Abstract

We introduce a component software architecture designed for demanding grid computing environments that allows the optimal performance of the assembled component applications to be achieved. Performance over the assembled component application is maintained through inter-component static and dynamic optimisation techniques. Having defined an application through both its component task and data flow graphs we are able to use the associated performance models to support application level scheduling. By building grid aware applications through reusable interchangeable software components with integrated performance models we enable the automatic and optimal partitioning of an application across distributed computational resources.
