ERGO & GRIDsFebruary 07, 2000, Keith G Jeffery, cut from the ERGO BBS |

Dear Eric & other ERGO BBS Readers - I am short of time but here are some materials (attached) to get started on GRIDs. First, a paper I wrote on Metadata and presented May last year: it is published in Springer Verlag LNCS Series. It has references to GRIDs stuff (especially the 'Grid Bible' by Ian Foster and Carl Kesselman) and - since it concentrates on metadata - is ERGO-relevant. (Eric - you have seen this one in an earlier dialogue but I am posting it for the benefit of all) Second, I refer you to the paper on Grey Literature from the International GL conference in Autumn 99; the architecture proposed is an 'advanced ERGO' based on extended CERIF. This is not directly GRIDs-related but indicates a possible future architecture for systems like ERGO and emphasises some of the metadata problems. |
Third (and perhaps most usefully)the ppt of a presentation I have been giving within UK which I hope captures
the essence of GRIDs in a succinct way. Finally I attach the paper I wrote for the Uk Government and which started the UK initiative on GRIDs. The UK Paper on Science Funding (including e-Science as GRIDs is named in this context) is at http://www2.dti.gov.uk/ost/ostbusiness/index.htm Following usual scientific ethics, if any of you use these sources in presentations / papers etc I'd be grateful for an acknowledgement... with my best - K |
