May 2004 N1TM Grid Engine 6 Features and Capabilities Paulo Tibério Bulhões, Chansup Byun, Rick Castrapel, Omar Hassaine Science & Engineering, Grid Computing, Higher Ed
The N1 Grid Engine 6 software introduces a variety of new features and enhancements from its predecessor. This paper describes the most important features such as scalability and advanced scheduler functionality which includes resource reservation, urgencybased priorities, and throughput scheduling. Additionally, the paper will discuss the cluster queue configuration, the conformance with grid standards, monitoring and accounting tools, and potential benefits to N1 Grid Engine 6 users.
May 2004 Grid-Computing Architecture for Design Automation in Higher Education Joerg Schwarz Science & Engineering, Grid Computing, Higher Ed
Grid computing can help to drive down the cost for computing - but can it help to improve Engineering Education also? This technical Whitepaper shows how to build an Infrastructure for state-of-the-art Engineering Education and Research with Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools. Reference Implementations, configuration guides and sizing information give hands-on information to create scalable and cost effective infrastructure for teaching and research.
