SciencePAD is currently in its early design and prototyping phase. Most of the functionality of this site is under development and it is not as automated or user friendly as we plan it to be for the final production version. Your contributions to the site with new registrations of users, organizations, collaborations and software, comments and new ideas are warmly welcome. For more information make sure to check the current SciencePAD Roadmap
CERMINE is a Java library and a web service for extracting metadata and content from PDF files containing academic publications. CERMINE is written in Java at Centre for Open Science at Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling, University of Warsaw.
vmimagemanager makes it easy to repeatably perform stores and restores images as rsync, tgz, and cpio.bz2 from libvirt based virtualisation using either shared partitions or raw disk images. Features
mpi-start is a set of scripts to close the gap between the workload management system of a Grid insfrastructure and the configuration of the nodes on which MPI applications are run. The package is used to help the user start MPI applications on heterogeneous Grid sites.
GFAL2 is a framework for Grid and Cloud file access, file transfer and file management.
The GFAL 2.0 library :
The GFAL 2.0 library (gfal2-core) provides a unified and protocol-generic API for file access, file transfer and file management operations in Grid and Cloud environments. GFAL 2.0 allows to build applications using the Grid technologies ( file, GridFTP, RFIO, Dcap, SRM, LFC, Http/Dav, xrootd ) in a transparent manner.
The GFAL 2.0 transfer library:
The GFAL 2.0 transfer library (gfal2-transfer) is an addit
YAIM (YAIM Ain't an Installation Manager) is, as the name suggests, a way of configuring Grid Services. The aim of YAIM is to provide a simple installation and configuration method that can be used to set up a simple Grid Site but can be easily adapted and extended to meet the need of larger sites. To ensure that local administrators can adapt YAIM, it has been implemented as a set of bash scripts. To support th
COntent ANalysis SYStem is a framework for mining scientific publications using Apache Hadoop. It is primarily developed by employees of the Centre for Open Science (CeON) at Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling (ICM), University of Warsaw (UW).
The Hydra Key storage system comprises a service and clients to create, store, retrieve and manipulate encryption keys. The service is a series of key storage services, running on Tomcat. The clients are command line interfaces that connect to the key stores and allow users to perform the basic actions. Files may also be encrypted and decrypted.
GriF is a SOA Grid Framework aimed at running on the EGI Grid multi-purpose scientific applications. The SOA-based organization of GriF consists of two JAVA servers (YR and YP) and a JAVA client (YC). The first server YR (Yet a Registry) is based on the standard UDDI (Universal Description, Definition, and Integration) protocol. Users inspect YR to the end of finding the appropriate YPs. The second server YP (Yet a Provider) makes use of the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) which is the XML-based messaging format established as transmission framework for inter-service communication via HTT
