Hi, Joel has told me that 'schemas.ggf.org' is now functional. The jsdl schemas are now available online as - http://schemas.ggf.org/jsdl/2005/11/jsdl - http://schemas.ggf.org/jsdl/2005/11/jsdl-posix Thanks to Joel and the OGF team that made this happen. And also, of course, to the authors of GFD.58/GFD.84. -- Andreas Savva

Jsdl-Posix Application Query
by Nicholas Loulloudes 21 Feb '07

21 Feb '07

Hello, In the JSDL Schema (Page 46, Paragraph: 8.1.1.1) it specifies that a POSIX style application MUST appear only once if it is present as a sub-element of the JSDL Application element. If a POSIX style application DOES NOT appear under the JSDL Application Element, can it appear more than once in a JSDL file? If yes, what is the maximum number of occurrences? Thank you in advance. -- _________________________________________________ Nicholas Loulloudes High Performance Computing Systems Laboratory (HPCL) Department of Computer Science, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus Tel: +357-22892700 Fax: +357-22892701 Email: loulloudes.n(a)cs.ucy.ac.cy

application profile proliferation
by Joseph Bester 21 Feb '07

21 Feb '07

I've been reviewing JSDL, the BES HPC Application Profile, and JSDL Parallel/SPMD profile to see how they can be used with Globus GRAM execution service. One concern I have is the way these various application profiles are redefining the same basic functionality (executable, arguments, environment, etc), either in their own namespaces or importing from the jsdl-posix namespace, sometimes with different behavior/features. It's not clear to me how (if at all) these are to be/can be composed. The feature set of GRAM seems to span these profiles: some (but not all) of the limits from POSIXApplication are relevant, as is the SPMD functionality of specifying the various process counts and something like SPMDVariation. There is also a small amount of scheduler- specific and site-specific extensions that GRAM might have to deal with. Do other groups have plans for implementing more than one of these profiles, and what approaches are you considering for doing so? joe

OGSA-DMI-WG: I will not be able to host the scheduled conference call this week Wednesday. Unless anybody else can back me up, the call will be cancelled. JSDL-WG: Regarding the Parameter Sweep proposed extension. Ali is briefed and will advance further without me for the time being. Sorry for any inconvenience.
