Abstract

InteGrade is an object-oriented grid middleware infrastructure whose goal is to leverage existing computational resources in organizations. Rather than relying on dedicated hardware such as reserved clusters, InteGrade focuses on using desktops in users' offices, machines in computer laboratories, shared workstations, as well as dedicated clusters. In this paper, we describe the support for the execution of highly coupled parallel applications on top of InteGrade. The paper describes the implementation of the middleware to support BSP parallel applications (with global synchronization points), and presents experimental results.
