I'm at LACSS this week so I'll miss the telecon. I'll try and put up the LANL use cases we discussed on the last telecon today. -- Nathan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Nathan DeBardeleben, Ph.D. Los Alamos National Laboratory High Performance Computing Systems Integration (HPC-5) phone: 505-667-3428 email: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Graham wrote:

Just a reminder that we will have our regularly scheduled call this coming Wed. Call details are:

Wed - 12-2 pm EDT, 5-7 pm GMT US Toll Free number: 877-801-8130 Toll number: 1-203-692-8690 Access Code: 1044056

I think that we are close to competing the discussion of specific use cases, so lets aim to close these off on this call. Please remember to add your use cases to the wiki, so that we can consider these for the next round. Noticeably missing contributions are from those interested in building checkpointing libraries on top of a fault-tolerant MPI (i.e., w/o having to change the MPI implementation) - if anyone has contributions along these lines, please speak up. We have talked about these in the past, but now we need to consolidate the various inputs, so we can proceed in a coherent manner.

At the forum meeting in a week I would like to have us start working on semantics and an API for support for process fault-tolerance, with the goal to be in position to start prototyping implementations after the Dec. meeting.
