Motivation
Despite a dedicated SA3 activity to support MPI there still seem to be significant issues in uptake and satisfaction amongst the user communities. This VT
- Works with user communities and projects that use MPI resources (e.g. ITER, MAPPER, A&A, etc) to demonstrate that MPI can work successfully in EGI.
- Sets up a VO on EGI with sites committed to support MPI jobs.
- Improve the communication between MPI users and developers of MPI support within EGI SA3.
Output
The VT is expected to produce the following outputs:
- Materials (tutorials, white papers, etc) about successful use cases of MPI on EGI that can be used by new communities to use MPI on EGI.
- An MPI VO that provides:
- dedicated CPUs for MPI jobs
- MPI specific test probes can run on all sites using the VO Monitoring services of Ibergrid (EGI-InSPIRE VO Services group)
- accounting for MPI jobs
- user support
- Improved communication channels with MPI users
- The above set of resources and feedback to resource centers, user communities and technology providers on how to improve MPI within EGI.
