5. (some of) Lessons Learned Practically impossible to occupy a large-scale single system for few weeks. How can we long-run the simulation? Faults (e.g. HDD crush, network down) cannot be avoided. We don t prefer manual restart. The simulation should be capable of automatic recovery from faults. How can the simulation recover from faults?

6. Objectives Develop flexible, robust, and efficient Grid- enabled simulation. Flexible -- allow dynamic resource allocation/migration, robust -- detect errors and recover from faults automatically for long runs, and efficient -- manage thousands of CPUs. Verify our strategy through large-scale experiments. Implemented Grid-enabled SIMOX (Separation by Implanted Oxygen) simulation Run the simulation on Japan-US Grid testbed for few weeks.

10. Approach to gridify applications Grid RPC enhances the flexibility and robustness by; dynamic allocation of server programs, and detection of network/cluster trouble. MPI enhances the efficiency by; highly parallel computing on a cluster for both client and server programs. The new programming approach, combining GridRPC with MPI, takes advantages of both programming models complementarily to run large-scale applications on the Grid for a long time.
