In one table, you mix local batch schedulers, cluster management
software, grid middleware and a few miscellaneous other products
mixed in. Except that this quite loosely-related collection of
software often gets used by some of the same users, and the items are
sometimes applied in clusters, these items in principle have quite
different roles to play in management of a computing infrastructure,
and I am not sure that I see the value of one big collection.
You may want to replace this with pointers to the web sites of
different products grouped by approximate function, and start from
there. Beyond this, most of the middleware that you mentioned often
lives in a context such as a virtual organization or a grid.
Starting points for grid projects such as Open Science Grid,
Teragrid, Worldwide LHC Computing Grid, etc. would be possible to
add; or you could focus on infrastrcture-building toolkits such as
the Virtual Data Toolkit, etc.
I am not sure that this page will get a lot of use.

Hi,
As you probably now, their exist many different software to control
cluster and they all have different feature. I don't have found any
web site that compare them to see it they have the feature that are
needed. I think that such a web page will be very useful for many
people. Checking all of them individually is too much time consuming.
So I created a wikipedia page for this. Filling it myself for all the
software is very time consuming as I don't know each software.
So I ask your help to fill the information for your software. This
should not take too much of your time as you already know many of the
answer. Event if you can answer only some questionm this will be very
useful for every body.
Thanks for your help in creating this web page. If you have any
question/comment don't hesitate. Also, I have probably overlooked
many
interesting comparison feature, if you think of some don't
hesitate to
let me know or make the modification yourself.
