives messages from the producer in either unicast or multicast delivery mode, and sends the messages to the subscribers in either mode • broker serves as a bridge in a LAN-WAN-LAN configuration Main Contribution of IBM Haifa Research Lab (Israel)

  31. Standard Grid Interaction

  32. Data Mover Data Collector Data Collector Data Collector IM IM IM IE Web Service Interface: get_data() Data Mover SRM interface Instrument Resources • The task of this element is to get data from the “data collector” of the IM • Data can be accessed via: • Web service interface for generic data dump (e.g. slow storage, spy stream, etc.) • grid storage element (SE) and available CEs can access to the data via an SRM Interface • Http server and TCP communication for high performance had-hoc data transfer • The Data Mover exposes its methods to the IE web service and can be instrumented itself as an instrument.
