Applications development

NimrodGrid workflows support the integration of computations, data, scientific instruments and vizualisation software while leveraging multiple Grid resources. Nimrod is a specialized form of workflow which manages the execution of large modeling experiments across distributed computers. Nimrod makes it easy for non-experts to specify very large experiments using a simple high level description language.
Nimrod/GManages the execution of studies with varying parameters across distributed computers.
Nimrod/ONimrod/O allows a user to run an arbitrary computational model as the core of a non-linear optimization process.
Nimrod/ENimrod /E allows scientists to evaluate effects of parameters and parameter combinations in a “Design of Experiments” approach.
Nimrod/KNimrod /K supports the execution of workflows using the Kepler engine.
GriddlesProvides a very flexible inputoutput model that makes it possible to build workflows from legacy applications.

Test and debug

GuardRelative debugging, allowing users to compare data between two programs being executed.
WorqbenchWSRF compliant debug service built on IBM's Eclipse integrated development environment. Rich interactive deployment environment, and supports the creation, management, distribution and debugging of Grid applications.

Deploy and build

DistantProvides an automated application deployment system with a user-oriented approach – simple scalable and secure.

Execution

Active DataThe Active Data Grid architecture attempts to provide high-performance access to distributed data in an integrated environment.
NimrodProvides significant support during execution of parameter sweeps, including a sophisticated scheduler that enforces real time deadlines.

Active Sheets & Nimrod Portal

Address execution phase of the life cycle. Portal allows users to create Nimrod experiments from a web interface. Active Sheets allows users to set up and execute an experiment from a familiar spreadsheet interface.

Message Lab Certificate Authority

Message Lab provides an internal CA service to issue user certificates to Monash users and collaborators, as well as host certificates to Globus service hosts (GRAM, GRAM-WS and GridFTP). Please email us  if one is required. For those who need it, the Message Lab CA Bundle  can also be downloaded.
