CoreGRID: Network of Excellence
• Funded by European Commission (IST, 6th Framework)
– 8.2MEuro, for 4 years, started Sep 2004
• Goal: integrating the research of the major European groups working on Grids
– Currently 42 partner sites
• 6 Virtual Institutes
– Knowledge and Data Management
– Programming Models
– System Architecture
– Information and Monitoring Services
– Resource Management and Scheduling
– Problem Solving Environments, Tools and Systems

Functional Properties
What applications need to do:
• Access to compute resources, job spawning and scheduling
• Access to file and data resources• Communication between parallel and distributed
processes• Application monitoring and steering

Non-functional Properties
What else needs to be taken care of:
• Performance• Fault tolerance• Security and trust• Platform independence

Conclusions
• We identified a set of functional and non-functional properties for grid application runtime environments
• None of our systems currently addresses them all• Work in progress: – CoreGRID virtual institute on
Environments, Tools, and Systems – designing/building a generic grid platform
