Abstract

A system and method for efficiently creating and managing application instances in distributed computing systems is disclosed. Controls are presented for specifying an application for instantiation, a data file for use with the application, and a destination for results from the application. Based on user input, graphical representations of available system resources in the distributed computing system are presented along with a logical topology for application instance creation to permit efficient user mapping of application primitives to available system resources. To further improve the user's ability to map, a hierarchical presentation of nodes illustrating resource and interconnection attributes may also be presented, and an error checking process may be performed to detect problems and offer suggested corrections based on application requirements and performance data collected from prior application executions.
