Hello everyone. I have been looking in how to get information about the
GRIA services and data and I have managed to get the following:
I got all the services that are provided by our example GRIA server in
iwr-geclipse.fzk.de. I can get the information in the following xml
format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="">
<name>http://it-innovation.soton.ac.uk/grid/imagemagick/swirl</name>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<description>Application to swirl an image</description>
<application-inputType>
<name>source-image</name>
<type>jpg</type>
<description>image file of any type</description>
</application-inputType>
<application-outputType>
<name>swirled-image</name>
<type>jpg</type>
<description>swirled image of the same type as input
type</description>
</application-outputType>
</application>
As you can see I also get the inputs and the outputs of the job.
I also managed to get the data staggers that I had created with the
GRIA client in xml format like:
<ns4:title
xmlns:ns4="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">MyData</ns4:title>
<ns5:serviceresourcetype
xmlns:ns5="http://it-innovation.soton.ac.uk/2005/grid">http://www.it-innovation.soton.ac.uk/grid/resource/data</ns5:serviceresourcetype>
<ns6:status
xmlns:ns6="http://it-innovation.soton.ac.uk/2005/grid">full</ns6:status>
As you can see I get the title of the data stagger and whether it is
full or empty. I think this information is enough for the infosystem to
provide. If you agree with me in this, then this means that we will not
need the registry service that Ariel tries so hard to install :)
Nikos.
