“…This model means that it should be possible to seamlessly switch applications (such as Triana) using the GAP to work with new Grid middleware, such as OGSA. One key focus for the GAP is to support Triana P2P interactions on the "Consumer Grid" [29] for running massively parallel high-throughput codes. Part of the motivation behind the GAP Interface is as a stopgap to enable us to develop distribution mechanisms within Triana while the GridLab GAT is being developed.…”

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.

“…Application execution results from the collaboration between various network Peers (see [20]), which act both as clients (for local users' requests) and as servers (for remote peers' execution requests). Locally, each peer may access existing Grid services to execute high-throughput computations.…”

Abstract.A pattern based approach for developing applications in a Grid computing environment is presented, and is based on the ability to manage components and their interactions. The approach provides a formal way of combining recurrent themes in Grid applications, and provides a set of operators that may be used to manipulate the patterns. The operators may be applied to individual patterns or groups, and may be managed as an independent library. The patterns distinguish between service providers and users, and may be used to also analyse the properties of a collection of components, or to vary these properties subject to a set of predefined constraints. Patterns are expressed in the Unified Modelling Language (UML), and operators correspond to manipulation of components within each pattern.

“…The BEI workflows describe the relationships of the individual computational components/ services and their input and output data in a declarative way. In astronomy, scientists are using workflows to generate science-grade mosaics of the sky (Montage, 2002) in order to examine the structure of galaxies (Taylor, Shields, Wang, & Philp, 2003). In bioinformatics, researchers are using workflows to analyse and understand complex diseases (Tan, Foster, & Madduri, 2008).…”

This paper proposes the use of a mobile-cloud by combining mobile devices and the cloud together in a biodefense and emerging infectious diseases (BEI) research application scenario. A mobile-cloud framework is developed to facilitate the use of mobile devices to collect data for, and manipulate and interact with the scientific workflows running in the Cloud. In this framework, an independent trusted accountability service is used to provide data provenance and enforce compliance among the participants of a biodefense research workflow. The authors have implemented a prototype which allows the researchers to use mobile devices to design and participate in biodefense workflows. The authors evaluated the effectiveness of the mobile-cloud with a prototype and conducted performance testing with example biodefense workflows.
