Any additions to "example projects" section in OGSA Roadmap?
Hi, Section 8 of the OGSA Roadmap document describes some open-source projects that are working with OGSA concepts and specifications, and by doing so are contributing to the OGSA effort. The current text of the section is below. If anyone would like to add a few lines about any other project, please pass them on to me before the end of this week. We plan to do final review of the document on Monday next week, so please don't delay if you want to get something to me. Please keep your submission fairly short and in line with the style of what you see below, and be specific about what is being implemented. Also note that although the section is currently entitled "Open-Source Software Projects" commercial projects or other non-open-source projects can be included, provided they fit the criteria of contributing to the development of OGSA. We'll change the section heading if appropriate. Thanks! - Jem Open-Source Software Projects OGSA is expected to be implemented by multiple open-source software (OSS) projects and commercial software vendors. OSS projects such as Globus, the Business Grid Computing Project, the NextGrid Project, the NAREGI Project, University of Virginia Global Bio Grid, UK e-Science, and others will contribute. The Globus Toolkit (Globus) is one example of a major OSS grid project. The Globus Alliance is contributing to the development of OGSA by supporting the design and implementation of open-source software that implements specifications detailed in OGSA Profiles, and the participation of the implementers of that software in relevant standards processes. With its current version, GT4, based on early implementations of WSRF and WS-Notification and including implementations of all relevant security standards, Globus provides a comprehensive software infrastructure that allows developers and users to work with OGSA concepts now. Additional standards will be incorporated into future versions of the toolkit as they evolve. The Globus Consortium is a group of companies with a common interest in promoting the development and adoption of the Globus Toolkit for commercial use. Consortium participants also have a strong interest in standards in general, and in OGSA in particular. The team at the University of Virginia (UVA) is committed to implementing several pieces of the OGSA Roadmap described here. Specifically, UVA will implement open versions of ByteIO, BES, RNS, and the WS-Naming specifications. The Business Grid Computing Project (BG) is based on the OGSA Architecture specification. It is developing several services using specifications described in this Roadmap. In particular, BG will make available as open source software implementations of the Application Contents Service, JSDL, and WS-Agreement. BG intends to use the OGSA WSRF Basic Profile 1.0. The National Research Grid Initiative (NAREGI) is a Japanese national e-science grid project aiming at developing a computational infrastructure for supporting scientific and engineering research. One of the primary goals of the NAREGI Project is to contribute to the GGF standardization activities. NAREGI has been interested in, participated in, and, where possible, given feedback to numerous GGF working groups and research groups. Amongst the various groups, NAREGI has recently placed high emphasis on the OGSA-WG activities, being the first project or group to implement the EMS architecture described in the OGSA Architecture v1.0 specification, in its alpha incarnation of the software stack that was released in 1Q 2005. Future plans will have NAREGI contribute to and provide reference implementations for Basic Execution Services (BES), Resource Selection Services (RSS), and Application Contents Service (ACS). ________________________________ 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>
Hi Jem: Here is a text from our Gridbus Project for inclusion in Roadmap: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Gridbus Project at the University of Melbourne is one of the major OSS projects focused on the design and development of service-oriented, utility computing grid technologies. The Gridbus project has designed and implemented open source version of Grid Service Broker, Grid Workflow Management system, GridBank (Grid Authorisation, Authentication, and Accounting Services), SLA-based Allocation of Grid Resources, and .NET-based Enterprise Grid manager. All of these technologies support or committed towards providing a standard compliant (both GGF Grid and W3C Web Services standards) interfaces for application developers.

Thanks Rajkumar, I'm grad to hear that GridBus plans to use WSRF. As you already knows, OGSA-WG defines OGSA WSRF Basic Profile 1.0 in order to ensure interoperability among multiple grid middlewares. https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/ogsa-wg/document/draft-ggf-ogsa-wsrf-ba... Is it possible that future release of GridBus will use the OGSA WSRF Basic Profile 1.0 as their base (instead of pure WSRF)? Does your SLA-based allocation use WS-Agreement 1.0?
