-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-9720 2011-07-26 02:57:09 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : nordugrid-arc Product : Fedora 15 Version : 1.0.1 Release : 1.fc15 URL : http://www.nordugrid.org/ Summary : Advanced Resource Connector Grid Middleware Description : NorduGrid is a collaboration aiming at development, maintenance and support of the free Grid middleware, known as the Advanced Resource Connector (ARC). The Advanced Resource Connector (ARC) brings computing resources together across institutional boundaries. This concept is commonly referred to as a "computational grid". Historically, grids address the organization of distributed storage of data and parallel computation, but arbitrary services are thinkable. Just like the web, ARC has its roots in the IT infrastructure that was erected to analyze the experiments for high energy physics at CERN. The first release, ARC-0.x, was dependent on Globus, the current release keeps that compatibility but can also be used independently. With ARC, the user gains flexibility with additional services and more supported platforms. The service developer notices that even for persistent functionality across the two major versions, what has been a script on the server side once, that was repeatedly started and ran through, this has now become a service. Those are only started once and can then be queried, which is far more efficient, far more responsive, and is no longer stateless but can observe changes of values over time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: The Advanced Resource Connector (ARC) Grid Middleware developed by the NorduGrid collaboration. ARC brings computing resources together across institutional boundaries. This concept is commonly referred to as a "computational grid". Historically, grids address the organization of distributed storage of data and parallel computation, but arbitrary services are thinkable. This is the first release of ARC in Fedora and EPEL. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #530684 - Review Request: nordugrid-arc - Advanced Resource Connector Grid Middleware https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=530684 [ 2 ] Bug #704835 - Review Request: nordugrid-arc-doc - Advanced Resource Connector Documentation https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=704835 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
