Abstract
In this paper we discuss the implementation of UNICORE in XSEDE. UNICORE is a Grid middleware tool that was identified by XSEDE to further the areas of remote job submission, campus bridging and workflows. We talk about the overall architecture of UNICORE, a typical HPC environment at XSEDE and why UNICORE is a good fit for this environment. We also discuss the initial efforts made by the UNICORE development team as well as XSEDE's Software development team to integrate UNICORE into the XSEDE landscape. We detail how UNICORE went through the XSEDE engineering process and highlight deployment details at XSEDE. We touch upon how UNICORE is beneficial to the HPC user community. In our final section we talk about future efforts to better integrate UNICORE within XSEDE.
