Abstract

The grid execution management for legacy code architecture (GEMLCA) describes a solution for exposing and executing legacy applications through an OGSI grid service. This architecture has been introduced in a previous paper by the same authors where the general concept was demonstrated by creating an OGSI/GT3 version of the MadCity traffic simulator. The class structure of the architecture is described presenting each component and describing the relationships between them. Also, the current architecture implementation is evaluated through test results gained by running the MadCity traffic simulator as a C/PVM legacy application.
