Ladies and Gentlemen, Recently I was asked by members of the BES working group to describe some of the work that we (the VCGR group at Uva) have been doing on a project we call Genesis II. Specifically, the work is grid technology based on existing and emerging web and OGF standards and is of particular interest to BES because it uses WS-Naming and "proto"-RNS to easy job management and control. However, it's also relevant to ByteIO in so much as it also contains an implementation of some of the ByteIO port types and talks about possible uses for promoting better grid control and usability as well. Later I was asked by Hiro on the OGSA telecon about this as well, so here is a paper that I wrote which details experiences creating, and motivation behind Genesis II. The document contains more information than just the RNS/ByteIO/BES interactions, but those are included as well. This paper is in draft form and has been assigned a University of Virginia, Computer Science Department Tech. Report number of "CS-2006-16". Until the link for that comes up, but draft paper is available off of the VCGR web page at http://vcgr.cs.virginia.edu/genesisII/documents/GenII-Experience.pdf. -Mark -- Mark Morgan Research Scientist Department of Computer Science University of Virginia http://www.cs.virginia.edu mmm2a@virginia.edu (434) 982-2047

Thanks Mark! It is GREAT! ---- Hiro Kishimoto Mark Morgan wrote:
