Grid[Way]作业模板管理器，用于参数扫描的工具
The Grid[Way] Job Template Manager, a tool for parameter sweeping
摘要：
参数扫描是计算科学中广泛使用的一种算法技术。它特别适合于高吞吐量计算，因为评估参数空间的作业是松散耦合或独立的。提出了一种工具，它集成了建模的参数研究与控制的工作在一个分布式体系结构。主要任务是方便创建和删除作业模板，这些模板是描述要运行的作业的元素。额外的功能依赖于GridWay Metasloger，它充当作业提交和控制的中间件层。它支持有趣的功能，如多维扫描空间，参数通配符，范围的功能评估，值跳过和作业模板自动识别。由于作业模板和相应作业状态的系统化记录，使用此工具可提高参数扫描研究的可靠性。此外，它还简化了目标应用程序到网格的移植，减少了所需的时间和工作量。
英文摘要：
Parameter sweeping is a widely used algorithmic technique in computational science. It is specially suited for high-throughput computing since the jobs evaluating the parameter space are loosely coupled or independent. A tool that integrates the modeling of a parameter study with the control of jobs in a distributed architecture is presented. The main task is to facilitate the creation and deletion of job templates, which are the elements describing the jobs to be run. Extra functionality relies upon the GridWay Metascheduler, acting as the middleware layer for job submission and control. It supports interesting features like multi-dimensional sweeping space, wildcarding of parameters, functional evaluation of ranges, value-skipping and job template automatic indexation. The use of this tool increases the reliability of the parameter sweep study thanks to the systematic bookkeping of job templates and respective job statuses. Furthermore, it simplifies the porting of the target application to the grid reducing the required amount of time and effort.
