An overview of the Triana Problem Solving Environment is provided -with a particular focus on the GAP application-level interface, for integration with Grid Computing and Peer-to-Peer infrastructure. GAP is a Javabased subset of the Grid Application Toolkit interface (being implemented in the GridLab project), and an outline of its current functionality, usage and mappings to three supported underlying middleware derivatives: JXTA, Web Services, and P2PS (a simplified Peer-to-Peer platform) are provided. The motivation behind the development of P2PS is given -emphasising its minimal, but effective Peer-to-Peer mechanisms that allow scalable, decentralized discovery and communication amongst cooperating P2PS peers within highly unstable environments. A summary of three application use cases illustrating the range of scenarios that such a system addresses is also provided.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
