REST
by Wolfgang Reichert 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Hi, has anybody experience with REST (Representational State Transfer) as communication protocol? An explanation can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer It looks like it is used as simpler alternative to WebServices. It allows XML over HTTP(S).

Grid Setup
by Kalpita Shirodkar 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Hello, I am very much interested in doing grid research. For my M.Tech. with specialization in Grid I had simulated a Grid environment and have provided a solution for resource optimization. I want to continue with different types of such Grid research. But this time I want to setup an actual grid on my laptop computer. Ofcourse I will not be joining any actual VO, for this purpose but the Grid enviroment should be real with all required softwares and prerequisites. Can anybody give me the procedure to setup a real Grid environment on my laptop. -- Kalpita G. Shirodkar

OVF Data model of the service manager, mapping to OVF Extensions required, e.g. elastic rows (i.e. adding instances to provide more computing power to the service) Security collisions/restrictions (like VM should not leave country) Interval of capacity (instead of fix number) RESERVOIR uses the concept of "manifest", decided not to introduce a new format rather extending OVM <Wolfgang> Provide IBM Böblingen contact (Andreas Maier) for OVF to Mark <DONE> 3.

greeting from Leitao
by Guo Leitao 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

hi everyone, This is Leitao Guo from China Mobile Research Institute. I'm engaged in the research of high performance computing and distributed database. I subscribed the mailinglist of GRIDVIRT-WG, but didn't receive any email. I don't know whether there is something wrong with my subscription, or this group is not active any more. Can anyone tell me the work status of this group? Many thanks! Leitao 2008.8.20
