Indonesia Grid Research • Research on Grid in Indonesia started around 2006, together with the development of INHERENT (Indonesia Higher Education Network) – INHERENT is Indonesian national Research and Education Network which is currenly connecting about 500 universities in Indonesia. • Objective: Utilize computational resources available in universities or research institutes in Indonesia to develop grid computing infrastructure.
inGrid • inGrid or Indonesian Grid infrastructure developed by University of Indonesia using UCLA Grid Portal consisting Globus Toolkit 4 grid middleware and Gridsphere grid portlet framework. • In 2008, there are two clusters connected to inGrid: – One production cluster from Faculty of Computer Science, University of Indonesia – One research cluster • Applications available in the research cluster: – Povray (3.1g) – gcc – mpiBLAST – g77 – GNU Octave – GROMACS http://grid.ui.ac.id/

Weather Prediction • This Experimental application is using MODIS data from satellite image 1 to generate weather forecast information and displayed in a web page. • Parameters used for this application like Infrared and Water vapor are plotted to TBB (Temperature Black Body) over Maritime Continent. 1 downloaded from Kochi University, Japan
Weather Prediction and Grid • GRID utilization to support Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) research activity which is concerned with the development of a common regional platform for NWP application in Southeast Asia. • NWP experiment will be performed by implementing WRF4G (WRF for Grid) developed by University of Cantabria under EELA2 to find the most suitable downscaling strategy for NWP in South East Asia.

Mitigation of Natural Disaster • The focus area of the Disaster mitigation are Hazard map for the mitigation and the vulnerabilities. – The Hazard map focus on the seismic hazard map, earthquake hazard map, and information hazard map for the mitigation (peoples). – The vulnerabilities focus on the risk impact factors and risk area for infrastructure such as road, electricity, water and other impact to the peoples. • The development of this domain need for digitization, modeling and visualization in data processing that demands Grid-enabled high performance computing
Mitigation of Natural Disaster (2) • Data which is going to be used in Mitigation of Natural Disaster Application will be taken from USGS, NOAA, BMKG, etc., stored in grid. • Develop application – Map showing historical data of natural disaster – Disaster Mitigation Simulation – Firewatch system • Reference: http://www.pdc.org

Firewatch monitoring
Computational Chemistry • Department of Chemistry ITB have some research that might have benefit from the use of the grid, they are: – Molecular Dynamics Study of Thermal Stability of Polymerase I ITB-1 DNA – Computational Study of Spin-Crossover Fe(II) Complexes – Ab initio calculations of hydrogen production mechanisms using graphite as catalysts – Simulation of ZnO with Cd and Cu impurities using LAPW methods – Computational Study of Oxygen Migration in Solid-Oxide Electrolyte for Fuel-Cell
Bioinformatics and Biomedics • The Bioinformatics in Indonesia are beginning around three years ago. The activity is still using several computers with the paralel virtual machine (PVM), for the application in genome squence analysis. • ITB wants to mirror the Genome data bank and made squence analysis for the new structure especially in Indonesia. The squences analysis require the high performance computing and grid facilities . • With the TEIN3 Network , ITB has build the bio- informatics mirror with the collaboration with APAN (Asia Pacific Advanced Network).
Grid Training in Indonesia • Objectives – Spread the knowledge about the state-of-art of Grid Technology – Assist e-science communities in Indonesia to be able to use the Grid – Encourage to provide resources to be added to the Grid Infrastructure
Grid Training in Indonesia (2/3) Training that have been held: • InGrid Training • Training for gLite System Administrator, Dec 2009 – Explain EUAsiaGrid and gLite Grid Middleware – Practice installing gLite Middleware and Set-up Grid Site – Participants consists of some Lecturers/Researchers and mostly system administrator in some Departments in ITB. – Outcome expected: • More gLite System Administrator • Integrating existing clusters to Grid Infrastructure.
Grid Training in Indonesia (3/3) • Near Future Training – Aiming to spread the knowledge about Grid to other universities in Indonesia – Training Material • Training for system administrator • Training for grid users (basics) • Training for application developer / advanced users – Timing: • 1st Quarter of 2010
Obstacle/Constraints • There are various types of applications used by local science communities, plus each application have specific requirements. • The license restrictions of some software which is used by currently running local application also need to be considered when going to run that application on Grid. • Dissemination of information about grid will be done in the form of training. For effectiveness, The training will be divided according to material that will be delivered and the expertise level of the participants.
Obstacle/Constraints • Porting existing application to Grid will be performed together between the team from Science Communities and the team from grid support. • Integrating existing cluster to the grid will be performed by the cluster’s administrator with the assistance from grid administrator.
