by JP Navarro 07 May '12

07 May '12

Greetings GLUE WG: Shiraz Memon and I would like to invite interested GLUE WG participants to a teleconference to discuss several outstanding topics, including: * David's proposal to introduce Service, Endpoint, and perhaps other substitution groups * Discuss possible consensus for an XML rendering * Are there any other proposed/outstanding GLUE 2 subject that need to be addressed? * Future teleconferences and possible OGF 35 working session Please mark your available for a teleconference on following poll. http://www.doodle.com/c6mex76unsspnufe Please also reply if you would like to propose additional topics for this meeting or other future meetings. We will prioritize if we end up with too much for a one hour meeting.

proposed changes to glue2 XSD
by david.meredith＠stfc.ac.uk 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Hi everyone, As presented at the last Infosys workshop at the EGI/EMI conference (Munich), please find at the link below a proposal to introduce AbstractService and AbstractEndpoint elements into the glue2.xsd rendering. Please see the readme.txt file contained in the src.zip for details. Also included in the zip file is: - glue2.xsd (with the proposed modifications) - glue2GocdbExtensions.xsd (A schema that imports glue2.xsd and extends the AbstractService and AbstractEndpoint elements in order to define custom Service and Endpoint specialisations. These custom sub types inherit from the base abstract elements). - sample1.xml (an example that is constrained by both glue2.xsd and the extending schema) - sample2.xml (a second example). http://tools.ngs.ac.uk/ngstools/glue2proposal/src.zip Thanks in advance for considering the proposal.

REMINDER: OGF34 Oxford PGI/BES/JSDL/GLUE2 Session Today - 1:30pm in Theatre A
by Morris Riedel 13 Mar '12

13 Mar '12

All, just a gentle reminder about our joint group session [1] across PGI/BES/JSDL & GLUE2 today: Tuesday, March 13 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm Location: Lecture Theatre A The session aims to resolve some issues in re-using the XML GLUE2 rendering by other specs such as PGI/JSDL profiles. Several experts of GLUE2 will attend the session! Some initial supporting material for the discussion with 'issues' for the PGI group can be found here [2]. A broad participation from the community and the different OGF groups is appreciated! Take care, Morris [1] http://www.ogf.org/gf/event_schedule/index.php?id=2429 [2] https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/docman/do/downloadDocument/projects.jsdl-wg/… ------------------------------------------------------------ Morris Riedel Deputy Division Leader Federated Systems and Data (FSD) Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) Info: http://www.fz-juelich.de/SharedDocs/Personen/IAS/JSC/EN/staff/riedel_m.html

glue XSD schema questions.
by david.meredith＠stfc.ac.uk 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hi everyone, Laurence advised me to redirect the following questions to the glue list. Many thanks in advance, David 1) Is this the latest version of the XSD: https://forge.ogf.org/svn/repos/glue/XSD/trunk/schema/GLUE2.xsd 2) (Assuming this is the latest version) - In the GLUE2 specification doc it states "For Grid services requiring a richer set of attributes for the Endpoint, specific models MAY be derived by specializing from the Endpoint class and adding new properties or relationships". However, in the above GLUE2.xsd on line 170, the Service_t defines an 'Endpoint' element that can't be extended with a custom Endpoint specialisation because Endpoint must be of type 'glue:Endoint_t' (<element name="Endpoint" type="glue:Endpoint_t" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> ). The problem is that 'Endpoint_t' is not abstract and so can't be substituted with an Endpoint specialisation using a substitution group. Therefore, shouldn't the Endpoint element be defined as abstract? (so that Endpoint could serve as an extension point allowing Endpoint specialisations to be defined using an xsd:substitutionGroup) . E.g. something along the lines of the following (of course this can also be supplemented by also extending base complex types such as your EndpointBase_t): <xsd:element name="Endpoint" abstract="true"/> <xsd:element name="MyEndpoint" substitutionGroup="Endpoint"> Apologies if I have go this wrong or if I have referenced the wrong XSD (or if this question should be re-directed to someone else). Thanks for your help. David Ps, if it's useful, for a more concrete example see the JSDL-PS spec which allows custom sweep functions and parameters to be defined in JSDL (http://www.gridforum.org/documents/GFD.149.pdf) ========================== David Meredith Scientific Computing Technology eScience Daresbury Laboratory Tel: +44 (0) 1925 603762 Fax: +44 (0) 1925 603100 (Site) Email: david.meredith(a)stfc.ac.uk Skype name: davidismeredith -- Scanned by iCritical.

Hi, Can anyone say if there will be any glue-related sessions at OGF 34? Given that it's in Oxford it would be quite easy for me to go if there is anything. Stephen -- Scanned by iCritical.

