Session Type: Full-Day Seminar
This workshop on campus grids will walk participants through the setup of two different campus grid middlewares, offer examples of good grid applications, and provide access to open source grid middleware that attendees can use with institutional resources to deploy grids on their campuses.
Campus grids are little understood, and those who wish to deploy them often do not know the human and computing resources required. The goal of this seminar is to present campus grid computing from the point of view of someone who has deployed, maintained, and successfully managed a campus grid. Attendees will leave with an understanding of the logistical, technical, and physical requirements of building, deploying, and maintaining a campus-wide grid.
