Community Grids Lab CICC Activities Geoffrey Fox, Marlon Pierce Indiana University
CGL Contributions to CICC • Build Web/Grid services for connecting • Data sources • Applications (simulation, data mining, data assimilation, imaging, etc). • Computing resources • Information services. • Third party tool evaluation • Workflow (Taverna) • Grid tools: Globus and Condor (for interacting with TeraGrid) • Building standards-based Web portal environments. • OGCE grid portal project • JSR 168 Java standards. • This activity will begin in earnest over the summer.
ToxTree Service • An open Java source application by Nina Jeliazkova • Estimates toxic hazard by applying a decision tree approach. • Encodes the Cramer scheme (Cramer G. M., R. A. Ford, R. L. Hall, Estimation of Toxic Hazard - A Decision Tree Approach, J. Cosmet. Toxicol., Vol.16, pp. 255-276, Pergamon Press, 1978) • Could be applied to datasets from various compatible file types. • We are converting this GUI application to a text-based web service
OSCAR3 Service • An under-development open Java source application by Peter Murray-Rust group at Cambridge, UK. (Not published yet) • Extracts chemical information from either a paragraph of experimental data, or a full paper (e.g. melting points, Rf, infra-red and NMR data, and mass spectral information) • Produces an XML instance highlighting the chemical information with an Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) file • We are attaching SOAP input/output engine for a web service
Other Areas of Lab Expertise • Distributed messaging systems for web services and other applications. • NaradaBrokering.org • Apache Axis contributions • Audio/Video Collaboration • Globalmmcs.org • Web Services for Geographical Information Systems • www.crisisgrid.org • Web services for information, metadata, and management • HPSearch.org • Opengrids.org
