Abstract

Finite Element Method (FEM)-based scientific numerical simulations are often computing-extensive and Grid platform can speed up the simulation progress significantly. However, the coupling of FEM-based simulation tasks with Grid platform isn't so straightforward. Adopting the Service-oriented Architecture (SOA), we develop a General Service-oriented Grid Computing Platform for FEM-based Simulations (GSGCP-FEM). GSGCP-FEM provides users with the ability to make a general FEM-based simulation to be service-oriented. Basing on the services provided by GSGCP-FEM and Grid middleware, users can deploy new scientific simulation applications easily. In this paper, we explain the design, architecture, and implementation of GSGCP-FEM in detail. We also deploy two practical applications based on GSGCP-FEM to demonstrate its usefulness.
