  1. The single point of access to the grid VBrowser (VL-e Toolkit) • Medical use case: functional MRI (fMRI) • VBrowser design • VBrowser features • VL-e Toolkit • Questions + Demo PoC Induction 19-April

  2. Use Case: functional MRI (fMRI) PoC Induction 19-April

  3. PoC Induction 19-April Use Case: fMRI requirements (short) • File system requirements: • Grid FTP access (GFTP) • Secure FTP access (SFTP) • Storage Resource Broker (SRB) • Meta Data management • Grid Services: • Reliable File Transfer • Job Submission/Monitoring • Authentication/Account management: • Centralized account management • Simple authentication mechanism ?

  4. Lots of different tools for different protocols Graphical SRB client (inQ) only for windows Web tools SRB interface clumsy Command line tools (S-commands) not user friendly for end user (Medical Scientists). No integration with other (Grid) file systems like Grid-FTP or Secure FTP Need extensible File management tool default SRB/Grid tools are not 'extensible‘ Need embedded content viewer also Plugins/Mimetype viewers for application data Use case: Existing problems Tools PoC Induction 19-April

  5. Design: Single GUI for 'The Grid' • Single access point to ‘The Grid’ • Virtual metacomputer • All tools (seemingly) integrated into one ‘meta’ or ‘virtual’ computer • No need for extra software (Only java 1.5 needed) • Same look and feel for both windows and linux (but customizable) ? ? ? The Grid ? ? PoC Induction 19-April

  6. PoC Induction 19-April Design: Architectural Overview

  7. PoC Induction 19-April Result: Current status • Grid Authentication • Grid proxy creation/deletion. • User account management. • File browsing + management • Grid FTP • SRB • Secure FTP • Local file systems: Linux & Windows • Meta data attributes • Grid Services: • Reliable File Transfer (RFT) • Job Submission/Monitoring: • Not done (yet)

  8. Location Bar Local Resources Grid Resources Grid FTP Reliable File Transfer SRB (SARA) Result: VBrowser Overview PoC Induction 19-April

  9. PoC Induction 19-April Result: VBrowser Authentication

  10. VBrowser: (Meta) Data Attributes PoC Induction 19-April

  11. PoC Induction 19-April VBrowser: Plugins & Embedded Viewers • Text/HTML Viewer • Standard HTML 3.2 content. • Text Editor • Can edit remote files. • Picture Viewer (gif/jpgs) • Experimental Dicom 3D Viewer • Requires VTK with java bindings • Plugin (Demo) created by Master Student Abdullah Özsoy • Plugin Architecture allows customized viewers for other applications.

  12. Viewers: Example HTML viewer PoC Induction 19-April

  13. Viewers: Example Dicom data viewer PoC Induction 19-April

  14. PoC Induction 19-April VL-e Toolkit • VBrowser is part of VL-e Toolkit • Current stable version is 1.6 • VL-e Toolkit (VLET) is intended as toolkit for grid users. • Other Tools: • Script interface to Virtual File System • VLTerm: a vt100 terminal emulator for ssh access. • Downloadable from: https://gforge.vl-e.nl/projects/vlet/ • Click on the ‘Files’ section and select vlet-1.6.0
