Hello GRAAP group,
Within the EU BeinGrid project (beingrid.eu), we've been developing an
SLA framework for GT4. It is based on a component architecture (by this,
understand independent modules). I have some material that describes it
that I could pass to the community, including a paper (attached).
Implementation of the different components is finished (nearly all
components are licensed as Apache V2, only one is freeware binary), and
we're currently making sure it all integrates smoothly. I think it
should be advertised to the OGF community (at least the guys and girls
interested in GT4). I also propose that from the work done, we could try
to standardize the SLA frameworks that exist for Grids (GRIA, GRASP,
Unicore, and now GT4); btw our framework is based on the March 2007
WS-Agreement specification of the OGF, which describes SLA contracts
(www.ogf.org/documents/GFD.107.pdf) but is meant to be generic
(different SLA formats can be plugged in) .
What would be the way forward? Who should I get in touch with?
Regards
Igor Rosenberg,

GRAAP session 2 will be used to continue the work on the experience document.
The rest of the session will be used to work on the negotiation protocol for
WS-Agreement.
Agenda:
- Continue work on experience document
- Presentation of A lightweight annotation approach of WS-Agreement based
specifications
- Changes in WS-Agreement
- Presentation of current work in the EU SmartLM project
- Work on negotiation specification
