Abstract(in English) Existing scheduling systems for the Grid mostly handle huge I/O via a shared file system or simple staging. However, when numerous nodes access a single I/O node simultaneously, major performance degradation occurs, or in a worst case, causes I/O nodes to hang. Moreover, when a user launches a job consisting of hundreds or even thousands of tasks which share the same data set, it becomes extremely inefficient to stage essentially the same data set to each compute node after every dynamic brokering and allocation of the compute nodes. Instead, we propose to utilize a replica management system that embodies a scalable multi-replication framework as a data staging mechanism, where multiple copies could be made in O(1) transfer time as well as make intelligent reuse of already-created replicas in scheduling for efficiency. A prototype executing a sample data-intensive application proved to be quite superior to shared files or traditional staging techniques.
