Abstract

DEISA is a consortium of leading national supercomputing centers that is building and operating a persistent distributed supercomputing environment with continental scope in Europe. To integrate their resources, the DEISA partners have adopted the most advanced middleware and applications currently available. The consortium decided to embrace UNICORE as a job submission interface for the DEISA grid infrastructure. UNICORE is the foremost European grid technology able to hide the complexity of the underlying resources providing a user-friendly graphical user interface for job submission. This paper presents the deployment solution and strategies implemented by DEISA in order to adapt UNICORE for their infrastructure.
