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
The European Globus Community Forum (EGCF) is the organisational body of the Globus community in Europe. Its goal is to boost an integrated approach to collaboration on Globus development and to provide an organisational platform to foster cooperation within Europe and beyond. Its members are users, administrators, and developers, who are applying the Globus Toolkit as their middleware or are interested in doing so.
The metrics portal is the culmination of the work initiated by the MIG (Metrics Implementation Group) and transferred to the Operations Automation Team (OAT) in EGEE-III and now to EGI. The main objective is to have a set of metrics that can help to measure project performance and keep track of its evolution. The portal automatically collects all the required data and calculates these metrics displaying all of them in a single place. The portal agglutinates information from different sources like GOCDB, GGUS, GSTAT, etc. using various connectors depending on the
The EGI Accounting Portal is the global graphical front-end to EGI accounting data. Accounting statistics are available through this portal for the analysis of the different grid users, VO administrators an site administrators. This data is analysed to generate statistical summaries that are made available through a web interface.
The accounting infrastructure is based on the collection, processing and presentation of CPU resource usage records that are derived from the log files on the Compute Element (CE) and local batch farm. The data are proThe Computer Architecture and Grid Group (CAG) at Trinity College Dublin (TCD) has been active in Grid Computing projects since 2002. CAG is currently involved in a variety of EU Framework 7 projects including Helio, StratusLab, SCI-BUS, Mantychore and EMI. Many people within the CAG group are also active members of the Grid Operations Centre which is part of Grid-Ireland.
The aim of Grid-Ireland is to enable communities of users, for example, astrophysicists, geneticists or linguists, to construct virtual organizations above Grid
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
