  5. Small Devices Increasing in Importance CM5 • There is growing interest in wireless portable displays in the confluence of cell phone and personal digital assistant markets • By 2005, 60 million internet ready cell phones sold each year • 65% of all Broadband Internet accesses via non desktop appliances uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  6. The HPCC Track • The 1990 HPCC 10 year initiative was largely aimed at enabling large scale simulations for a broad range of computational science and engineering problems • It was in many ways a success and we have methods and machines that can (begin to) tackle most 3D simulations • ASCI simulations particularly impressive • DoE still putting substantial resources into basic software and algorithms from adaptive meshes to PDE solver libraries • Machines are still increasing in performance exponentially and should achieve petaflops in next 7-10 years • EarthScope community needs to harness these capabilities • Japan’s Earth Simulator activity major effort with large hardware and software (GEOFEM) efforts uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  7. Some HPCC Difficulties • An Intellectual failure: we never produced a better programming model than message passing • HPCC coding is hard work • Successes of ASCI software are like “Grid FTP” – not parallelizing compilers • An institutional problem: we do not have a way to produce complex sustainable software for a niche (1%) market like HPCC. • POOMA support just disappeared one day (foundation of first proposal GEM wrote) • One must adopt commodity standards and produce “small” sustainable modules. • Note distributed memory becoming dominant again with bizarre clustered SMP architecture – not clear that “wise” to exploit advantages of shared memory architectures uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  8. HPCC Advice to EarthScope • KISS: Keep it Simple and Sustainable • Use MPI and openMP if needed for performance on shared memory nodes • Adaptive Meshes • Load Balancing • PDE Solvers including fast multipoles • Particle dynamics • Other areas such as datamining, visualization and data assimilation quite advanced but still significant research } Are well understoodto get high performanceparallel simulationsUse broad communityexpertise uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  9. Use of Object Technologies I • The claimed commercial success in using Object and component technology has not yet been a clear success in HPCC • Object technologies do not naturally support either high performance or parallelism • C++ can be high performance but Java (as a language) is not uniformly so (it is improving) • Web Services could change this • Fortran (including Fortran90) will continue to decline in importance and interest – the community should prefer not to use it • It’s use will not attract the best students • Not essential to write modules in object oriented language • It is essential to package modules in object framework uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  10. Use of Object Technologies II • There is emerging HPCC component architecture allowing production of more modern libraries (integration Infrastructure) • DoE has very large CCA – Common Component Architecture – effort • Package software (“system and applications”) as distributed objects – not as traditional libraries • CORBA Java and Web Services are not naturally high performance as component models • High performance often not essential for coarse grain objects • Web Services support multiple implementations allowing performance functionality trade-off uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  11. Application Structure • Earth Science applications are typically multi-scale and multi-disciplinary • i.e. a given simulation is made of multiple components with either different time/length scales and/or multiple authors from possibly multiple fields • I am not aware of a systematic “Computational renormalization group” – a methodology that links different scales together • However composition of modules is an area where (component) technology of growing sophistication is becoming available • Needed commercially to integrate corporate functions • Easiest for large coarse grain components • Integration of data and simulation is one example of fine-scale composition which is “understood” uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  12. Object Size & Distributed/Parallel Simulations • All interesting systems consist of linked entities • Particles, grid points, people or groups thereof • Linkage translates into message passing • Cars on a freeway • Phone calls • Forces between particles • Amount of communication tends to be proportional to surface area of entity whereas simulation time proportional to volume • So communication/computation is surface/volume and decreases in importance as entity size increases • In parallel computing, communication synchronized; in distributed computing “self contained objects” (whole programs) which can be scheduled asynchronously uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  13. Some Problem Classes • Classic HPCC: synchronized objects with regular time structure (communication overhead decreases as problem size increases) • Includes PDE and interacting particle based applications • Give scaling parallelism on large MPP’s • Internet Technology and Commercial Application Integration: Large objects with modest communications and without difficult time synchronization • Compose as independent (pipelined) services • Includes some approaches to multi-disciplinary simulation linkage • Hardest: smallish objects with irregular time synchronization • Interesting Los Alamos SDS technology for this uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  14. What is a Grid or Web Service? • There are generic Grid system services: security, collaboration, persistent storage, universal access • OGSA (Open Grid Service Architecture) is implementing these as extended Web Services • An Application Web Service is a capability used either by another service or by a user • It has input and output ports – data is from sensors or other services • Consider Satellite-based Sensor Operations as a Web Service • Satellite management (with a web front end) • Each tracking station is a service • Image Processing is a pipeline of filters – which can be grouped into different services • Data storage is an important system service • Big services built hierarchically from “basic” services • Portals are the user (web browser) interfaces to Web services uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  16. Prog1WS Prog2WS Filter1WS Filter2WS Filter3WS Build as multiple interdisciplinaryPrograms Build as multiple Filter Web Services Sensor Data as a Webservice (WS) Simulation WS Simulation WS Data Analysis WS Data Analysis WS Sensor ManagementWS Visualization WS Visualization WS