SUMMARY
High Performance Computing System Design, Deployment, Monitoring, and Application Integration utilizing Distributed Resource Management packages such as Platform and Grid Engine along with Platform and Open Source monitoring tools such as. Presently involved with Open Source development work for Web Portals for monitoring, submission, and control tasks, jobs, compute nodes. Application Integration is of primary interest since many applications have both batch and interactive needs with varying resource requirements when submitted to a computational grid for execution. Integrations for Computational work utilizing private and public Cloud Computing is of great interest since real and/or virtual machines can be deployed on demand allowing for automation techniques to be tied to application integrations and on Linux/Unix and Windows platforms.
