Concepts of interoperabilty and OMII-Europe initiatives

Example: gLite/UNCORE Interoperability for drug discovery A demonstration of interoperability in which the OMIi-Europe Gateway is used to <ul> <li> retrieve VOMS credentials expressed in SAML <li> submit jobs to a gLite grid <li> submit jobs to a UNICORE grid </ul>

security infrastructure based on VOMS with SAML extensions

Job execution using OGSA-BES compliant services Participants will: <ol> <li> use the OMII-Europe gateway to execute jobs via services running on UNICORE and gLite; these services are compliant with OGSA-BES. <li> be given an overview of how to create client software for these services. </ol>

Grid Data Services using OGSA-DAI A practical will introduce the concepts of OGSA-DAI, middleware to expose data resources to grids. These resources may be relational databases, XML-databases, or files - and extensions can be developed to permit OGSA-DAIto support additional resources (such as the Open Geospatail Consortium web services used by the geographical communities). OGSA-DAI supports workflow that executes close to he data, minimising the need for transfer of large amouns of data.

Accounting for use of resources

Next steps This talk equips participants to continue their exploration of OMII-Europe components, via: <ol> <li> <a href="http://training.omii-europe.org/Material.html"> Further training material </a> - both more advanced tutorials that continue from today's talsk and practicals, and introductions to additional aspects and components of OMII-Europe, that cannot be included in an agenda as short as one day. <li> <a href="http://support.omii-europe.org"> Evaluation Infrastructures </a> upon which the components are available . <li> <a href="http://repository.omii-europe.org"> The OMII-Europe repository</a> from which components can be downloaded. This incorporates the <a href="http://www.cern.ch/etics"> ETICS </a> middleware build and test system. </ol>
