"The support provided by OSG and the RENCI team was very helpful in addressing various software and hardware issues related to the distributed processing of large datasets, including job recovery and data compression and transfer. As comprehensive validation of numerical models for structural systems becomes increasingly important, the opportunistic usage of OSG's computational resources offers great leverage in terms of computing power for NEES researchers."

GlideinWMS

Grids are making it possible for any group of users to run hundreds of thousands of jobs in a matter of days. However, the batch slots are not organized in a common pool, but are grouped in independent pools at hundreds of Grid sites distributed among the five continents. That’s where a higher-level Workload Management System (WMS) comes in.
