The Grid Computing Environment (GCE) Research Group is principally focused on user environments that integrate access to grid services. This Research Group is aimed at contributing to the coherence and interoperability of frameworks, portals, PSE's, and other Grid-based computing environments and Grid services. We will do this by evaluating and testing protocols, API's and SDK's from current practices projects that are required to integrate technology implementations and solutions. A GCE covers both the tools and the technologies needed to construct environments such as: Portals: users, application, education, web, other Problem Solving Environments Our function is to perform research on user requirements based on how users utilize the Grid and its services, and to identify functionalities, API's, and protocols to facilitate interoperability between users of the Grid and developers of the Grid. This research will be based on what can be done today and what can/should be done with the next generation of software. Our information will have a bi-directional flow between service working groups and those that sit at higher levels of the 3-tier Grid architecture. We will also provide linkage with other relevant communities outside of GGF. |
