Hiro, Thank you very much! This is good timing since the SAGA starts next Monday and I'm glad that Chris can be a real liaison. --Craig At 06:04 AM 12/6/2004, Hiro Kishimoto wrote:
Hi Craig,
My apologies for the late reply on this.
OGSA-WG will have F2F meeting from this Wednesday to Friday in Washington D.C. We can discuss your request at this meeting if necessary.
The OGSA usecase document describes each usecase at rather high level and unfortunately does not include API information. Thus if you want to know their API information, you may need to contact usecase contributor directly.
The OGSA usecase document includes two scientific grid usecases; - Severe Storm Modeling (Dennis Gannon) - National Fusion Collaboratory ( Kate Keahey )
Since the other are commercial grid ones, grid technology ones, these two are obviously primary candidates for your review.
Hope it helps, ---- Hiro Kishimoto

All,
SAGA is planning a distributed, design team meeting the week of Dec 13-17. The plan is to have teams in Baton Rouge and Berlin that coordinate via Access Grid. SAGA is collecting use cases and looking at existing APIs. We also definitely want to keep OGSA in the loop and encourage close collaboration. At a minimum, SAGA could include all of the OGSA use cases in their review. If someone from OGSA could attend the meetings or participate in some way, shape or form, that would be great. Let us know how you'd like to proceed.

Craig, Chris: Thanks for following up with OGSA (folks). All: Based upon Hiro's message, I've uploaded the National Fusion Collaboratory (nfc.pdf) and the Severe Storm (severestorm.pdf) use cases at: http://cs.cct.lsu.edu/saga/space/Use+Cases For completeness and ease of reference at next weeks meeting, I've also uploaded the entire OGSA document as: draft-ggf-ogsa-usecase-003.pdf and the companion use case document of second tier (i.e incomplete and non-reviewed use cases) as: ogsa-tier2-use-cases.pdf at http://cs.cct.lsu.edu/saga/space/Files I've requested if someone from the two groups could help adapt these use cases to the SAGA template - which isn't entirely trivial. Having said that, the OGSA use cases as they stand are useful and should be read by all coming to the design meeting (and as much of the full Use Case document as possible!). In addition to the above two I found the "Interactive Grid" from the OGSA use case document useful - in that it captures many of the general features required of scientific computing applicaitons. I've included it under the SAGA use-cases, which along with the previous two isn't technically corect until adapted. Hopefully all three will be soon. Shantenu
