Session Program
Support to MPI and interactivity on gLite infrastructures
Proposed and accepted to EGEE’07, many thanks!
A direct objective: “Support users with MPI and interactivity requirements”
An strategic objective: “Find/discuss a framework for interoperability and added services on gLite infrastructures, in this case EGEE and int.EU.grid”
Morning:Brief introductionMPI support Resources for MPI jobs

Application Support
Discussing the Application with the developersDescription in terms of
Area of knowledge and status of the artResults expected and impact on the scientific communityUnderstanding the computational approach at the algorithmic level
Resources neededSoftware & Hardware & GRID Middleware
GRID added value Interactive environment Graphics & Visualization Quality of Service regarding network reliability
Support to MPI and interactivity on gLite infrastructures EGEE'07
Support to Environmental ApplicationsWater Quality in Reservoirs
Analysis of water quality in catchments using DYRESM (free to download software from the Centre of Water Research of the University of Western Australia)
One-dimensional Hydrologic and Ecologic analysis are possible Specially suited for multi-parametric job submissions Currently working with test data from Itoiz, Pamplona (Spain)

Support to Environmental Applications
• Applications Requirements
Reproducing the evolution of an evironmental observable in scales ranging from one day to several years.For daily forecasted observables (pollution) the simulation is only useful if it takes ~ hour to complete.Usually they require the input of meteorological data in real timeMorphological information about the landscape is introduced with the help of Geographical Information Systems (GIS)Interactive steering: see inmediately the response of the system to changing conditions (weather, antropic factors, etc…)Visualization is needed to provide Interactive steeringResources needed range from 1 CPU to order of 100 of them in parametric or parallel simulations
• Direct contact with users is essential to have results and models validated
with real experience.

Support to Environmental ApplicationsGeographical Information Systems (GIS)
Using Soil Moisture Distribution and Routing (SMDR) to simulate the evolution of water runoff areas in a watershed.
SMDR uses GRASS for image processing and visualization:Geographic Resources Analysis Support System
Free Software/Open Source GIS allowing data management,image processing, spatial modeling and data visualization
The objective is porting GRASS to int.EU.grid to profit from the parallel computing capabilities of MPI
GRASS is already ported in serial mode to the testbed Currently working on the parallelization of several computation
routines using MPI libraries

-if you are a Researcher who needs Parallel (MPI) and/or Interactivity
support-if you are a Resource Center and want
to offer Parallel (MPI) and/or Interactivity to your users, keeping
EGEE interoperability-or if simply you just like the project!
