AMANDA -在生产中使用GRID的首次运行实验
AMANDA - first running experiment to use GRID in production
摘要:
网格技术正在不断发展。使用当前的网格工具包,如Globus工具包,可以建立虚拟组织。虽然这些工具包仍在开发中,并且没有提供所有功能,但它们现在已经可以用于为物理协作建立一个高效的计算环境,只需进行适度的工作。我们在本文中讨论使用这样的计算结构在两个运行的实验-AMANDA(AMANDA =南极μ子和中微子探测器阵列)中微子望远镜和D 0实验Tevatron,费米实验室。我们的方法的主要特点之一是,以避免重新编程的现有软件是基于几种编程语言(FORTRAN,C/C++,JAVA)。这是通过协作软件周围的软件层来实现的,这些软件层负责输入和输出、用户通知、运行作业的跟踪等。另一个重要方面是库依赖关系的解决方案,当用户在机器上运行自编译作业时,这些库没有安装。这些依赖关系也通过这些层解决。
英文摘要:
The Grid technologies are in ongoing development. Using current Grid toolkits like the Globus toolkit gives one the possibility to build up virtual organizations. Although these tookits are in still under development and do not feature all functionality, they can already now be used to set up an efficient computing environment for physics collaborations with only moderate work. We discuss in this paper the use of such a computing structure in two running experiments - the AMANDA (AMANDA = Antarctic muon and neutrino detector array) neutrino telescope and the D0 experiment at Tevatron, Fermilab. One of the main features of our approach is to avoid reprogramming of the existing software which is based on several programming languages (FORTRAN, C/C++, JAVA). This was realized with software layers around the collaboration software taking care about in- and output, user notification, tracking of running jobs, etc. A further important aspect is the resolution of library dependencies, which occur when a user runs self-compiled jobs on machines, where these libraries are not installed. These dependencies are also resolved with this layers.
