Congratulations, great work ! I would be interested in the version of the Java binding / Sun Java library you relied on. I would also kindly ask you to include the testsuite version number in your README file. This is simply reasoned by the fact that the testsuite is far from being perfect. Therefore, this information might help in determining compatibility issues. Again, we are happy to see such a complete adoption of the standard. If you have some time left, it would be really great to have an according experience report for the GridWay development. Thank you and best regards, Peter. Ignacio Martín Llorente schrieb:
Dear friends,
The new development release of the GridWay meta-scheduler is available for download under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0 (see the full announcement below).
GridWay now provides full support for DRMAA to develop distributed applications (C and JAVA bindings) on a grid consisting of distinct computing platforms (SGE, PBS, LSF…) managed by Globus services. DRMAA C implementation passes the DRMAA compliance testsuite and DRMAA JAVA implementation has been tested with the howtos provided by Sun Microsystems.
Please visit the DRMAA References and the Application Developer Guide at http://www.gridway.org/guides.php
Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any additional information.
Sincerely,
Ignacio M. Llorente

NEW DEVELOPMENT RELEASE (4.7.0) OF THE GRIDWAY META-SCHEDULER
The GridWay team is pleased to announce that a new development release (4.7.0) of the GridWay meta-scheduler is available for download under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0.
ABOUT THE GRIDWAY META-SCHEDULER:
GridWay, on top of Globus services, enables large-scale, secure, reliable and efficient sharing of computing resources (clusters, computing farms, servers, supercomputers...), managed by different DRM (distributed resource management) systems, such as PBS, SGE, LSF, Condor..., within a single organization (enterprise grid) or scattered across several administrative domains (partner or supply-chain grid). GridWay is an open-source meta-scheduling technology that provides end users and application developers with a scheduling framework similar to that found on local DRM systems, allowing to submit, monitor, synchronize and control jobs by means of a DRM-like CLI (gwsubmit, gwwait, gwcancel, gwkill...) and the DRMAA API (GGF standard).
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Easy deployment and adaptability - Improved efficiency and robustness - Advanced scheduling capabilities, such as dynamic discovery & selection, opportunistic migration, performance slowdown detection and support for self-adaptive applications. - Information drivers to interface MDS2 (MDS schema), MDS2 (Glue schema) and MDS4 - Execution drivers to interface pre-WS GRAM and WS GRAM (even both simultaneously) - Transfer drivers to interface GridFTP and RFT. - Full support for DRMAA (GGF standard) to develop distributed applications (C and JAVA bindings). - Extended DRM-like commands to submit, monitor, synchronize and control jobs; and monitor grid resources - Extended documentation and improved support forum
