Grid configurations are becoming ordinary environments found in many organizations to target requirements ofhigh performance computing. On the other hand, mobile devices are interesting equipment to provide to users access to a large number ofcomputational resources found in grid environments in anytime and anywhere. However, previous approaches of interaction between mobile device and grid do not have a more automated wayfor submission, monitoring and resources selection for execution of several tasks of a process that works together to solve a single problem. Therefore, we present aframework proposal that addresses these problems. The framework employs a resource matching based on ontologyfor selecting several resources and workflow concept to provide a controlled and more automated wayfor tasks submission and monitoring. We implement a prototype to test our goal. Our case study have demonstrated that theframework has selected more suitable resources for processes, executing itfrom the mobile devices to a grid configuration. Furthermore, mobile users were able to follow step by step how it was the progress oftheir submissions and to obtain detailed information of each workflow task.
