Hi Antonio,
I'm a researcher at the Brazilian National Laboratory for Scientific Computing (LNCC -- http://www.lncc.br), and also the executive secretary of the Brazilian National System for High-Performance Computing (SINAPAD -- http://www.lncc.br/sinapad). Very briefly, we use DRMAA specs in SINAPAD for providing APIs to scientific portals and we'd be quite interested in the OCCI-DRMAA initiative. I found some pointers to a draft specification, but I'm not allowed to get to them, even being registered in GridForge.
As the Redmine project page says, you can clone the repository with the specification document sources: git clone http://redmine.ogf.org/git/standards/applications-area/drmaa-wg/drmaav2-occi... Please note that this is a document under work. Furthermore, the OCCI-DRMAA standardization is currently suspended, since the OCCI guys need to improve at some points first. One example is the currently missing pagination support in OCCI. You find according comments in the TEX file.
Where can I get such draft so to evaluate its ideas' applicability in the SINAPAD context?
Read the current document, take nothing for granted, and come back with your ideas :) Beside that, what about DRMAAv2 support in your projects ? Any language bindings you need to have beside C and OCCI ? Best regards, Peter.
Thank you in advance for your attention.
Best regards, -- Antonio Tadeu Azevedo Gomes, DSc. http://www.lncc.br/~atagomes http://www.lncc.br/sinapad http://martin.lncc.br
