I will suggest to use Condor-G which provides a meta scheduling capability in assocaition with Globus. The second option can be to use Community Scheduling Framework(CSF) from Platform Computing. CSF in combination with Globus GRAM can be a viable Meta Scheduling approach.

Where each department has their own scheduler(condor,pbs,SGE) running. We have also decided on Globus to provide the grid infrastructure. We are bit fuzzy on the meta scheduler or hierarchical scheduler which will accept a job request from Globus and hand over to one of the local schedulers. In brief below is the architecture on table. Globus | V Meta Scheduler (which Meta scheduler can fit here) | V ----------------------------------------------------------- | | | V V V Condor SGE PBS Any suggestion is appreciated. Geri Foster
