GSoC 2007 : Globus/Condor package Application accepted.

My proposal for GSoC 2007 for Oscar is Accepted and for this summer I would be working on it. Since I had a good exposure to Grid Technologies while I work with Gridone project at BITS Pilani CSD,

Abstract :

Grid Computing — Globus
Cluster — OSCAR
High Throughput Computing — Condor

Clusters,Grid and high throughput computing projects(condor) are
projects that help setting up computing infrastructures which are of
importance. Clusters ,Beowulf, used to be isolated from other emerging
technologies like Grid because of many reasons importantly ease of
deployment and seamless integration.

Grid software like globus have inherent support for clusters and can
be used easily with same grid interface. Today many deployments
specially in University there exists mixed environments.

Globus/Condor package will provide easy installation and configuration of those two software of top of clusters resources.

I will be mentored by an active Oscar developer DongInn Kim.

Oscar is a simple software which can be used fairly easily to depoly a working beowulf class supercomputers (Clusters) on supported linux distribution like Fedora,RedHat,SUSE and many

All updates regarding the project will be available at tag/oscar

I would like to thanks whole Oscar Community for such a great software ,Google for provide Summer of Code platform and to my teachers who guided me throughout my learning.

Planning to shift to Suse

I just liked it, I did not miss anything in Novell Suse compared to Fedora Core, SLED 10 is the box I am using and daily  my urge to make it default at my home computer increases.

I am not used to do install the easy way but Yast was real good, I am running almost everything I need to use and loving it.

It is not yet time to compare it in v/s fashion but will do it sometime later.

I also discovered a security bug,more on it when it is fixed
