HPC folks, Please plan to come and participate in the OGSA Information & Data Modeling session on Tues Jan 30, 11am-12:30pm, in the Bellflower room. As you recall, a decision of the BES workgroup was to remove the information model section from the BES specification. Since then, a separate draft has been written to contain that material and utlimately publish it as an OGF Informational document that can be forwarded to DMTF for inclusion in the Common Information Model. The OGSA resource management design team will be reviewing this document at this session - and we'd like your input. ( https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc14004?nav=1). We'll also be discussing a proposal for information/data modeling using XML and XQuery. See OGF19 schedule for complete agenda for this session.
