Integrating Cactus Simulations within Triana Workflows
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we give a status report for an architecture that can be used to view or analyse the output of scientific applications within secure distributed environments. The model satisfies essential criteria for such an environment, such as traversing firewall issues, by constructing a one-way protocol for communication to clients wishing to view the progress of such an application. Our prototype uses the Cactus thorn architecture to implement the protocol, but we have already developed a stand alone version for use with legacy applications. The protocol uses Web service standards for implementation and deploys these within a dynamic environment enabling spontaneous run-time connectivity with the legacy codes running on the distributed resource. We demonstrate this capability in this paper by showing how Triana can be used to view the output of a Cactus simulation of a 3D scalar field produced by two orbiting sources.

Triana as a Graphical Web Services Composition Toolkit
In this paper, we extend the functionality of the Triana problem-solving environment into the Web services world. Triana uses a peer to peer subset of the GridLab GAT interface, that we have labeled the GAP Interface. The GAT/GAP are middleware independent APIs that allows transparent access to various underlying middleware architectures. Current GAP bindings include JXTA and P2PS, an in house ...
متن کاملProgramming scientific and distributed workflow with Triana services
In this paper, we give a status report of a real-world application scenario that uses two distinct types of workflow within the Triana problem solving environment: serial scientific workflow for the data processing of gravitational waves signals; and the distributed workflows that dynamically map to the virtual Grid overlay of Triana services. We briefly describe the Triana distribution mechani...

In this paper we discuss the Triana problem solving environment and its distributed implementation. Triana-specific distribution mechanisms are described along with the corresponding mappings. We outline the middleware independent nature of this implementation through the use of an application-driven API, called the GAT. The GAT supports many modes of operation including, but not limited to, We...
متن کاملAn Ontology-Driven Framework for Data Transformation in Scientific Workflows
Ecologists spend considerable effort integrating heterogeneous data for statistical analyses and simulations, for example, to run and test predictive models. Our research is focused on reducing this effort by providing data integration and transformation tools, allowing researchers to focus on “real science,” that is, discovering new knowledge through analysis and modeling. This paper defines a...
