Stochastic ALgorithms for Ultra‐fast Transport in sEmiconductors (SALUTE) is a grid application developed for solving various computationally intensive problems which describe ultra‐fast carrier transport in semiconductors. SALUTE studies memory and quantum effects during the relaxation process due to electronphonon interaction in one‐band semiconductors or quantum wires. Formally, SALUTE integrates a set of novel Monte Carlo, quasi‐Monte Carlo and hybrid algorithms for solving various computationally intensive problems which describe the femtosecond relaxation process of optically excited carriers in one‐band semiconductors or quantum wires. In this paper we present application‐specific job submission and reservation management tool named a Job Track Server (JTS). It is developed using Message‐Oriented middleware to implement robust, versatile job submission and tracing mechanism, which can be tailored to application specific failover and quality of service requirements. Experience from using the JTS for submission of SALUTE jobs is presented.
