  1. Development of Virtual Supercomputer Service using Academic Network http://www.lpds.sztaki.hu/vss

  2. Partners • Co-ordinator: • MTA SZTAKI LPDS (Laboratory of Parallel and Distributed Systems) • Consortium members: • BUTE DCEIT (Department of Control Engineering and Information Technology) • BUTE CIT (Centre of Information Technology) • INNOTECH Ltd., Innovation Park of BUTE

  3. Background • Available solutions for high performance computinghave been changed significantly: • The dominance of traditionalsupercomputers decreased • Computer farms (clusters) consisting of general-purpose computers is gaining more and more interest • Growing bandwidth of WAN technologies • Hungarian academic computer network (operated by Office for National Information Infrastructure Development )

  4. Main goal:Virtual Supercomputer Service Efficient interconnection of geographically distributed computer farms • increase the available computational power (high performance computing) • more efficient utilisation of the computers(high throughput computing) Academic network

  5. Results- analysis, interconnection, development - • Analysis and comparison of different methods and tools used for the development of virtual supercomputers • GLOBUS • CONDOR • Successful interconnection of heterogeneous computer systems installed at different sites of academic institutes • Development and establishment of a virtual supercomputer-service

  6. Layers of virtual supercomputer service Computational intensive tasks Parallel Development PVM MW MPI Global job management Condor-G Middleware Globus Local job management Resources Condor Condor Condor Condor Clusters

  7. Results- pilot application, knowledge-centre, dissemination - • Public demonstration on the usability • pilot applications • Establishment of a national knowledge-centre • responsible for the distribution & sharing of the experiences • Dissemination of the results • 1st & 2nd US-Hungarian Workshop on Cluster and Grid Computing (Univ. of Wisconsin & Compaq, Hungary) • Seminar activity

  8. International relationships • European Grid Forum: participation in Cactus testbed • Collaboration with several supercomputing and research centres from the EU • Simulation: collision of black holes • Successful demonstration at Supercomputing 2000, Dallas • More information: http://www.cactuscode.org/Development/Egrid.html • GridLab (EU FP6) project from 2002 • Monitoring workpackage • More information: http://www.gridlab.org
