The WMProxy (Workload Manager Proxy) is a simple service providing access to the WMS (Workload Management System) functionality through a Web Services based interface.

This service replaces with a Web Services based interface the legacy interface to the WMS represented by the Network Server and provides additional functionality such as bulk submission and support for shared and compressed sandboxes

The WMProxy can be either accessed directly through the published WSDL or through the provided client tools that are:

In this section we describe syntax and behavior of the commands made available by the WMProxy client to allow jobs, DAGs and Collections submission. Jobs in turn can be batch, interactive, MPIbased and parametric. Besides requests submission, the WMProxy client also exposes additional functionality for request management and control such as cancellation, job files perusal and output retrieval.

Requests status follow-up can be instead achieved through the functionality exposed by the Logging & Bookkeeping (LB) with the Python UI Command Line.

What is Grid

The Grid is an emerging infrastructure that will fundamentally change the way we think about - and use - computing. The basic idea is very simple, since it is about harnessing unused resources through the Internet, or a corporate Intranet, to solve major computational problems that require far more computing power and data storage than that available at any single location

EGEE Project

The Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) project is funded by the European Commission and aims to build on recent advances in grid technology and develop a service grid infrastructure
