Abstract

SCEC Earthworks is a scientific gateway designed to provide community wide access to the TeraGrid. Earthworks provides its users with a portal based interface for easily running anelastic wave propagation (AWM) simulations. Using Gridsphere and several portlets developed as a collaborative effort with IRIS, Earthworks enables users to run simulations without any knowledge of the underlying workflow technology needed to utilize the TeraGrid. The workflow technology behind Earthworks has been developed as a collaborative effort between SCEC and the Information Sciences Institute (ISI). Earthworks uses a complex software stack to translate abstract workflows defined by the user into a series of jobs that run on a number of computational resources. These computational resources include a combination of servers provided by SCEC, USC High Performance Computing Center and NSF TeraGrid …
