However, such resources may either not be appropriate or available every time execution is requested -- therefore requiring the use of a registry service to discover resources dynamically. It is also possible that resources may be owned by institutions/individuals within another administrative domain -- outside the direct control of the application manager. It is therefore necessary to make use of Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to provide the interface between application users making demands on resources, and resource providers determining what should be made available for external use. An SLA may define: (i) requirements that such an application would place on resources (and services) owned by another third party; (ii) check whether these requirements have been met during use. The complexity of an SLA can vary from a static description of resource names (specified in terms of IP addresses) to complex constraints defined as functions that can be evaluated at deployment time. The aim of this special session is to bring together researchers in high performance computing, networking infrastructure and application sciences to demonstrate how SLAs may be defined, managed, updated and used. The following topics provide some guidance on content appropriate for this special session: * Description techniques for SLAs * Static vs. dynamic SLAs * Validation techniques for SLA parameters * Matchmaking approaches for SLA comparisons * Discovering resources based on SLA descriptions * Comparison of SLA and policy descriptions * Penalty clauses for SLAs + legal issues * Managing user expectations via SLAs * SLA descriptions and Quality of Service * Multi-party SLAs * Aggregating multiple SLAs * SLAs in Virtual Organizations (both multi-party and multiple SLAs) * Negotiating SLAs dynamically * SLA-based co-scheduling and resource reservation * SLAs and Registry Services * SLA-based trust management SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submissions must include an abstract, five to ten keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed ten pages including tables and figures. All paper submissions must already be formatted according to the guidelines for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) and represent unpublished and original work. Manuscripts must be submitted in PDF format, usage of LaTeX as a document preparation system is strongly encouraged. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference and present the work. Submissions to HPCC-06 will be conducted electronically on the conference website. IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: March 13, 2006 Acceptance notification: May 29, 2006 Camera ready version: June 26, 2006 Conference: September 13-15, 2006 PUBLICATION The accepted papers will be published in proceedings of the HPCC-06 conference by Springer's Lecture Note in Computer Science (LNCS).

This element (defined below) when present expresses the penalty to be assessed for not meeting an objective. If multiple Penalty statements are present, for example penalty statements expressed per week and per month basis for an availability objective, the longest assessment duration resulting in highest assessment value will be applied. In the above example, multiple weekly violations within a month may result in a higher penalty amount as assessed by the monthly penalty statement rather than the cumulative weekly assessments.

Terminate might still be followed by a destroy operation. The proposal is also to introduce a agreement state called terminated in section 7.1 that says that additional penalty may associated with entering the terminated state. Updates may require changes in the schema (e.g. in section 9.5). The new port type for the terminate operation would be introduced around section 9.4. We also need to introduce some discussion of the relationship between terminate and wsrl:Destroy. Toshi to start to pursue some of these updates, and send the proposed changes to the mailing list. Actually, most of the work had been resurrection of previously deleted material, with the exception of introduction of the Terminated State. (I am still not sure whether introduction of Teminated State is good or bad. Eg. what would be the difference between killing an NQS job using an NQS script (in which case I suppose the Agreement State would end in Complete and Using Terminate to teminate an executing job?) I do have a Word doc but excerpts from it may be easier to see. Please note <<...>> means some words exist but has not been changed so not included to make it easier to see. <> are my comments. Section 7.1 7.1 Agreement States The overall Agreement has a state derived from the Agreement protocol. * Pending. <<...>> * Complete. The Complete state means that an Agreement offer has been received and accepted, and that all activities pertaining to the Agreement are finished This state MAY follow Observed. <> * Terminated. The terminated state means that an Agreement offer has been terminated by the Agreement Initiator and that the obligation no longer exists. This state May follow Pending or Observed. The fact that the Agreement is in this state MAY imply that a domain specific penalty is imposed. <><> The Pending and Rejected states indicate that the responder is not obligated in any way. <<....>> The accepted Agreement is Complete only when all service states are Complete, and the accepted Agreement is otherwise Observed. <> The Terminated state indicate that neither parties are obligated. << End Addition>> <<9.4 is mostly resurrection except for the wording "Terminating an Agreement may result in domain-specific penalty imposed on the Agreement Initiator." <> 9.4 Port Type wsag:Agreement 9.4.1 . Operation wsag:Terminate Terminates an Agreement, if permissible. Terminating an Agreement may result in domain-specific penalty imposed on the Agreement Initiator. 9.4.1.1 Input The form of the wsag:Terminate input message is: xsd:any The contents of the input message are further described as follows: /wsag:terminate/xsd:any Any domain-specific content may be added. This content may be used for a variety of purposes such as logging the termination condition, or evaluating if a domain-specific cause for termination is sufficient to permit the agreement to be terminated. 9.4.1.2 Result The result of the wsag:Terminate operation is always empty. 9.4.1.3 Faults A fault response indicates that the termination was rejected and may also indicate domain-specific reasons. <> 9.5.1 Resource Property wsag:AgreementState The property exposes an Agreement state for the whole agreement as defined in section 7.1. The property has the following structure: * ? <<...>> * ? /wsag:AgreementState This element MUST have exactly one child from: Pending, Observed, Rejected, Complete and Terminated to indicate the overall state of the Agreement resource. Each of these states for the entire agreement have open content so that additional domain-specific state information can be expressed. The individual states are as described in Section 7.1. /wsag:AgreementState/wsag:Pending An agreement state which is in state Pending. <<...>> /wsag:AgreementState/wsag:Terminated An agreement state which is in state Terminated.

We'll meet at the "usual" times next week. Usual is defined w.r.t. the US. However, the US is changing to daylight savings time over the weekend, this should make it one hour earlier in most other parts of the world. Further, there is some interest in holding additional phone conferences during April to try to make sure we're completed by GGF in Tokyo. If we do this, I would propose the same time of day as usual (i.e. 9AM Central time in the US), but on Friday's. I realize this makes it late night in Asia on a Friday night which might be considered unattractive. Please give feedback on the need for additional calls, and on preferred days/times for them. --- Jim -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
