Date: March 19, 2014

Time: 4:00 PM EST

Means: Conference Call

Attendees:

1. Ahmet Erdemir (Cleveland Clinic)
2. Craig Bennetts (Cleveland Clinic)
3. Joy Ku (Stanford University)
4. Henry Kwong (Stanford University)

Agenda:

1. Progress on mockup interface development for the compute gateway.
2. Update on XSEDE application.
3. Update on data management tool.

4. SimTk site bugs & features.

5. Decide action items for next meeting.
6. Other.

Immediate Action Items:

• Stanford University (Joy & Henry)

  • TBD

• Cleveland Clinic (Ahmet & Craig)

  • TBD

Notes:

1. Progress on mockup interface development for the compute gateway.
   • The prototype for underlying infrastructure and remote execution is fully functional on staging servers. The prototype sends e-mails associated with job request, start, and execution (3 e-mails). The system is able to run FEBio with and without modification to the model files (depending on the staging server).
   • Use of g-mail for user notification is problematic with staging servers.
   • Model modification script provided by the Cleveland Clinic team appears to require Python version 2.7. Current servers utilize the latest Centos Linux which defaults to Python version 2.6. Henry notes that workaround is possible. The team needs to choose the Python version, possibly version 2.7 for now.
   • Retrieval of model results and administration of model provision are the next steps. There are few security holes that needs to be patched before this.
   • Once all job administration, submission, and retrieval features are implemented, the Cleveland Clinic team will likely provide Open Knee - Generation 1 for cloud computing.
2. Update on XSEDE application.
   • TBD
3. Update on data management tool.
   • TBD

4. SimTk site bugs & features.
