Hi, Apologies if you receive this multiple time. This originates from Richard Sinnott the OGSA-DAI User Group chair. ................. Dear All, I am putting a workshop at OGF21 together which you may wish to attend. The basic idea is to consider the complete spectrum of data work across OGF, from the higher level vision being defined by the OGSA data architecture group; the data standards being produced such as DAIS and ByteIO; the technologies realising these standards such as OGSA-DAIv3 and then to the end user developers trying to building applications with these technologies. Think of it as microcosm of OGF as a whole. This workshop will take place at OGF21 in the Leonesa-1 room on Tuesday from 3-4.30pm. The agenda for the workshop is: 3pm INTRODUCTION - Richard Sinnott (NeSC Glasgow) 3.05pm The BIG PICTURE::OGSA Data architecture in a nutshell - Allan Luniewski (IBM) 3.25pm THE STANDARDS::OGSA Data standards (DAIS/ByteIO) - Ally Hume (EPCC) 3.45pm THE DEVELOPERS::Applying OGSA-DAIv3 in the Clinical Domain - A.Stell (NeSC Glasgow) 4.0pm WRAP UP/DISCUSSION 4.30pm CLOSE If like me you get a little lost in how OGF the different activities hang together, the idea behind this workshop is to provide a snapshot of what is going on and a reality check of the work in the data area.
