Hi everyone, please find the agendas for the JSDL sessions attached below. We will have project presentations from those already working with JSDL in session 2, on Wed. 29th at 11:00, in the Michigan meeting room. Please come along and hear how JSDL is already being used in Grids. Cheers and take care, Ali -- ---------------------------------------------------- |epcc| - Ali Anjomshoaa EPCC, University of Edinburgh James Clerk Maxwell Building Mayfield Road E-mail: ali@epcc.ed.ac.uk Edinburgh EH9 3JZ Phone: + 44 (0) 131 651 3388 United Kingdom Fax: + 44 (0) 131 650 6555 ------------------------------------------------------------- JSDL #1: ======== - Introductions - Overview of the spec and schema - Scope for JSDL 1.0 JSDL #2: ======== - Project presentations and use cases (see abstracts below) - GridSAM (OMII) - NAREGI - HPCEuropa - UniGrids JSDL #3: ======== - Public comment and open discussion JSDL #4: ======== - Post v1.0 tracker and a look ahead.

GridSAM consumes a JSDL document, supplied through a Web Service interface, and converts this to an underlying DRM format. It submits an appropriate job to the underlying DRM submission system through DRM plug-ins. GridSAM maps file staging to the underlying DRM or provides alternative staging if the underlying DRM cannot perform this. Currently DRM plug-ins are available for Condor, Globus, SSH submission and local job forking. - NAREGI "An experimental implementation of a JSDL based job submission system" NAREGI has developed an experimental implementation of a JSDL based job submission system. In this presentation, we will explain about the target use case, the architecture, how JSDL is used, and post V1 discussion, then show demonstration. - HPCEuropa "HPC-Europa and JSDL" HPC-Europa is a big project which aims to provide advanced computational services in an integrated way to the European research community. One of project's goals is to build the Single Point of Access to resources of European HPC centers. HPC-Europa centers use various Grid middleware including UNICORE, GRIA middleware, and three Grid schedulers based on the Globus Toolkit: GRMS, eNANOS, and JOSH. Each of these systems uses its own interface and job description language. Therefore we decided to design a uniform job submission interface based on JSDL. User requests are translated dynamically to the site-specific interfaces by the Single Point of Access portal. In this presentation we show a subset of JSDL that was used to build a uniform job submission interface and extensions which have been added. Methods for adaptation of portlets' GUI to the functionality of grid job submission services are presented, too. We also discuss advantages as well as problems concerning use of JSDL in the HPC-Europa project. - UniGrids "UniGrids and JSDL" The UniGrids project uses JSDL at a number of critical locations within the Unicore/GS architecture. The uses within the basic Atomic Service layer and within the Resource Broker shall be outlined, as well as a client-side library for translating simple legacy UNICORE workflows into JSDL.
