BES Interface for GridWay

This component enables the remote access to GridWay's metascheduling capabilities through a BES interface, allowing users to access services provided by different grid middlewares. The BES implementation of GridSAM is used for this purpose.

This component is based on a GridWay DRMAA Connector for GridSAM that enables the interoperable submission and control of jobs by means of its BES interface. Communication between the connector and a GridWay instance is based on the Java DRMAA binding of GridWay, which acts as the local GridWay interface.

This release of the BES interface for GridWay software (1.2.0) contains GridWay DRMAA Connector for GridSAM. This component can be downloaded from the following link:

• BES interface for GridWay 1.2.0
• BES interface for GridWay 1.0.0

Support for these components will be given through GridWay User mailing list. You can subscribe to it following the steps described at globus mailing list guide, the list to subscribe is called “gridway-user”. You can also use this link to subscribe if your mail application is configured to follow “mailto:” links.
