Distributed Monitoring Framework Project

A NC Base Program Project

The Distributed Monitoring Framework (DMF) will improve end-to-end data
throughput for data intensive applications in a high-speed WAN
environments, and to provide the ability to do performance analysis and
fault detection in a Grid computing environment. This monitoring
framework will provide accurate, detailed, and adaptive monitoring of
all of distributed computing components, including the network. Analysis
tools will be able to use this monitoring data for real-time analysis,
anomaly identification, and response.

The goal of this project is to provide the end-to-end monitoring infrastructure
components required in a Grid environment.

The objectives of this project are

  • Integration and enhancement of existing monitoring tools and
    technologies into a Grid environment
  • Development of non-intrusive methods for network capacity
    monitoring and estimation
  • Determination of what network metrics are needed by network-aware
    DOE Science Grid applications
