Abstract:

The current experiments in high energy physics (HEP) have a huge data rate. To convert the measured data, an enormous number of computing resources is needed and will further increase with upgraded and newer experiments. To fulfill the ever-growing demand the allocation of additional, potentially only temporary available non-HEP dedicated resources is important. These so-called opportunistic resources cannot only be used for analyses in general but are also well-suited to cover the typical unpredictable peak demands for computing resources. For both use cases, the temporary availability of the opportunistic resources requires a dynamic allocation, integration, and management, while their heterogeneity requires optimization to maintain high resource utilization by allocating best matching resources. To find the best matching resources which should be allocated is challenging due to the unpredictable submission behavior as well as an ever-changing mixture of workflows with different requirements.
Instead of predicting the best matching resource, we base our decisions on the utilization of resources. For this reason, we are developing the resource manager TARDIS (Transparent Adaptive Resource Dynamic Integration System) which manages and dynamically requests or releases resources. ... mehr
