  text: "We present a software system for the management of geographically distributed
    high‐performance computers. It consists of three components: \r\n\r\n1. The Computing
    Center Software (CCS) is a vendor‐independent resource management software for
    local HPC systems. It controls the mapping and scheduling of interactive and batch
    jobs on massively parallel systems; \r\n\r\n2. The Resource and Service Description
    (RSD) is used by CCS for specifying and mapping hardware and software components
    of (meta‐)computing environments. It has a graphical user interface, a textual
    representation and an object‐oriented API; \r\n\r\n3. The Service Coordination
    Layer (SCL) co‐ordinates the co‐operative use of resources in autonomous computing
    sites. It negotiates between the applications' requirements and the available
    system services. "
