I started to work as
a PhD student at Karlsruhe in August 2007. The thesis will consist of two
parts, a computational one and a physics analysis. At the moment a computing
cluster at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology is shared among eight
different departments and will also be part of the WLCG as the UNI-KARSLRUHE
Tier 3 site. To run Grid jobs on such a shared cluster the incompatibilities
between the requirements in hard and software of the different user groups
are resolved in using virtualization techniques to partition the computing
cluster dynamically. My current task is to implement this functionality into
the batch system, that it can manage the virtual machines (virtual worker
nodes) to connect the cluster and its mass storage system to the WLCG.
