Computing Center Software (CCS)

Abstract

The Computing Center Software (CCS) is a distributed software package for the management of parallel high performance computing systems. It provides a seamless environment with transparent access to a pool of parallel machines. CCS is responsible for user authorization and accounting, for serving a mixture of interactive and batch jobs and for optimized request scheduling. It provides an automized reservation system and supports unstable WAN connections. CCS is implemented as a multi-agent software, operating in the Unix front-end area of the HPC systems to be managed. It was designed to be mostly independent of the systems served and mostly independent of their operating system.
