SCALEA-G: A Unified Monitoring and Performance Analysis System for the Grid

Abstract. This paper describes SCALEA-G, a unified monitoring and performance analysis system for the Grid. SCALEA-G is implemented as a set of grid services based on the Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA). SCALEAG provides an infrastructure for conducting online monitoring and performance analysis of a variety of Grid services including computational and network resources, and Grid applications. Both push and pull models are supported, providing flexible and scalable monitoring and performance analysis. Source code and dynamic instrumentation are exploited to perform profiling and monitoring of Grid applications. A novel instrumentation request language has been developed to facilitate the interaction between client and instrumentation services.
