Announcing the CHAIN worldwide interoperability demo

2012-09-12

The CHAIN Science Gateway

http://science-gateway.chain-project.eu

has been built using the Catania Science Gateway Framework to demonstrate how the Science Gateway paradigm and the adoption of standards, such as SAGA and SAML, can make e-Infrastructures worldwide, based on different middleware, interoperable amongst each other, at user application level.

Thanks to the collaboration with CNGrid, EGI-InSpire, EUMEDGRID-Support, FutureGrid, GARUDA, GISELA, IGI, JSAGA, SAGrid and WeNMR projects, and with the support of Africa & Arabia ROC, IGALC_ROC, ROC_LA and other Regional Operations Centres, a set of Demo Applications has been deployed on various e-Infrastructures based on EMI (gLite and UNICORE), Genesis II, Globus, GOS, and OurGrid middleware and it is possible to execute them in a simple and easy way.

If you want to run the demo by yourself, visit the CHAIN Science Gateway and follow the instructions to register and sign in.
