Abstract: | Many scientific simulations and experiments require the coordination of numerous tasks posed by interdisciplinary research
teams. Grids can provide access to the necessary high-end resources to conduct such tasks. The complex tasks and their interactions
must be supported through convenient tools. To address this issue, we introduce a number of Grid abstractions that make the
development of Grid middleware-independent tools possible and allow for the integration of a number of commodity tools. Our
vision is implemented through an integrated approach based on a layered architecture that bridges the gap between Grid middleware
and scientific applications. Our abstractions include specialized services, a Grid workflow engine and language, and Gridfaces
– graphical abstractions that can be employed in science portals and standalone applications. |
