3 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation OUTLINE Introduction Requirements to the middleware DORII middleware architecture Main components of the architecture grid services for remote instrumentation e-Infrastructure front-ends application development environment workflow management system parallel application support solutions for scientific visualization User and developer support

4 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation Application requirements to e-Infrastructures middleware A full-featured GUI toolkit that enables easy access and discovering of grid resources and services, and serves a rich user collaborative suite A workflow management and monitoring system for complex scientific experiments An integrated application development environment, with enhanced debugging and deployment features. A visualization client for on-grid data analysis Parallel application implementation libraries, with integrated performance analysis possibilities and back-ends for visualization of performance characteristics.

5 Visualization and Interactivity (Int.EU.Grid) Workflow Management (VLab) Grid Services Core middleware stack (EGEE) Computation Grid Storage Grid Application Development on Grid (g-Eclipse) Grid access and collaboration (GRIDCC) DORII approach Remote Instrumentation on Grid (GRIDCC) DORII Middleware Architecture User-level middleware tools Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation Parallel application support (Open MPI)

6 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation DORII Middleware Architecture Main features IE extends core middleware by interconnection of instruments with the infrastructure Common Library collects together classes and interfaces for obtaining access to the underlying core services (+ IE) VCR act as a central user front-end to the e-Infrastructure, facilitating resource browsing, job management etc. WfMS enables design and management of the application workflow Visualization and interactivity providing components greatly extend application support within the e-Infrastructure Open MPI and MPI-Start support parallel MPI applications

7 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation Remote Instrumentation Services on the Grid The middleware to interface a sensor/instrument INSTRUMENT ELEMENT (IE) Represents a virtualization of diverse data sources and provides the traditional Grid with an abstraction of a real instrument/sensor Provides user clients with an interactive interface to remotely control an instrument.

8 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation Access to grid services Common Library offers simple client-side API for accessing core middleware + IE services deployed on the infrastructure equipped with a single access point for the user-side middleware – a CL client simplified installation procedure for both client and user sides utilized by client-side middleware components currently compatible with gLite

9 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation e-Infrastructures GUI toolkit a full featured front end to the e-infrastructure and underlying services (IE, …) ready-to-use collaborative environment, offering a set of groupware tools (logbook, chat, wiki) entry point for further components (workflows, visualization etc.) VCR

10 Middleware Architecture for Remote Instrumentation Workflows for complex experiments WfMS supports users in defining, managing and monitoring remote instrumentation scenarios client-server architecture with light-weight client side
