- Abstract
-
This paper presents a hybrid resource management environment, operating on both application and system levels developed for minimizing the execution time of parallel applications with divisible workload on heterogeneous grid resources. The system is based on the adaptive workload balancing algorithm (AWLB) incorporated into the distributed analysis environment (DIANE) user-level scheduling (ULS) environment. The AWLB ensures optimal workload distribution based on the discovered application requirements and measured resource parameters. The ULS maintains the user-level resource pool, enables resource selection and controls the execution. We present the results of performance comparison of default self-scheduling used in DIANE with AWLB-based scheduling, evaluate dynamic resource pool and resource selection mechanisms, and examine dependencies of application performance on aggregate characteristics of selected resources and application profile.
