How to Build a High-Performance Compute Cluster for the Grid
Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-6374
- The success of large-scale multi-national projects like the forthcoming analysis of the LHC particle collision data at CERN relies to a great extent on the ability to efficiently utilize computing a management software (Datagrid, Globus, etc.), while the effective integration of computing nodes has been largely neglected up to now. This is the focus of our work. We present a framework for a high-performance cluster that can be used as a reliable computing node in the Grid. We outline the cluster architecture, the management of distributed data and the seamless intergration of the cluster into the Grid environment.
