Developing Grid-Aware Applications with DRMAA on Globus-Based Grids

In spite of the great research effort made in Grid technology in the last years, application development and execution in the Grid continue requiring a high level of expertise due to its complex and dynamic nature. The Distributed Resource Management Application API (DRMAA) has been proposed to aid the rapid development and distribution of applications across the Grid. In this paper we present the first implementation of the DRMAA standard on a Globus-based testbed, and show its suitability to express typical scientific applications. The DRMAA routines have been implemented using the functionality provided by the GridW ay framework.