Application Web Services • Note Service model integrates sensors, sensor analysis, simulations and people • An Application Web Service is a capability used either by another service or by a user • It has input and output ports – data is from users, sensors or other services • Big services built hierarchically from “basic” services SLE (space Link Extension) as a WS uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  17. The Application Service Model • As bandwidth of communication (between) services increases one can support smaller services • A service “is a component” and is a replacement for a library in case where performance allows • Services (components) are a sustainable model of software development – each service has documented capability with standards compliant interfaces • XML defines interfaces at several levels • WSDL at Service interface level and XSIL or equivalent for scientific data format • A service can be written as Perl, Python, Java Servlet, Enterprise Javabean, CORBA (C++ or Fortran) Object … • Communication protocol can be RMI (Java), IIOP (CORBA) or SOAP (HTTP, XML) …… uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  18. Services support Communities • Grid Communities (Earth Science, SCEC, DoD, Earth Science, High School Classes) are groups of communicating individuals sharing resources implemented as Web Services • Access Grid from Argonne/NCSA is high-end Audio/Video conferencing technology • Peer to Peer networking describes a set of technologies supporting community building with an emphasis on less structured groups than classic “users of a supercomputer” • Peer to peer Grids combine the technologies and support “small worlds” – optimized networks with short links between each community member uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  19. Database e-Science is just a pile of XML • Each leaf is a piece of XML either defining a nugget of information and/or containing links to other XML or “raw resources” uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  20. Biased History of Computing • In almost the beginning, there was Fortran and formats (6I5, 5F10.4) for data • ………………………….. • 1993-1997: HTML came along for Web Pages • 1998-…: XML was developed to define information in documents while HTML defining rendering • But soon it became used for specifying all data and their format • 2001: Web Services allowed XML to specify methods (subroutines) as well as data • Java, C++, Python, Perl, .. Fortran are now “just” the insides of XML specified programs uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  21.

  22. What is a Web Service I • A web service is a computer program running on either the local or remote machine with a set of well defined interfaces (ports) specified in XML (WSDL) • In principle, computer program can be in any language (Fortran .. Java .. Perl .. Python) and the interfaces can be implemented in any way what so ever • Interfaces can be method calls, Java RMI Messages, CGI Web invocations, totally compiled away (inlining) but • The simplest implementations involve XML messages (SOAP) and programs written in net friendly languages like Java and Python • Web Services separate the meaning of a port (message) interface from its implementation • Enhances/Enables Re-usable component model of ANY electronic resource uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

Database Database Classic Grid Architecture Resources Content Access Composition Middle TierBrokers Service Providers Netsolve Security Collaboration Computing Middle Tier becomes Web Services Clients Users and Devices uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  25. PaymentCredit Card WSDL interfaces Security Catalog Warehouse shipping WSDL interfaces What is a Web Service II • Web Services have important implication that ALL interfaces are XML messages based. In contrast • Most Windows programs have interfaces defined as interrupts due to user inputs • Most software have interfaces defined as methods which might be implemented as a message but this is often NOT explicit uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  26. What is a Web Service III • “Everything electronic” is a resource • Computers; Programs; People • Data (from sensors to this presentation to email to databases) • “Everything electronic” is a distributed object • All resources have interfaces which are defined in XML for both properties (data-structure) and methods (service, function, subroutine) (Resources are Services) • We can assume that a data-structure property has getproperty() and setproperty(value) methods to act as interface • All resources are linked by messages with structure, which must be specifiable in XML • All resources have a URI such as unique://a/b/c ……. uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  27. WSDL Abstractions • WSDL abstracts a program as an entity that does something given one or more inputs with its results defined by streams on one or more outputs. • Functions are defined by method name and parametersmethodname(parm1,parm2, … parmN) • Where parameters are “Input” “Output” or both • In WSDL, we will have a Web Service which like a (Java or CORBA Program) can be thought of as a (distributed) object with many methods • Instead of a function call, the “calling routine” sends an XML message to the Web Service specifying methodname and values of the parameters • Note name of function is just another parameter uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  28. UDDI or WSIL WSFL WSDL SOAP or RMI HTTP or SMTP or IIOP or RMTP TCP/IP Physical Network Details of WSDL Protocol Stack • UDDI finds where programs are • remote( (distributed) programs are just Web Services • WSFL links programs together(under revision?) • WSDL defines interface (methods, parameters, data formats) • SOAP defines structure of message including serialization of information • HTTP is negotiation/transport protocol • TCP/IP is layers 3-4 of OSI • Physical Network is layer 1 of OSI uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  29. Examples of Web Services I • OGSA (Open Grid Service Architecture) • Integrate Web Service and Grid Concepts and allows Globus to be implemented as Web Services • Audio-Video Conferencing as a Web Service • Integrates H323, SIP, JXTA (etc.) protocols by mapping to single XML Interface • Provides VRVS reflector model from Messaging Web Service • Messaging or Event Web Service provides intelligent routing and buffering of messages • Computing as a Web service • Job submittal, status, composition, data services, visualization • Performance WS allows access to distributed monitoring data, analysis, models, and final benchmarks with interoperable XML interfaces uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  30. Examples of Web Services II • Education as a Web Service • One of easiest to do as object standards well defined (IMS) and little performance issues • Grading, Homework submission, registration, assessment etc. • Universal Access and Web Services • As Web Services allow multiple implementation of a particular interface, one can adjust to needs of particular clients (PDA v. versus, impaired sight etc.) • Can build custom implementations of certain web services for particular communities but re-use others • Collaborative Web Services • As interfaces all message based, much easier to share Web Services than other applications (PowerPoint interface is NOT message based and harder to share than server app) uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  31. Education as a Web Service • Can link to Science as a Web Service and substitute educational modules • “Learning Object” XML standards already exist from IMS/ADL http://www.adlnet.org – need to update architecture • Web Services for virtual university include: • Registration • Performance (grading) • Authoring of Curriculum • Online laboratories for real and virtual instruments • Homework submission • Quizzesof various types (multiple choice, random parameters) • Assessment data access and analysis • Synchronous Delivery of Curricula • Scheduling of courses and mentoring sessions • Asynchronous access, data-mining and knowledge discovery • Learning Plan agents to guide students and teachers uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  32. Distributed Information Actually the XML is distributed all around in a dynamic Grid uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  34. Matching Information/Service Providers and Consumers I • Classic Centralized Approach • Those with services publish information as to location – this is percolated up and down the tree of brokers • At simplest, publish location; better publish location and meta-data allowing easier discovery of value • Those wanting service, look it up using either • Some search of information registered with brokers • A search using a system like Google • Because they were told some key • Like using an encyclopedia; very reliable and fast for well established information uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  37. Matching Information/Service Providers and Consumers II • Peer-to-peer Approach (or how to search the “mess”) • Those with services publish XML advertisements to their friends; their friends may forward it to other friends • Those wanting a service, publish an XML request to a chosen set of friends • Friends use their personal idiosyncratic approach to matching requests with advertisements and to choosing who else should be asked • Analogous to way communities exchange information as in a meeting like this • Uncertain reliability but scales well (communities intra-exchange information independently and supports rapidly varying information (Web Services) uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  39. Technology Trends and Principles • All performance and capability measures of infrastructure continue to improve • Gilder’s law says that network bandwidth increases 3 times faster than CPU Performance (Moore’s Law) • The Telecosmeclipses the Microcosm(but don’t look at Wall Street)…. George Gilder Telecosm :How Infinite Bandwidth Will Revolutionize Our World (September 2000, Free Press; ISBN: 0684809303, #146(3883) in Amazon Sales Jan 15 2001(July 29 2001)) uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  42. Meta-Data and Web Services • Enriching resources with meta-data is critical idea • Enables one to identify and link resources around the globe • Allows one to find out “meaning” of a Web service not just syntax of interface • Semantic Grid implies linkage of Grid/Web services enabled by meta-data leading to “digital brilliance” phase transition • We can experiment with Semantic Web techniques for specifying meta-data RDF DAML OIL • These encompass both straightforward enriched data as well as Artificial Intelligence assertions uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  43. Semantic Grid & Digital Brilliance I • The (XML) advertisement-request matching provides a publish-subscribe linkage between resources – these are people, computers and raw/processed data • The richer the meta-data, the more precise the linkage • This is spirit of Semantic Web – RDF/DAML/OIL metadata enables meaningful linkage • In a physics analogy, resources can be thought of as spins and the meta-data induced linkage as interactions • Phase transitions will occur when “enough” resources are linked – one will get associated spins to align in the direction of new knowledge • Term this digital brilliance uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  44. Semantic Grid & Digital Brilliance II • This suggests ways of quantifying value of metadata induced linkages and ways of identifying where one “should” add more resource specifications • Note that related resources are not necessarily directly connected but rather messages are forwarded through friends • Study of Peer to Peer networks teach us that we can build “small worlds” where distance between resources is logarithmic in number of nodes • This physics based picture provides an interesting underlying formalism to give a theory of e-Science …. • All you need to do is to build a lot of XML Meta-data specification wizards uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  45. Semantic Grid & Digital Brilliance III • EarthScope Collaboratory consists of a set of connected “spins” (being a physicist; resources if I was W3C) • Resources are anything with a digital signature • Raw data, Analysers, Simulators, Simulations, Processed Information, Extracted Knowledge, Scientists …. • The linkage of Earthquake Fault Simulator Web Service to the Greens Function Solver Web Service is as program to subroutine; must have agreement on both syntax and Semantics • The linkage of Granular Physics model to (my) remark that Los Alamos has interesting new simulation technology is less precise • So linkages with very precise ontologies and those which are more qualitative are both part of Semantic Grid uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  47. Web (Unstructured) mode for Google Quite Similar to Directory mode uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"

  48. Portals and Web Services • Web Services allow us to build a component model (see CCA) for resources. • Each resource naturally has a user interface (which might be customized for user) • Web Service <--> Portlet • Natural to use a component model for portal building displayed web page from collection of portlets • So can customize each portlet and customize which portlets you want • Apache Jetspeed seems good open source technology supporting this model • JSP model is better than say a client-side Java integration in that also message based so this is “Portal as a Web Service” uri="http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/presentations/earthscopemar02" email="gcf@indiana.edu"
