Subject: Revision From: "Jerry Clarke " Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2001 15:17:49 -0500 To: Geoffrey Fox Geoffrey, As per the reviewer's comments I have significantly revised the original paper. As you said, they clearly "missed the point". So I reworked the abstract and intoduction. I added a figure and tried to stess that the "data hub" is a "back-end" service on the GRID. Hopefully, I justified this approach and made it clear enough without being overly redundant. Also, I addressed 90% of the other comments directly. Namely, mentioning all figures in the text, defining acronyms, providing a reference for SWIG, and quantified "enornous" ( actually changed it to "large" ( multi-Gigabyte ) since the DOE guys would chuckle at calling that enormous !) I hope all is going well ... talk to you soon. -------------------------------------------------------------- Jerry A.
