Hi Joseph, Before I jump into answering your question, can you please further clarify few questions:
1) Is the display itself rendered by your front end and you are just looking for back end API's to interact with the job? Or are you also looking for a way to develop a interactive front end using Airavata? 2) Does the GPU cluster have a resource manager like PBS infront of it? Even better does it have any grid job managers like GRAM? 3) How interactive is the interactive use case? I mean do you need capabilities to stop, change re-run job like scenarios or is you looking to support remote OpenGL like capabilities?
