Abstract :
This paper examines the role of parametric modeling as an application for the global computing grid, and explores some heuristics which make it possible to specific soft real time deadlines for larger computational experiments. We demonstrate the scheme with a case study utilizing the Globus toolkit running on the GUSTO testbed
