SCI: Condor DB: Integrating Condor and DBMS Technology

本提案描述了将数据库管理系统技术引入称为Condor的批处理计算系统领域的开发和研究。该工作分为三个阶段：第一阶段为Condor提供数据模型，用于对Condor的操作数据进行底层支持，并为Condor池的管理员提供基于Web的查询工具;第二阶段基本上是对Condor代码进行重构（特别是Condor作业调度器/管理器），使其在卸载某些功能方面依赖于DBMS;第三个阶段试图通过将DBMS的功能和能力转移到应用程序的执行点来降低科学家使用DBMS的障碍。

This proposal describes development and research to bring database management system technology into the realm of the batch computing system known as Condor. The work is described in three phases: the first phase instruments Condor with a data model for underlying support of Condor's operational data, with a web-based query tool for administrators of Condor pools; the second phase is essentially a re-factoring of Condor code (in particular the Condor job scheduler/manager) to make it DBMS-reliant in terms of offloading certain functions; and the third phase attempts to lower the barrier to DBMS use for scientists by moving DBMS functionality and capability to the point of application execution.