Re: [glue-wg] EVO Booking : OGF preparation of PGI / BES / JSDL from Wed, 14 Sep 11 16:00 +0200 (CEST)

Philipp, Steven, Morris, Andrew and all, Concerning the EVO teleconference named 'OGF preparation of PGI / BES / JSDL' on Wednesday 14 September 2011 at 16h CEST (14h UTC) : - I remind everyone that it will be held this Wednesday at http://evo.caltech.edu/evoBeta/koala.jnlp?meeting=MsMiMI282BDMDe9l92Dt9s with password !!jsdlftw - The scope of the agenda is NOT limited to JSDL, but really encompasses BES / JSDL / GLUE / PGI. - Even if I have technical knowledge on all these subjects, I am NOT highly talented as group leader, and I would greatly prefer that the conference leader is a chair of one of the above OGF working groups. In particular, if one of them participates, I would suggest Steven NEWHOUSE, Morris RIEDEL or Andrew GRIMSHAW. - I am quite slow at taking notes, and I would be able to perform this task only if I am NOT the conference leader. Anyway, can anyone volunteer taking notes ? - As input material, I suggest to read 'Requirements for an improved Basic Execution Service (BES)' at http://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc16306 Best regards. ----------------------------------------------------- Etienne URBAH LAL, Univ Paris-Sud, IN2P3/CNRS Bat 200 91898 ORSAY France Tel: +33 1 64 46 84 87 Skype: etienne.urbah Mob: +33 6 22 30 53 27 mailto:urbah@lal.in2p3.fr ----------------------------------------------------- On Tue, 13/09/2011 20:29, philipp.wieder(a)tu-dortmund.de wrote: > Dear Etienne, > > thank you very much for setting this up. > > The agenda for tomorrow is brief: > - Assess status of input material for the whole day BES/JSDL/GLUE/PGI > session in Lyon (some material is already here [1]) > - Define tentative agenda for the respective session including > + Objectives > + Actions > + Responsibilities > + Roadmap > - Check availability for Lyon > - AOB > > Since I am traveling tomorrow I may not be able to join (I will try via a > mobile connection).

All, just a gentle reminder that we have our GLUE2 session today [1]: GLUE2 - XML Rendering Specification Progress and Plans (90 mins) Sunday, July 17 9:00 am - 10:30 am Room Snowbird Firstly, we will have a short update on the XML rendering status and gather feedback from the audience. Afterwards we discuss relationships to existing stakeholders (i.e. PGI, EMI) and identify other possible stakeholders. Finally, we briefly discuss how this fits in to our plan of the BES/JSDL/GLUE2/PGI activities from yesterday. Take care, Morris [1] GLUE2 Session http://www.gridforum.org/gf/event_schedule/index.php?id=2334 ------------------------------------------------------------ Morris Riedel Deputy Division Leader Federated Systems and Data (FSD) Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) Info: http://www.fz-juelich.de/SharedDocs/Personen/IAS/JSC/EN/staff/riedel_m.html

GLUE 2.0 XSD Rendering - progress update
by Sergio Andreozzi 02 May '11

02 May '11

Dear all, I'm happy to announce that a concrete progress was made in aligning the XSD document to GLUE 2.0 final. This is a very delicate work which needs a focused activity and, being delayed for too long, we decided to run a face-to-face meeting at the end of March to make progress. Adrian Taga, Balazs Konya, Shiraz Memon and I met in Lund (Sweden) and worked two full days with the participation of Paul Millar from remote. Thanks to this effort, we managed to update the GLUE XSD and the related descriptive document which now need the final make-up before submitting them for the last call and subsequent public comment to the GLUE WG list. In parallel, Ilya Saverchenko and his colleagues from LRZ are pushing forward the SQL rendering and document. The LDAP rendering is in production since few months already and the specification needs to be read for consistency (action being carried out by Adrian Taga). We are therefore in a good shape to move all the three rendering to last call in the coming few weeks (hopefully before the end of April) and start the public comment phase. As a side news, I'd like to announce that: - the new official source code repository is now hosted in github.com. I have created three repositories (one per rendering) which you can access following this link: https://github.com/OGF-GLUE/ - the descriptive documents accompanying the renderings are available here (with the new draft for the XSD): http://forge.ogf.org/sf/go/projects.glue-wg/docman.root.drafts - the wiki pages have been polished and updated: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.glue-wg/wiki/HomePage Looking forward to writing soon about when all the three specs and documents are ready for last call. Meanwhile, if you are building on top of GLUE XSD, you are welcome to download the new version for early feedback. Kind regards, Sergio -- Sergio Andreozzi - Policy Development Manager EGI.eu - Amsterdam - The Netherlands - http://egi.eu
