The Gateway Computational Web Portal 

Overview :

This paper is an overview of Gateway and the services it provides.
The paper describes overall design philosophy, software components,
and relevant issues. Finally, the paper discusses future direction
and technologies to watch.


Review :

As noted in the paper, Gateway has a significant history and has
uncovered many of the problems in actual implementation that are
not obvious during the design phase. Of particular significance
are local HPC policies and security concerns.

The paper does an excellent job of explaining the design decisions
and the components that comprise Gateway. The section on security
is excellent and hints at a move away from client installed
software.

As with most Java heavy systems, the casual reader will need to 
become familiar with much of the terminology and concepts. For
the intended audience however, I feel the level of complexity is
absolutely appropriate.


Recommendation :

Publish as is.
