Abstract

Our grid system META allows CFD users to access computing resources across the network [1]. There are many research issues involved in the grid computing, including fault-tolerance issues, computing resource selection issues, and user-interface design issues. In this paper, we propose an automatic resource selection scheme for executing the parallel SPMD application written in MPI. META uses the network latency time and the speed of the test-run of the kernel loop for the efficient management of resources. The network latency time highly influences the performance of the CFD application on the grid environment. The kernel loop is a loop which consumes the most of the computation time of a CFD program.
