DataGrid Workpackage 3: Information and Monitoring Services. The aim of this workpackage is to specify, develop, integrate and test tools and infrastructure to enable end-user and administrator access to status and error information in a Grid environment and to provide an environment in which application monitoring can be carried out. This will permit both job performance optimisation as well as allowing for problem tracing and is crucial to facilitating high performance Grid computing.

DataGrid Network Workpackage 7 is responsible for the provision of network infrastructure and services for the testbed in close collaboration with WP6. A link to the DataGrid MapCenter can be found here.

Global Grid Forum, Grid Monitoring Architecture (GMA) Working Group: Focused on producing a high-level architecture statement of the components and interfaces needed to promote interoperability between heterogeneous monitoring systems on the Grid. The main products of this work are the architecture document itself, and accompanying case studies that illustrate the concrete application of the architecture to monitoring problems.

Network Weather Service: A distributed system that periodically monitors and dynamically forecasts the performance various network and computational resources can deliver over a given time interval. The service operates a distributed set of performance sensors (network monitors, CPU monitors, etc.) from which it gathers readings of the instantaneous conditions. It then uses numerical models to generate forecasts of what the conditions will be for a given time frame. We think of this functionality as being analogous to weather forecasting, and as such, the system inherits its name.
