Enabling Grids for E-sciencE GENIUS and TRIANA, Alberto Falzone – NICE srl BIOINFOGRID Initial training course, Bari, Contents EnginFrame: the Framework for Computing Portals –A lot of history from 3.2 to 4.1 version –The power and the flexibility in computing portals design GENIUS Portal powered by Enginframe: new features, improvements –The Changes in the backend and the stack on the gLite UI –New Features, Improvements –Management of User Security –The JSR168 compliance from GENIUS/EnginFrame DAG Jobs and TRIANA from GENIUS Portal A Sample of integrated Application Summary and conclusions Q & A

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE GENIUS and TRIANA, Alberto Falzone – NICE srl BIOINFOGRID Initial training course, Bari, A grid portal: why and how It can be accessed from everywhere and by “everything” (desktop, laptop, PDA, cell phone). It can keep the same user interface to several back- ends. It must be redundantly “secure” at all levels: –1) secure for web transactions, –2) secure for user credentials, –3) secure for user authentication, –4) secure at VO/VOMS level. All available grid services must be incorporated in a logic way, just “one mouse click away”. Its layout must be easily understandable and user friendly.
