JSAGA
Abstract
JSAGA (http://grid.in2p3.fr/jsaga/) is a Java implementation of the SAGA (Simple API for Grid Applications) standard defined at the OpenGrid Forum consortium. Our application allows grid developers to build interoperable end-user application and access CPU and storage resources over different grids and differents middlewares with a single and simple API.
JSAGA does implement a BES adaptor in order to submit jobs on any BES endpoint. it also implements various transfer protocols in order to stage in/out data.
Our aim, using FG is to have access to some BES endpoints in order to develop and test the JSAGA BES adaptor to FG resources.

Use of FutureGrid
I will use FG as a testbed for developping JSAGA as a standard API to submit BES jobs.
Scale Of Use
Very little use: submit a few very short jobs from time to time.
