Method, system and program product for visualization of grid computing network status

A method for graphically displaying status of a grid computer network in a Model-View-Controller architecture including a programmably interconnected model object, view object and controller object, said grid computer network including a plurality of computers interconnected by a grid network, said method comprising the steps of:

• receiving grid status information from said grid network at a controller object;
• sending said grid status information from said controller object to a model object;
• creating a first view object representing first status from said grid status information according to a predetermined plan;
• creating a second view object representing second status from said grid status information according to a predetermined plan wherein said first view object represents a plurality of first program objects;
• creating a third view representing a portion of said grid network;
• and
• displaying simultaneously, said first view object, said second view object and said third view in a single display.

A computer program product for graphically displaying status of a grid computer network including a plurality of computers interconnected by a grid network, said computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having computer readable program code therein comprising:

• computer readable program code for receiving at a visualization program object by way of said grid network, grid status information from a plurality of first program objects;
• computer readable program code for creating a first view representing first status from a first aggregate of said grid status information according to a predetermined plan;
• computer readable program code for creating a second view representing second status from said grid status information according to a predetermined plan wherein said first view represents a plurality of first program objects;
• computer readable program code for creating a third view representing a portion of said grid network;
• and
• computer readable program code for displaying simultaneously, said first view, said second view and said third view in a single display.
