Hi Andre, This mail is to answer some questions you asked during OGF SAGA session. 1) usage of monitoring in namespace package : I said that monitoring was used for implementing a progress-bar for file transfer in a GUI. In fact, the monitoring is done through a (non-standardized) metric of task, as you suspected it. 2) usage of permissions in namespace package : As I said during the session, this feature is used and very important for several JSAGA users. However, simple unix-like permissions would be enough for these use-cases, and anyway we don't have any adaptor supporting advanced ACL. As agreed upon during the SAGA Interop Feast, I have made a patch based on the new version 1.1 of the reference Java Bindings for SAGA, in order to enable coexistence of several Java implementations of SAGA as shown in our demo. I will send this patch in a separate mail. Best regards, Sylvain Andre Merzky a écrit :
Hi all,
we have the following sessions scheduled for OGF30:
Wednesday, October 27
Session 1: Time: 11:00 am - 12:30 pm Title: SAGA - General Discussion Summary: State of the SAGA-nation, and open discussion Agenda: - agenda bashing for all SAGA sessions - intro - state of the SAGA-nation, open discussion - open discussion - document business
Session 2: Time: 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm Title: SAGA Interop Feast Summary: showcase SAGA based access to a variety of middlewares Agenda: - TBA
Session 3: Time: 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm Title: SAGA - Working Session Summary: SAGA WG session Agenda: - overspill from interop feast - discussion current work and future steps - EMI/PGI/GIN relations - relations to other OGF groups - discussion of public comments
Thursday, October 28
Session 4: Time: 10:30 am - 12:00 pm Title: Application level Grid Interoperation Now (A GIN) Summary: Synchronizing of the interop efforts in the GIN and SAGA groups. Joint group session Agenda: - TBA. - SAGA demonstrations for the GIN community - GIN demonstrations for the SAGA community - discussion
Please note that session 2 and 4 have some overlap in scope. Ideally, we see the same demos in both sessions (from the saga side at least), but in session 2 discuss them in respect to SAGA development and specification, and in session 4 try to find a common denominator with the GIN efforts.
Please let me know if that all makes sense, if you like to add items to the agendas, etc.
Best, Andre.
