Resource Monitoring with Globus Toolkit 4

The past few years have seen the Grid rapidly evolving towards a service-oriented computing infrastructure. With the OGSA facilitating this evolution, it is expected that WSRF will be acting as the main an enabling technology to drive the Grid further. Resource monitoring plays a critical role in managing a large-scale Grid system. This paper presents GREMO, a lightweight resource monitor developed with Globus Toolkit 4 (GT4) for monitoring CPU and memory of computing nodes in a Windows and Linux environments.
