As a result of the ClusterGrid project a significant high-performance computing Grid infrastructure has been created in Hungary. The ClusterGrid currently connects about 600 PCs of 13 higher educational institutions. The system constantly grows and the final goal is to connect more than 2000 PCs by the end of 2004. Although the ClusterGridalready works as a regular infrastructure service it raises several problems to be solved.
The basic goal of the project is to solve the problems by providing new functions for the ClusterGrid like checkpoint handling gor PVM and MPI programs, Grid brokering, workflow management, high-level user interfaces, Grid monitoring, handling large data files and databases in the Grid, accounting system support, application of VPN and IPv6 technologies. In order to provide these new features we will adapt the results of the Hungarian SuperGrid projects.
The second goal of the project is to develop six different scientific and engineering applications for the CLusterGrid as a demonstration now to exploit the ClusterGrid infrastructure in order to solve complex scientific problems.
