چکیده

The OGSA-DAI project has developed a client toolkit for the OGSA-DAI middleware. This toolkit comprises of a set of high-level APIs intended to protect application developers from changes in Grid specifications that impact upon OGSA-DAI and remove the requirement to manipulate XML documents either by hand or programmatically. In doing so, the client toolkit aims to improve the usability and shorten the learning curve for developers wishing to write client applications that utilize OGSA-DAI services. This paper describes the underlying motivation for the client toolkit, provides an overview of certain aspects of its design, and presents a number of use-cases to highlight the benefits that are offered.

Accessing Web Databases Using OGSA-DAI in BDWorld

Interoperation of heterogeneous and autonomous data resources is a common data management issue for GRID applications. The OGSA-DAI [1] middleware addresses this need by providing a service-oriented framework aligned with OGSA [2] to faciliate the access and integration of database and semi-structured data resources in the GRID environment. In the BioDA [4] project, we are evaluating the benefi...
