  26. Access Grid Nodes

  27. User-Interface

  28. User-Interface Semi-Automatic Indexing/Description (DC/MPEG-7) Video Player (MPEG-1, MPEG-2) Shared Annotation/Discussion (Vannotea)

  29. Application Sharing – Multi-Users in Control

  30. User-Interface – Access Grid Node Video Conferencing + Collaborative FilmEd Application

  31. Applications Community projects • Telemedicine - Online medical consultations • CyberSTEM – Networked Telemicroscopy • Master classes (Sports, Performance, Music) • Indigenous Knowledge Management IKM • Smithsonian NMAI, AIHEC, Tribal Colleges, Indiana University

  32. Semi-Automatic Indexing/Description (DC/MPEG-7) & Access/Rights/Traditional Care Content Viewer (e.g. MPEG-2, JPEG2000, 3D objects) Shared Annotation/ Discussion (Annotea) Indigenous Knowledge Capture

  33. Semi-Automatic Indexing/Description (DC/MPEG-7) & Access/Rights/Traditional Care Content Viewer (e.g. MPEG-2, JPEG2000, 3D objects) Shared Annotation/ Discussion (Annotea) 3D Object Annotation

  34. Access Restrictions

  35. Traditional Care Constraints

  36. Specific Gaps • Grid/Web security • Grid/Web management and deployment • Grid/Web service interfaces for scientists • Quality of service • Automated service matchmaking, composition, choreography • Negotiation and contracting • Reputation services • Semantic indexing of all data/media types • Realtime data streams – interpretation and correlation • Ontology development, management, harmonization • Service failure handling • Collaborative Tools for Access Grids • Group visualization and computational steering • Group ontology development • Archival and indexing of AG sessions • Hypothesis testing, decision support • Long termpreservation of research data • Dynamic integration of heterogeneous people, data, services and instruments ‘E-Science Gap Analysis’ Geoffrey Fox, David Walker, June 2003

  37. PANIC Architecture Client-side software modules which control the invocation of preservation services Step 2. Semi-automated Migration Components communicate with each other using platform-neutral standards: OWL-S, WSDL and SOAP Delivers and invokes the chosen preservation service Provides an interface to Software Version, Format Version and Recommendations registries. Provides an interface to match service request to Web service registries.

  38. Open Research Issues Security issues - Shibboleth: • Authenticated access to objects with a URI • Requires manual reconfiguration of web server • Need to restart server to invoke changes Requirements: • Not just about files • computation, data storage, analysis, simulation, visualization, services, instruments, bandwidth • Fine grained access constraints • regions of images, segments of audio/video, columns of databases, functionality • Annotations and Metadata • Dynamically changing policies – short term

  39. Unresolved Issues ctd. • Need to combine policies in real-time • Scheduling of multi-user, multi-site policies • Handling inconsistent, incompatible policies • eduPerson limitations • Working with industry, government, communities • Indigenous – gender, tribal affiliation, status • Ontologies for relating different LDAP schemas • Interoperability • X.509 attribute certificates, SAML assertions, LDAP • VOMS, SAZ, PERMIS, CAS, Kerberos • XrML, XACML • WSRF, WS-Security, WS-Policy • Need to support and combine different policy and attribute formats/languages

  40. Unresolved Research Issues • Add semantics to WSRF • Replace vic/vat • Improve access grid support, usability • Efficient access Grid session capture, indexing, archival

  41. Conclusions • Still a large number of unresolved research issues • Need to prioritize relevant research topics • Feed and test outcomes in global middleware infrastructure
