The A-WARE project aims to simplify users' interactions with GRID resources by addressing key challenges in middleware and portal integration. It seeks to create a seamless and user-friendly GRID experience, contributing to the development of standards for easier access to GRID resources. The initiative collaborates with various partners across multiple sectors, focusing on one-stop workflow management and standardization to enhance GRID usability. Central to this project is the alignment with European efforts and the promotion of exemplar implementations in standardization.

Research Challenges INSERT PROJECT ACRONYM HERE BY EDITING THE MASTER SLIDE (VIEW / MASTER / SLIDE MASTER)
Research Challenges • Research Challenges are related to A-WARE components: • Workflow management of TSS invocations • User focused workflow orchestration • One-stop, fire-and-(almost) forget, ‘dropping-off and rendezvous point’ • a repository to store workflows; • a workflow design application; • TSS service for gLite.

Standardisation(requirements & use of) • Standardisation Goals: • Main goal is to influence standards proposing exemplar implementations • Pertinent/required Standards: • WSRF / OGSA • Suitable Workflow standard (WS-BPEL?) • Job/service submission & control interfaces (ESI?) • Grid objects representation (GridML?) • Portlet standards (JSR168, WSRP?) INSERT PROJECT ACRONYM HERE BY EDITING THE MASTER SLIDE (VIEW / MASTER / SLIDE MASTER)
Standardisation(approach) • collaborate with other European projects to coordinate the standards activities • focus project work within standards organisations • GGF WGs: project partners’ representative participation • ETSI collaboration?
