Task Lead: George H. Brett ghb@ncsa.uiuc.edu

The Grid Computing Environments Working Group has chosen the The NLANR Advanced Applications Database Clearinghouse as the primary resource for organizing project information. This searchable database will be used for the following GCE activities:

• Find/discover organized information by keyword/topic, etc.
• Submission of GCE projects, along with a list of relevant keywords
• Identification of other projects, resources, and applications that are relevant to GCE-WG.

  We need to develop a list of keywords that you can add to your project submission that will help researchers find your projects associated with GCE-WG. Have a look at the chart below for some early suggestions. We expect to have the first public draft list by mid-February.

  Please contact the Task Leader if you have any questions or suggestions.

  Keyword Work List (Note: is there a rational hierarchy for these terms?)

  • grid computing environments
  • grid-based computing environments
  • frameworks
  • portals
  • problem solving environments
  • grid services
