WS-GAF Project
WS-GAF : The Web Services Grid Application
Framework
There has been a lot of discussion in the community concerning the
relationship between Web Services and the Grid. The Web Services Grid
Application Framework (WS-GAF) is a proposal on how Grid applications could
be built using existing Web Services specifications.
The first of the two applications being implemented using existing Web
Services tooling and specifications utilises the SkyServer virtual observatory and
distributed computational resources in order to locate White Dwarfs in our
galaxy.
This work is the result of the collaboration between the North-East Regional e-Science Centre
(NEReSC) and Arjuna
Technologies.
