It includes software for examining, constructing and converting DICOM image files, handling offline media, sending and receiving images over a network connection. DCMTK is is written in a mixture of ANSI C and C++.” –dgate server (from Conquest EC Project) –“fully featured DICOM server heavily extending the public domain UCDMC DICOM software”

INFSOM-RI-026753 Coscheduling - EGEE, ETICS, EuChinaGRID meeting on IPv6, CERN, 25 July 2007 9 Coscheduling Testing Methodology Following same philosophy as for building: “Start with a successful local test” An extra level of complication that multi-node testing brings is the need for synchronisation during setup and execution -> can cause deadlocks!! ETICS v1.2 provides a new set of commands and an API for synchronisation Local multi-node tests can take different forms: – –Several workspaces on the same local machine (if your services can cohabitate) – –Several local machines with one workspace each – –Combination of the above

INFSOM-RI-026753 Coscheduling - EGEE, ETICS, EuChinaGRID meeting on IPv6, CERN, 25 July 2007 10 Synchronisation commands Accessors: – – etics-get [options] – – etics-set [options] – –To help local debugging, the option --uuid can be used to query the coscheduling information system – –Using option –b/--block the getter can block until a timeout is reached or a value is set Setup: – – etics-coschedule-local-setup [options] – –The option -o can be used to share the uuid between workspaces Aborting: when an error occurs, the ‘abort’ flag is set, instructing all tasks to terminate in a controlled fashion

11. INFSOM-RI-026753 Coscheduling - EGEE, ETICS, EuChinaGRID meeting on IPv6, CERN, 25 July 2007 11 Current Status Local coscheduling will be available in v1.2 Remote coscheduling will be available in v1.3 Preview remote coscheduling should be available during August
