Vigne: executing easily and efficiently a wide range of distributed applications in grids
Résumé
Using grid resources to execute scientific applications requiring a large amount of computing power is attractive but not easy from the user's point of view. Vigne is a Grid system designed to provide users with a simplified view of a grid. This paper presents a set of system services that allow to run a wide range of distributed applications in a simple and efficient manner. A running prototype has been implemented as a proof of concept and experiments on the Grid'5000 testbed show the efficiency of our approach.
