Re: [gt-user] How to distribute problems to multiple resources (computers)?

It seems that GT5 users are too smart to need such a documentation. Or may be that I should ask in the gt-dev instead (although I think this is more of a gt-user sort of discussion). Here is my understanding of how GT5 should be set-up:* a tool, outside of GT5's bundle, should be used to register t

Is there any documentation that describes how to construct a complete grid system using GT5? On 11/19/2012 at 6:41 PM, "john alexander sanabria ordonez" wrote:Well, GRAM interfaces with local batch schedulers such as SGE, Condor, PBS and so on. In that context, GRAM hides details concerning with

Interesting. I thought that's the main reason why anyone would need a grid platform: to distribute problems to multiple computers. If GT5 is not doing that, then what is it doing? The quote below is from the documentation of GT5.2.2[1]:"The Grid Resource Allocation and Management (GRAM5) component

Greetings GT community, Suppose that a pool of computers are able to donate their idle CPU time, how can a problem (i.e. an piece of code) get executed in them in a distributed manner? For example, when I use the command globus-job-submit, or globus-job-run, how will my local machine know where s

Greetings GT comunity, I have read the OGSA specification, and as far as I understand that GT is a reference implementation of OGSA. However, I find it difficult to accurately map the OGSA services to the tools and services that are provided by GT. For example, let's pick GRAM5. Is there any page i
