Final Glossary 1.5 uploaded

Hi, Thanks to everyone who participated in the "last-call" discussion, especially to Dave Snelling and Dave Berry for the final wording. I've now uploaded drafts 10 & 11 of the Glossary, for Andreas to submit for publication. Draft 10 incorporates the last-call comments and has all of the 1.5 markup, and Draft 11 has all changes accepted. These are the two definitions that changed, per discussion at last week's f2f: Agreement: An agreement defines a dynamically established and dynamically managed relationship between two parties. The object of the relationship is the exchange of services between the parties within the context of the agreement. The management of this relationship is achieved by agreeing on the respective roles, rights and obligations of the parties. The agreement may specify not only functional properties for identification or creation of services, but also non-functional properties of the services such as performance or availability. Entities can dynamically establish and manage agreements via Web service interfaces. See https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/graap-wg for information about work being carried out by the GGF's Grid Resource Allocation Agreement Protocol (GRAAP) working group. Endpoint, end point: A specific location to which a client may bind in order to access a Web service, using a specific protocol and data format. - Jem ________________________________ Jem Treadwell Hewlett-Packard Company 6000 Irwin Road Mount Laurel, NJ 08054 Phone: 856-638-6021 Fax: 856-638-6190 E-mail: Jem.Treadwell@hp.com <mailto:Jem.Treadwell@hp.com>
