Nimbus Auto Scale (Phantom)

Abstract

In this project we will be creating software that provides VM scaling services to the scientific community.

Intellectual Merit

Discover best practices for highly scalable embarassingly parallel applications using backfill VM techniques.

Broader Impact

This has the potential to change how cloud computing is presented to scientists of non-computational disciplines (biology, physics, etc).

Use of FutureGrid

I intend to use the FutureGrid Nimbus and OpenStack clouds.

Scale Of Use

between 4 and 100 cores depending on the experiment in question
