This paper describes our work in creating a case study on optimistic
computing for the Grid using parallel mesh generation. For the
implementation of parallel mesh generation methods we use a Portable
Runtime Environment for Mobile Applications which is extended to
provide support for optimistic control using grid performance
monitoring and prediction. We will use this case study to develop a
methodology for estimating target operating regions for grid
applications. The goal of this project is to generalize the experience
and knowledge of optimistic grid computing gained through mesh
generation into a tool that can be applied to tightly coupled
computations in other application domains.
