IDGF in a nutshellIDGF in a nutshell

Objectives– Build a community of those people who are

interested in any form of desktop grids including

• Different technology developers and users (BOINC, Condor, XtremWeb, OurGrid, etc.)

• Service grid providers who would like to extend their resources with DG resources

• Scientists who want to build campus grid

– Create forum for this community

Different type of communities can get different kind of benefits

In order to understand the potential benefits first we summarize the potential business models of using DG systems

Benefit for new volunteer BOINC Benefit for new volunteer BOINC systemssystems

It takes several years until a new volunteer BOINC system can collect substantial number of resources

IDGF will give access to the large set of SG VO resources that were created in the EDGeS and later in the DEGISCO project

It contains ~2000 computers

Attracting more participants for Attracting more participants for volunteer desktop gridsvolunteer desktop grids

EDGI introduces a new architecture where desktop grids (BOINC, XtremWeb) can be extended with cloud resources for QoS

However, in order to get cloud resources the user needs credits

In order to collect credit either the user or her organization should provide resources for volunteer DGs belonging to IDGF

If you joined to IDGF those who would like to earn more credit will support your DG system

Benefits for those who would like to Benefits for those who would like to build a campus gridbuild a campus grid

There are several technologies (BOINC, Condor, OurGrid, XtremWeb, etc.) to build a campus grid

IDGF provides forum to– discuss and compare these technologies– make them popular to the scientific communities– elaborate the interconnection methods of campus grids built

on these technologies IDGF provides support to build the campus grid

– Technology selection support– Installation, configuration and testing support– User interface (e.g. portal) provision support– Application porting support

23EDGI NA2 20/04/23 23

Benefits for those who would like to Benefits for those who would like to port applications to DG systemsport applications to DG systems

Porting applications to volunteer DG is not easy IDGF members have expertise in this field and can

provide support for newcomers– Application porting technology selection support– Providing best practice case studies of application porting– Assistance in porting an application

Benefits for those who would like to Benefits for those who would like to extend SG VO with DGextend SG VO with DG

The EDGI business model and architecture is a good example how to extend a SG VO with DGs

Small SG VOs can get additional resources for parameter sweep (PS) applications

IDGF members have expertise in this field IDGF provides support to extend a SG VO with DGs

– Technology selection support– Installation, configuration and testing support– User interface (e.g. portal) provision support– Application porting support

28EDGI NA2 20/04/23 28

Balanced usage of SG and DG systems Balanced usage of SG and DG systems within a countrywithin a country

With the technology provided by EDGI and DEGISCO processing load can be transferred towards the less loaded systems– Overloaded SGs can transfer jobs to DGs– Overloaded DGs can transfer WUs to SGs

29EDGI NA2 20/04/23 29

Benefit for technology and application Benefit for technology and application developer organizations of the European developer organizations of the European Chapter Chapter

IDGF will participate in FP7 and FP8 EU projects The work allocated for IDGF in these projects will be

distributed among the member organizations of the European Chapter

To take IDGF as partner in EU projects will be attractive since IDGF will represent a large community (see the HealthGrid experience)

30EDGI NA2 20/04/23 30

ConclusionsConclusions

Joining IDGF is worth for both SG and DG community members

DG community members can extend their DG with SG resources

SG community members can extend their SG VO with DG resources

Both communities can get application porting support

IDGF can significantly impact the community and can attract additional financial resources
