  5. Standards-based Proven tools and protocols Improved performance Improved stability Interoperability Platform independence Ease developer integration Open license GSI replaced by SSL throughout New SOAP implementation, with WSDL support Interoperability Facilitates client development XML Event distribution Interoperability Performance Access Grid 3

  6. Access Grid 3 • Jabber-based text chat • Established standard • Interoperable with large Jabber client base • iChat • GoogleTalk

  7. Access Grid 3 • Integrated FTPS data storage • Stability of established standard • Interoperability with third-party clients

  8. Access Grid 3 • Certificates optional for clients • Streamlines startup for users • Improved user experience • Persistent user preferences • Simpler, richer venue navigation • Tree-based view of venue space • View all venues on server • Improved device support • Integrated scheduling interface

  9. Access Grid 3Integrated scheduling

  10. Access Grid 3 • Network monitoring • Multicast detection • Integrated per-Venue multicast beacon client • Multicast connectivity viewer • Similar to RAT reception quality matrix • Next-generation multicast bridging • Easier firewall handling • Available in all venues, not just select ones

  11. More information • Upcoming events • Access Grid Retreat • May 2006, Ann Arbor, MI • Monthly Townhall Meetings • ~ First Tuesday of each month • Weekly Test Meetings • Thursdays 10am Central • Access Grid home page • www.accessgrid.org • Access Grid portal • AGcentral.org
