Dissemination

This dissemination report presents the basic idea of R-GMA, a distributed information system presented as a virtual relational database. It highlights the potential audiences and interests that R-GMA can cater to, including communities, developers, users, sys admins, and standard bodies. The report also discusses the offering of R-GMA to computer scientists and outlines the next steps for further development and research.

  1. Dissemination Report on Group Discussion WP3 Meeting 4/4/2003<nutt@macs.hw.ac.uk>

  2. Selling Point: R-GMA Is Based on a New Idea Many people have heard about R-GMA, but haven’t understood the basic idea.  need to present R-GMA in intuitive terms: R-GMA presents distributed information as a virtual relational database, i.e. • It looks like a database from the outside, • But it is realised as a society of agents (producers, consumers and their helpers).

  3. Potential Audiences • Communities • EDG, GGF, OGSA/OGSI • Individual Profiles • Developers who could use RGMA code • Users of RGMA (managers, project leaders) • Sys admins • Potential supporters (people who contribute won't start building competing products) • Standard bodies

  4. Audiences According to Interests People working on • registries • messaging systems e.g., pub-sub systems • security • databases • standards

  5. Broadcasting • General papers @ conferences and workshops • Posters • Technical papers on specific aspects • Presentations of components • Articles in trade press“Computer Bulletin” by BCS • Articles in Grid journals • R-GMA website • entry points according to profiles (manager, …) • pointers according to topics (security, …)

  6. What Has R-GMA to Offer to Computer Scientists? • Technical contributions and results?… we rather apply existing methods than invent new ones • There is something more interesting than results: Problems ! Translate R-GMA problems into “language” of research and development communities (security, databases, messaging)  Target application sessions of conferences

  7. Next Steps • Clarify concepts • producer and query types, communication modes, … • important for factories • Concrete steps planned • write overview paper (Werner) • set up R-GMA website (Steve?) • participation in GGF • James in OGSA-DAI • Steve in Relational Services Research Group

  8. Todo • Create R-GMA website • Write survey paper (target which publication?) • Redesign API (along the lines suggested by Andy) • Involvement in GGF based on goals
