Description/Abstract

This paper defines meta-applications as large, related collections of computational tasks, designed to achieve a specific overall result, running on a (possibly geographically) distributed, non-dedicated meta-computing platform. To carry out such applications in an industrial context, one requires resource management and job scheduling facilities (including capacity planning), to ensure that the application is feasible using the available resources, that each component job will be sent to an appropriate resource, and that everything will finish before the computing resources are needed for other purposes.
