OptimalGrid -- autonomic computing on the Grid (IBM developerWorks)
[Posted June 18, 2003 by cook]
IBM's developerWorks has
an article on the OptimalGrid project.
"
In this article, we introduce OptimalGrid, a research prototype from grid researchers at the IBM Almaden Research Center. OptimalGrid is middleware that aims to simplify creating and managing large-scale, connected, parallel grid applications. It optimizes performance and includes autonomic grid functionality. You don't need to be a grid infrastructure expert to use it. You supply the code that represents your basic problem algorithm, and OptimalGrid manages everything else -- problem partitioning, problem piece deployment, runtime management, dynamic level of parallelism, dynamic load balancing, and even system fault tolerance and recovery."
